Celebrity Today Day 4 Cartagena Celebrity Today Day 3 At Sea 2 of 8 Celebrity Today Day 2 At Sea 1 of 8 Celebrity Today Day 1 Miami

Cathy, We also did the famous "Dora" today at Cartagena. It was nice but the heat and humidity slowly sapped us as the morning wore on. Here is a list of our other activities including shore excursions: link

We have arrived at Cartagena, Columbia.

Thanks. I like making the name tags and I know from the very beginning that less than half will show. The people that do receive them seem to like them so that’s good enough for me. My blackjack luck cannot be worse next time.

I presume your problem is from using the room supplied USB outlets? We have mainly have been using our AC charging adapters which means we have been plugging in directly to the electrical socket (both the USA socket and the Euro socket with an adapter). We have not had a problem with that. My wife has been using the USB outlet at the desk wall to charge her watch. The power draw on that is pretty low; we have not had any problems with that either.

Sorry, that it took me a minute to understand that. My reading skills seem to deteriorate when I am at sea and that's why my wife is in charge of reading the "Be back onboard by...." sign at the gangway. The spaghetti bolognese does not appear to be on the everyday menu. I cannot comment about the children's menu. Back in the day, our son used to order it for room service every late night.

Tomorrow begins the intense phase of the itinerary--3 ports + Panama Canal during the next 5 days.

We had a total of 139 people in our roll call which included partners and friends. Here are some demographic information (note the data is raw and unweighted).

Thank you very much.

Tonight was our first Evening Chic Night. The food was very good. I had the Chilled Pear and Honey Soup, Baby Spinach and Treviso Salad (photo), and the Shrimp Scampi (photo). The dessert course took a long time and consequently we decided to skip the show. When we got back to the room, our cabin steward hadn't turned the room down yet. We could have gone to the casino to give him some time to get the room made up, but that could be expensive so we just told him to skip it tonight. No big deal. I always drag my suit/ties with me for EC nights including our last cruise to Asia this past Dec. This time was no different. I will say that I saw very few suits tonight--probably the fewest I have seen.

I could not really comment on your post until now because I am on the ship. I think the use of the words "rust bucket" aren't consistent with the electrical outages that you suffered--I would not be happy about extended or multiple outages of power either however. I have been on Summit for 3 days now with another 12 days to go. I have seen about 2/3 of the ship by now and I am very impressed with her physical condition so far. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that Summit underwent her extensive Revolution makeover which took a month to perform back in 2019. So she doesn't look like a 25 year old ship at all but rather a 5 year old ship because of her makeover. Now I have seen some rust out on our balcony: But that is a closeup view (1 foot way). here is the same rust from 10 feet: My wife and I are quite satisfied with our balcony. I have seen only two other issues: 1. minor water leak in the utility corridor that connects our cabin to the hallway. We pointed it out to our room steward and maintenance came out to fix it immediately. 2. One of the mirrored panels in the hallway ceiling had a crack in it with duct tape over it. These mirrored panels are clearly part of the original ship. The ship's passenger elevator interiors--which are one of the first things on a ship to take a beating (and sometimes vandalism)--are in immaculate shape.

The other two blackjack tournaments will be held on Fri Apr 26 (At Sea Day 3 of 8 ) and Thu May 2 (At Sea Day 7 of 8). Including today, all 3 blackjack tournaments are being held on all three Evening Chic days. at 3 pm.

Are you talking about the Spaghetti Bolognese?

Our fifth round table took the option of having the cards reshuffled after watching Round 4 go down in flames. It didn’t matter. By the time we got to the next to last hand, four of us were already out including me. And the remaining two didn’t have enough to place among the current top six scores (6th score was $2400).
