Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I am Scottish and we only have 2 seasons in the year, winter and July 😁
  2. The wok-fried beef, in the Xiang menu at the Chefs Table, is sublime
  3. I avoided the history talks, I’ve lived through most of it 😀
  4. What was their topics on that cruise Deec? I only remember the 60’s Beatles photographer and the English woman who sailed the Atlantic with her son
  5. The attached photo shows the charging points in the rooms. With regards to the bedside sockets, from left to right they are as follows: USB-A (fast charge), USB-A, US style socket, European style socket. The cable on the left of your photo, along with it’s plug, will fit into the US style socket. The cable on the right of your photo will fit directly into either of the USB-A sockets. The extreme left socket will charge quicker. Hope this helps
  6. One negative on the ship, was that the steam room was inoperative for the entirety of the cruise as well as on the previous cruise
  7. There are no budget airlines in Viking’s UK preferred list, hopefully the link below works: https://www.vikingcruises.co.uk/oceans/my-trip/preferred-airlines/index.html
  8. If you are flying from Heathrow, you will probably be booked on BA (direct). As you are from Sheffield you may choose to fly from Manchester, but this would involve a transfer either in Heathrow with BA, or Amsterdam with KLM
  9. Food was hit and miss on that cruise, although for me mostly hit. However the beef on the Xian menu in the Chefs Table was tremendous.
  10. These are being kept on Deck A on Viking Star, they are recorded every day at 11 am and the result played in restrooms throughout the ship
  11. This is our second cruise with Damian as CD and in my opinion, he’s the best I’ve had. He takes the time to chat to as many people as possible and contrary to what has been said, is forever praising his team along with other ship’s crew. His videos on Viking Today are also very informative and interesting
