We have been on Azura a couple of times, but April we be our fist time on Arvia. Looking at all the dining options I don't think we will be using the MDR much. I'm sure if we do, the food will be fine.
We just enjoy the shows. Some are better than others, but that can apply to all entertainment. On NCL epic they had some American entertainers. The Beatles spoke in Liverpool accents. Quite amusing.
We booked on board. We went to Glass House at lunchtime to try and book the evening. The man said we aren't taking bookings. If you just turn up we will sort it out . Best about 6.00. We arrived at 6.00, we're given menus and a drink and told the wait will be about 45 mins. All very civilised. If we could have booked it would have been for 7.00 . We would have gone for a drink pre dinner.
We had 2 one week cruises on Azura this year. We didn't try to book Sindhu, or epicurian, but ate in the Beach House twice and Glasshouse once, on each cruise.
We did 3 staycation cruises. We enjoyed them all....Back on a cruise ship...yay. If you consider the ships had been parked up for 2 years and the entertainers were delivering pizzas, they ramped things up quite well. Perhaps all those crew members thought ' In the old days, passengers used to smile.'.
I had a brilliant idea for a Christmas present for DW. I looked on line. It had to come from America. Oh well, looks like plan B, not such a clever idea, but a pretty good alternative, delivery by 16th. I wondered how it was doing so I pressed the tracking button. It's ready to leave the Airport,.....in California.
Thanks for asking. Unfortunately we are going to a restaurant for Christmas lunch. I will probably be OK for hacking off a few chunks of turkey and ham on boxing day. Opening the wine bottles may be difficult, but I'll manage.🤣
We have a few, like the rastaclaus we got in Jamaica. I can still look at them Graham. My son is going into the loft to get them all out on Saturday. Gail and him will decorate the tree....I am allowed to supervise .🧑🎄🎅
We seem to get lots of vouchers and offers, particularly restaurants. DW also has a discount card. You are very rarely able to use both together. Its a case if picking the best one.
