    Especially the desserts. Made with no dairy. Tasteless. Shame as something I like to indulge in, but do not have at home.

    Many areas on Aurora were extremely cold during port visits, particularly overnighters. My cabin was cozy but corridor outside was freezing as I was two decks above the gangway opening. But only to be expected when in the Arctic in Winter!

    Love these! Happy April Fool's day.

    Had WiFi on Aurora when we were close to shore and, of course, docked. . No roaming fees in Norway with Vodafone either.

    Nothing kills norovirus except strong bleach (for sanitizing surfaces - not recommended for your skin!) Only hand washing (properly) with soap and warm water will remove the virus from your hands. Wish the ships would explain this to pax (although some will not take any notice anyway!) Just best to look after yourself.

    Toulon old town is lovely, as is the beach (for lunch) which you can reach via the little train. Was happy when it replaced Marseilles, which I do not like, last year.

    Why not just make this pool adults only? Mind you some of them are probably just as bad!

    Saw pilot boat arriving very early, during our dinner.

    Everything I asked for was available on Aurora. Got off her yesterday. Great cruise.

    No problems at all on Aurora with WiFi. Better than it used to be.

    Got a quote on Aurora last week. Extra obc and 10% off on Select price only. Deposit was 10% (£450). However, I was interested in Saver price and was quoted £200 more than my TA. Did not book.

    Not in Alta until day after tomorrow. Can't complain as had excellent weather last year. Sorry for those doing it for first time though.

    Aurora just abandoned Honningsvag visit due to blizzards. Hopefully better weather for Alta.

    Don't see why not as long as you have proof you bought it on board (otherwise they charge corkage). However, some ships' MDRs do not keep wine for next night so if you don't drink the whole bottle you will have to carry it away!

    No, as Eavesway are not contracted to P&O. Intercruises are so the ship waited for them. Looks like insurance claims will be difficult for the poor souls who lost their holidays.

    Keep seeing offers on select, with increased obc. I would prefer a cheaper select cruise price with no obc!

    Swede and peas today. Things are looking up!
  18. Fionboard
    Upside down, but not much difference!

    Not as much snow as last year.

    I don't know how it is supposed to be cooked. It was cubed, soft and very nice for a change.
  21. Fionboard
    I am currently in E128. Very nice. Roomy and shower only.

    On Aurora now. Green beans still prevalent but last night I had carrots and celeriac!

    On Aurora in Andalsnes today. We waited for the last Intercruises coach as they are contracted to P&O. Unfortunately, Eavesway are not, so we left without them. Doubt Eavesway will compensate their passengers so poor people will probably have to claim on insurance.

    Remember when you got a quite comprehensive paper questionnaire at the end of your cruise. This was replaced with a reasonably comprehensive one online, after your cruise. Now I just get a FEEFO one regarding the ( rare ) excursions I do. Not bothered as I don't believe they take any notice anyway. Just a PR stunt to keep the masses happy.
  25. Fionboard
    Same here. Always do the FEEFO one and hear nothing more!
