Short walk from where the shuttle drops off to the Livorno C train station then 5.8€ rt to Pisa C. Walked to tuttomondo (Keith Haring c1989) off to the tower area (too crowded) finally off to some old walls before wandering back there way I came (-> Pisa C -> Livorno C -> shuttle). Thinked I only logged 5 mi

Not only is it a new place (VISTA LOUNGE) it's a new time (10:30am) Please help get the word out! 📣

No line at the Pantheon today for those paying in cash. Long line for those with a voucher or paying with credit card. But it's only 5€ pp so figure out if you want to save 1/2 hr or just drop cash. I was behind 3 people and the only delay was someone trying to redeem the voucher Ceiling is amazing!!

Please share your date& pictures so we have an idea of what it's like.

Yeah I twist it around in my brain to be "room cost = ×" just like hotel rooms. Most hotels don't discount for single occupancy but do add an extra fee for 3rd & 4th person. That said, I book A LOT when lines reduce the solo supplement If I didn't travel solo I wouldn't be traveling and that's not happening

N/C Shuttle service from Livorno port -> town .... is drop off close to the train station? I plan on taking the shuttle you recommended to Pisa but the train station is just a block from the 'Keith Haring' house and that'll be my last stop in Pisa.

Will fill out form but still bringing the other verifications as I've been turned away from that shul before. Getting excited!!

If you have never been to the synagogue it is a "must see". Beautiful. They have tours. Also, there is a museum attached to it. We really enjoyed it. Hope to make services. Assume it's Modern Orthodox so I have my letter, verification from my shul, and will carry original passport. Each shul tends to be a little different .... turned away in Sydney with all that, accepting in at Melbourne, Paris, London, St Petersburg with virtually nothing except communicated with all offices beforehand

@Raburgardt 'reservations' for anything are a way for the Entertainment Director to gauge events popularity .... anyway thats what one of them told me. The only event it really seems to matter to is the arts & crafts hour (guess it's to know how many kits to make up? They have run out)

I never worry about pickpockets. My purse is so small I don't carry much and my phone is always in the front jeans pocket only. They're not THAT handsy 😝

I'm staying a few meters from their synagogue!! But I've been warned about the train from FCO -> Trastevere -> bus to hotel. No issue walking around the area

Thanks @LACruiser88 and @dickinson. Good to know it's like the Emerald, Majestic, and Royal Princesses. Its actually cheaper for them for me to do my own plus I've got new clothes i want done in cold water Yes @Crystabel. I can't count on something being fleet wide. (Experienced differences on vegan menu variety -- Enchanted Princess was a good one with 6 main dishes each night but less variety than the Emerald Princess which has an 18 night menu rotation)

I don't make my MOT noticeable on trips but I have been advised to hide my star before. (I only take it off if I'm having surgery. That would make it 2× in my lifetime) So I won't wear a VNeck top in Rome but will attend Shabbat Services there. I'm ready!!

Nice!! Any issues getting wine onboard?

Interesting! Really even. Expected more Elite / Platinum then Blue

@LACruiser88 I noticed it said a '72 hr turnaround.' Does GS provide laundry tokens in case I need something quicker? I pack light (22" carry on)

United Airlines just canceled my VLML (Vegetarian ovo-lacto) meal. So if you are Vegetarian not vegan like me & booked on UAL .... heads up

OMG so crowded!! Tourism is way up

Got it!! @DCThunder I'm getting it at the port in the future but this time was 'free' (ordered before charge). Personal issue is that if I'm cruising from across the pond or down under I go up to a week early. So getting at home won't work next cruise ....

Informed Delivery sent me a text alert but it does show up in the app

Let us know what you think about the Island after it was given an extra stateroom deck

Mine was not checked in at LA but is now in SF with delivery tomorrow by 9pm! Enchanted. Are you onboard?? ================ So I'm going to think of it as a 10 day delivery.

@mtnesterz i usually don't leave this early for a cruise but I don't want to just do an overnighter in Rome area. And we won't get mail Saturday (Veterans Day) @Upper Bob thanks, looking forward to it Monday as informed delivery still shows it intransit to USPS. But that 1st step has been skipped before and I can't imagine a scenario where the whole ship's medallions weren’t sent from manufacturer enmass

Getting a little nervous. My medallion was shipped on the 3rd. LA USPS is still waiting to receive it (slow boat from China?) and I leave in a week. FWIW I'm green but now wondering if I'll get my medallion before I fly out

@1965 Perry & Shirley, by now the info should have been sent to the ship & you should have your excursion tickets in your stateroom either on boarding or shortly afterwards. Anyway that's always been my experience (yes I book disembarkation tour every cruise). And as Rick @Rick&Jeannie said, excursions are closing or closed to facilitate that See you onboard!!
