• Medallion Ceremony, Great Band

    Loyalty Award Ceremonies are a good sea day event. We seem to have crossed the 'bronze medallion' level this trip for exceeding 100 actual sailed nights (we've apparently done 127 nts) which is different from their star-based Mariner Society which tallies promotional levels in addition to actual sailed nights for something called 'cruise day credits' (we reached 4-star status on this trip, or somewhere over 200 cruise day credits -- almost everyone agrees that the best benefit to that level is free laundry. Yeah!) One couple was recognized for 3300 nights!!

    Men. 😆
    Lastly, the 'Dam Band' did a Santana night -- they were great.
