Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. That is my one big complaint about the E Class ships is no front of the ship viewing area for us peasants in steerage.
  2. Yep, we were chasing them all week long in Fiji. Stayed a little further away from the 10' bull sharks. It would still make me fill the wetsuit if it came 2' from me from behind like that guy. At the end you can hear me laughing in the regulator. The guy is kind of a dick so wouldn't have minded seeing him take a little chunk out of his fin tip 🙂
  3. We did the excursion through celebrity in GC a couple years ago. Wetsuits will be available for rent and they were $10 then. It is an ok dive but if he is an advanced diver you are better to arrange diving with a private company. They cater to the least trained diver in the group and everybody else has to dive at that level. If there are enough divers they sometimes split the group into advanced and beginners so you get more wreck penetration and more bottom time than the beginner group.
  4. Lets hope they also tried the great looking but god awful deserts at the buffet and something can finally get done about that. How hard can it be to bake a cake and slap some frosting on it that actually has some flavor to it.
  5. When we have our half cow done at the butcher I tell them to grind all that up as hamburger. Makes a great hamburger but definitely not a good steak or even a roast.
  6. If this replaces a Nassau port day then sign me up.
  7. I have a number and have logged in but it says I have no points and i'm at the pre lowest level of C&A. Do I need to give them my Celebrity # to get cross line benefits or is it in their system already?
  8. Doing our first RCI cruise this summer. Question is does my loyalty status on Celebrity kick in right away for this cruise or only after completing the first RCI cruise?
  9. There is a trail right behind the train stop in town, we hiked up to the upper falls. The kids believed all the fools gold in the sand by the stream is real gold. Nice hike. Don't be intimidated by the first 1/4 mile, it gets a lot easier.
  10. Yes, lot of walking and no not for children that young, sorry, didn't see that part of the original post
  11. Roatan's ORIGINAL Fun-n-Sun Group Tour & Best Cruise Ship Excursion | Sloth Hugs (boddentours.com) Roatan: I would recommend the fun n sun group excursion with Victor Bodden at Bodden Tours. Adults and kids will love it Costa Maya: Would recommend Maya Chan all inclusive beach club www.costamayabeachresort.com Cozumel: The Amazing Race Cozumel was a lot of fun and you get to see and learn something at the same time.
  12. We sail out of sydney and are spending a couple days there pre cruise. We debark in Aukland and will be flying out the same day. I know we need the Australia visa but would we need a NZ visa if not staying?
  13. We were on this cruise too. Wasn't sure what to think about the IV balcony thingy but we also loved it. In fact my wife insisted on having the window open all night long. Only sound was the ship cutting through the waves, no wind sound but there was a constant nice breeze all night long. Food was great, Rooftop Garden surprised me as to how good it was. No waits anywhere on the ship and the staff was great. Really don't know why there was a port day in Nassau, it is so far out of the way and to me a worthless stop. It seemed to also cut our port time in other ports due to having to basically back track to Ft Lauderdale before heading south.
  14. Norwegian might be a good middle ground between RCCL and Celebrity. Big but not goliath ships, great entertainment with a lot going on it seemed and surprisingly good food. Geared towards the middle agers more I would say.
