Thanks all. I believe it doesn't hurt to ask. What you do with the information is up to you. This is a discussion. I have taken some useful tibits of information and will try to recall them on my trip. I was asking the opinion of experienced O cruisers since I am not. O is known for their food and that is why I posted on O thread and not another.
Walking, skipping a meal, eating sea food, ordering off cayon menue once in while, gym , protein, dressing on the side and portion control are all important words to remember. Yes, I will enjoy myself as I am foodie and and an avid traveller. I appreciate all the sound suggestions.

I read somewhere on these post that you can watch the culinary classes(not demos) on board for free, to take notes etc. Is this still a go?

:eek:We just returned from a b2b cruise in Europe and no matter how hard I try , I always put on 6-8 lbs. Does anyone have a system not to gain wait and do you stick to it once on board? Presently working hard on the extra weight gained on the previous cruise and more ....till my next cruise in Nov.

This was a most memorable tour in Belize. You can snorkel in many places but you will not be able to float down an underground river for miles in the jungle.

The port is not far the Palace on the Bosphorous; Dolmacie palace I think. You can walk there ;10-15 minutes. They have a chandelier of Baccarat crystal that is over 100 ft. Its pricey to get in but memorable.

Can you get a warm breakfast in a concierge room? When they serve it do they put down a table cloth? On Seabourn they would raise the coffee table place a tablecoth and silverware and serve the breakfast.I like the set up . Is it similar? Can you order a thermal container for your coffe every morning? I like it hot.

I have dual citizenship. French/US.
There is no visa requirement for French citizens to enter Brazil
Should I try to save $160.00?
Oceania has my US passeport on their registration info I provided
Can I still use my French passeport when arriving by ship in Rio?
Do I use it again at the Rio airport to check in/
Lastly when I arrive in the states do I use my US passeport?:confused:

I have been sailing the Med over 25 years. And when My friends say "you are going there again! Its definitely by choice. I love the food , the vistas, the wine. I never tire of it. sometimes the ship is just transportation and I eat the local food in every port. Sometimes the food on board is better than on shore and I eat more frequently on the ship. Sitting on Rambla Cataluna, drinking a glass of sangria accompamied ny some sizzling garlic shrimp can't be repetitive...only enjoyable. When I travel to the same city , I always look for a different experience in addition to my favorite ones. This year I am venturing out to explore some Asia. I do it reluctantly, Because I am so fond of the Med.:o:o

I know that answers are available somewhere, but I am a little confused. We live in Miami. No problem to go. When I go to the website for a visa, do I fill out the form on line and send it electronically or do I download it fill it out and take it in? Second, Proof of income: what do you bring in?
Thx
