Chapter 4,
Our Celebrity Silhouette Amazing Sail Away!!!!!!!
Well folks, welcome to the most amazing sail away ever. I am going to beg you to watch this video, I know it a little long, but you have to see it. This sail away was absolutely amazing, so much energy, we loved it!!!! The coast guard made an amazing experience for us,and the added bonus were the surfers on the FLOWRIDER!!!
If you don’t want to watch the entire thing, PLEASE!!! do me a favor and fast forward to minute 9:20 and watch it from there. But I highly recommend watching it in its entirety.
Here is a short video of some kids in the flowrider
After watching the video now you can follow with the pictures, they greatly add to the story!
I am not sure why this HAL ship needed this tug there. anyone?
The captain, Pilot (I think) and another bridge officer.
These guys are so much fun!
Now this is when the fun started, blowing sirens and asking us to take pictures and oh boy did Gambee get a bunch of them. Everyone was cheering and yelling, by far the best sail away!!!!
He loves the attention!
What a great way to retire!
Here we go engines at full blast!!!!!!
Bye bye folks, see you in a week!
Great picture, love it!
There was a flock of birds surrounding this vessel, probably all the bait!
Ok lets keep on going,
After sailaway it was time to finally try the Celebrity Silhouette Molecular bar, I will briefly go over some information here about that bar. My overall experience here just ok, let me explain why. The bar did not measure up to the Celebrity Silhouette martini bar in entertainment value at all, I think the main reason is because of the large amount of time required to make each drink. The bartenders are too focused on the drink, there is one main bartender and on that comes in at peaks times. Now don’t get me wrong they are great bartenders, but they might lack a little in entertainment. In addition to that I found most drinks to be just ok, I did try them all and I was only impressed with a few of them. Most drinks are fairly weak, but then again I tend to drink very strong drinks, although even my mom said they were weak.
I also felt really bad for them because about every 5 minutes you have someone coming and asking for a vodka tonic, beer, gin etc. You can tell that they are over that, but something tells me that it comes with the territory. I must of heard that phrase “we only serve molecular drinks” about a thousand times…
Anyway here they go,

After that we took our drinks up to our rooms to unpack and get ready for dinner, when I got there I found a little note saying that my TA had added $75 to our account. I thought I lost that money during the change of package, it was a welcomed changed =).
I used one of the wipes to clean the railing in the balcony, it was so windy that it got dirty very fast. This would become something I did every few hours throughout our cruise (weather).
After sometime we decided to head down for dinner, today we had no reservations so we decided to go the Grand Cuvee MDR.
I took a few pictures on the way to the Celebrity Silhouette Main dining room,
