Reflection LIVE 2/3/24-2/11/24: 8 Crazy Nights of ABC Islands

Great to jump on board another of your live follows. Sorry to hear you’re having to travel solo. We’re on this itinerary this time next year on the Reflection. It was the first sailing we had cancelled at the beginning of the pandemic 3 weeks before sailing. Sailed on the Reflection twice before and love that ship, who doesn’t ?. if you see AA Katou in the casino bar tell Mr Wesley says hi. -

Happy Birthday Jim. I’ve never sailed with an actual birthday on board ship . We’ve just booked an ABC islands sailing for April 2025 on the Reflection and I’ll actually pass 70th birthday while on board. As well as celebrating a special birthday it’s an itinerary we had booked in 2020 that was cancelled just before sailing owing to the Pandemic. Really looking forward to it now.

We stayed at the Pan Pacific some years ago. In fact it’s so long ago they were still building that MRT station. It was our first time in Singapore after doing a land trip which included Thailand and Hong Kong. It was an awesome hotel back then. Hope it’s still the same.We have been back several times but stayed further along Orchard Road and around Clarke Quay Thanks also for opening your heart and letting us have a glimpse into your life story.

Liveish trip report - Celebrity Silhouette - 11.10.23
bluwes replied to rwright261's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Our friends are on board and they are stuck in Lisbon as the port is now closed due to the weather conditions.They cannot leave until the winds drop. Vigo has obviously been cancelled tomorrow and the intention apparently was to sail slowly behind the storm, taking two days to reach Southampton. Could still be delayed reaching home. -

We got off the ship this morning after our brilliant 11 days sailing the same itinerary that you will be enjoying. There are some awesome staff on board who can’t do enough for you. We were select dining on deck 4. Usually went to the dining room around 7.45.walked straight in most nights but 2 nights we had a beeper because we asked if we could go into Bobbys section where he was waiter and Firmin as the Sommelier. Both of them were great and a credit to Celebrity. Food was excellent although with less choice. We did Murano and Tuscan and both were at there usual high standard. Look out for Atish one of the deck waiters up on 14. It was a full ship and I’m told yours will be the same, which meant the Ocean View was mad busy when a lot of people arrived back on board after being in port. The Martini bar staff seemed a bit quite early on but as the days went by they became more confident and had the usual laughs with them. Maybe they were new. oh and our best friends Gary and Lynne got on as well today, they’re a Good laugh. enjoy the cruise -

We’re on board the Silhouette this Saturday from Southampton to the Canaries with additional stops in Porto and Lisbon in Portugal and Vigo in Spain.,we’ve been to the Canary Islands numerous times on beach holidays. So your description is spot on. -
