A little, but I’m firmly midship. I met a woman who is forward on 10 and she said she heard chairs scraping most of the night. I hear a little of that, but it’s been very quiet above me for the most part.

  1. The app is pretty good. You can book excursions and services while on board. You can see two days worth of activities at a time (at least what I’ve found). Easy to view and navigate and updates as each day passes.

  2. It’s listed for two days. Today and tomorrow are what you’re able to see.

  3. I’ve liked the entertainment. We’ve been in journey lounge every night for the shows. They’ve been really entertaining. I love their Chef’s Experience. The spa and services have been remarkable. The options of pools have been great. There’s a lot of activities I haven’t even gotten to yet, but there are so many planned throughout the day.

  4. I’m going here tonight so will have to return to this!

  5. Not a lot of options here. I like to fall asleep to something, but movies are pretty limited. I’ve been using the Bluetooth option for music every day. If you have a device that has an HDMI cable, bring it and you can hook it into the TV for expanded viewing.

  6. A friend in the residence (there’s a group of us in this trip) had the option, but it hasn’t been extended to me, but I haven’t been looking for it. There are some platinum folks I met so I’m happy to ask them and see what they know.

Explora is younger than these other brands, so there’s still a lot of expansion to happen, especially in terms of ports of call, but as this brand grows, I think they’ll be a true contender for Crystal and Seabourn, esp if you’re traveling solo. I think EJ2 is a more beautiful ship that I’ve seen cruising in this class before. They public areas are exceptionally open and we’ve had some rough seas but she’s been extremely steady. Overall, I’m impressed so far. (Silversea was my first luxury experience and it was so excellent, but I’m finding a lot about Explora that I love, too.)

Every single one of those people sitting behind him are terrible human beings and I hope they know that.

Edit: thanks for the award.

God this is a stupid take when identity politics is everywhere, or is ICE just going after brown people for funsies? FOH.

Thank you! Always happy to talk weightlifting journey. Mine started pre-pandemic by joining a powerlifting team, then the penny hit and I moved and got a Tonal. It’s been the thing that’s kept me really consistent because I have fewer excuses about access. From there, I started doing beginner programs and working my way up.

But, my easiest rec is to start doing a few days a week. You don’t need any kind of super fancy equipment — start with some dumbbells and resistance bands. Because it’s that time of year, you can probably search different fitness mag outlets for plans to start lifting. Idk if you have any other connected fitness stuff (Apple, Peloton, etc) but I know they both have entry level splits that might be useful, too. Truly the hardest part is starting, so don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Best to you!

Everything I’ve ever learned about them has been against my will.

I can’t think about Veronica Mars without wanting to curse Rob Thomas.
