Wonderful thread. Thank you so much for all the updates. I am looking forward to them every day.
If it's not too much to ask, and if you do go back to Rudi's Sel De Mer, could you ask if they make birthday cakes for guests who request them? We are celebrating my husband's birthday and wanted to surprise him with a cake. I know I can buy it in advance if I call the reservations number, but apparently the cake can only be delivered to the ship on embarkation day.
