Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Apex and Beyond all separate in those suites so I can’t see Ascent will be any different - I hope not as I travel with my mum!
  2. We were on the previous cruise and it was available every day - I sure hope it isn’t a cut back. Wenndy
  3. Would her having the sofa bed downstairs be a possibility? There’s a Bath/shower downstairs. And what is also a possibility is there lift access to both levels. There’s an outer door upstairs too.
  4. Norris and Carol; thank you so much for this! I always love reading your reports. We are on a Baltics sailing on Apex soon - we were lucky enough to be one of the first to sail on her in July 2021 so very excited to be back unmasked this time! Wendy
  5. Love Aneka Rasa - have gone there a number of times! Enjoy your last few days. Wendy
  6. That is a huge help - thank you! I may choose to spend the credit at the casino instead!!
  7. Thank you for your wonderful review! Did your sister enjoy her 1000 flower treatment? Wendy
  8. Thank you for your amazing review! The market in Helsinki has some amazing snacks - I’m sure a lot are fish based but I remember some cinnamon buns (Korvapuusti) we loved and blueberry pie (Mustikkapiirakka). Oh and salty licorice - salmaiakki. As for mocktails I’d challenge the barmen in Retreat Lounge and Eden to make you something. If the martini bar isn’t busy they could probably do some too. Wendy
  9. I’m wondering if they are mixing it up with an infinite balcony. We love the Magic Carpet suites and I don’t see any difference in balcony experience.
  10. I graduated with a BSc Zoology in 1991 from Aberdeen University! Robert Gordon’s is indeed a University now also. In fact I teach at Robert Gordon’s College - the 3-18 school the University developed from. Our pipe band played for the first major cruise line to dock at our new harbour, Aida, just a few weeks ago. Many of my friends went into the oil industry and safety thankfully is greatly improved. However anytime I hear more than one copter go past I worry.
  11. Happy Birthday Iain! @Redkingwhich course/University were you doing/at? Piper Alpha was the eve of my 19th birthday - I live in Aberdeen and over the helicopter flight path and still remember the sound of the helicopters that night. We lost so many that night and my mum who was in insurance at the time remembers going to hand our cheques. Wendy
  12. @chemmo, one thing I thought about with the Edge Villa is that if we ever won a move up bid, we’d plan our days. At night take the lift to the bedroom floor (full bathroom there!) and during the day the lift to the ground floor - half bath there. Well that’s my plan for my 89 year old mum! so pleased you are planning to cruise again - bittersweet I know but you will enjoy it. Wendy
  13. Oh I am so sorry to hear that but I’m glad she went peacefully. You are in my thoughts. Wendy
  14. This is based on sailings on other cruise lines - Rhodes, docked and a very short walk to the Old Town. Mykonos can be either. Split can be either. Kotor (the most beautiful sail in!) we’ve always tendered but smaller ships can dock. Dubrovnik, docked and Corfu docked.
