In contrast Just read a nice article ( AARP) about Kelly Ripa..turning 50/51. She looks great, sexy, no tell-tale wrinkles, well dressed, seems secure in herself, and her life ; and is a lady... does not seem to need candles or eggs or goop! Would make a nice ship's godmother or a fun Celebrity to cruise with!

This was a great tour....for some areas I used the elevator. The laundry area was so interesting..workers there showed so much pride in their work...They spend most of their day in a windowless area but great team spirit! Well worth the price of the tour. easy to use headphones, smaller groups and pvt visits.

Thank you for the posts ..that's the one we need. Models are a nice size. Not really a toy. As soon as the ship sails, we will try to get one for grandson #2. And maybe get the crystal one for ourselves..we will have our car at port! I also bought a nice necklace ( in a jewelry store on board)..of the pool square? that changes color..forgot the name but will look for something similar on BEYOND. Just something as a remembrance of the cruise!

Is that an a la carte venue otherwise? On EDGE, we were unable to get a lunch res there..we would like to try it! If you have time can u check if colored resin ship model is sold in the store..need it for grandchild gift. Thanks

It was a low point for Celebrity when it associated with this .......! IMHO...Does not empower woman but degrades them and men! While bringing in the cash....

You were lucky! Stay away from areas under/near the band/ dj and dance floor... too many parties, zumba etc.. Our supposedly wonderful midships M class ( AQ) room literally vibrated at sail away, Celeb staff quickly confirmed it was true, and we moved our cabin by dinner time. Nice quiet area closer to front of ship...loved it.

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!

Found some on line but VERY expensive..looking for the ship store version!

Thanks for the tip.. picked up a few EB tees on sale. I will look for the pants . Dh usually wears regular tees and golfer style collared shirts , and Tommy Bahama button down silk shirts for dinner. Everything I have is easy to pack, wrinkle free and easy to rinse out in the sink if needed. We usually do 2 free bags of laundry...but only things that cannot be ruined..like socks and undies. frizzy cruise hair is also par for the course!

Took me forever to log in today so hope this post works. We already have the colorized ship model of EDGE..for #1 grandson. Now that we have # 2 grandson, we would like the same from BEYOND when we sail in Nov. Can someone on board or going soon let us know if this model is available in the store on BEYOND... thank you..

,Cancelling was the right thing. People, please do not fly unless you are 100% sympton free and isolated for the 10 days. We most likely caught Covid on our way home from Florida....on the flight or in the airport. We flew home on a Wed. I felt quite sick by Sat.. then my husb was sick. Both of us have tested pos. ( his test at a walk in..mine at home) . We were surprised. Now we have to isolate for 10 days. He is missing work, golf etc. We will also miss grandparents day at day care.. can't babysit or see them at all. We have fairly mild cases, no fever, but still not well...No meds and told not to re test. Our Life is disrupted...but would hate to ever pass this along!

Last we saw..quite awhile ago...rockers were lined up along the Ramp in EDEN..

Keep in mind that the Water included in the basic package is in the grey plastic btls. It is not Spring water and many find it awful tasting, others do not mind. We find it ugh! We have a package but will bring on some spring water and buy whatever we can on board..

Love all the photos...esp the Wild Gardens of Acadia And if course, ones of the two of you having fun!

There are sometimes ship's excursions offered for those with limited mobility. Vans have lifts, smaller groups, and often a tour that does not require getting on and off at numerous stops. Maybe Celeb spec needs dept can help or excursion dept,

The SV, esp middles, are worth waiting for.. staterooms are larger than the IVs and have an oversized outdoor aft balcony. March is not that far out,,popular new ship and itun! Maybe a TA can help if they have SV or suites on hold in their inventory???

I'm with the PENGUINS!

Hope we can still have our E + perk of free minutes. That's enough for us and we would not pay more just to have faster e mail or any e mail

Thanks again for more great photos..great eye!

Rain and beating sun are variables..the pathways are narrow. We drop off one of us with the luggage and carryons. Dh circles back to park and then walks back to ship entrance . If not overloaded you could walk with wheelie luggae. But is not just right across the street. The design was all about making a fancy suites waiting area but nothing changed for parking. Busses and cabs are easier!

airport is the least appealing to ys.,even with suutcases 17th street has many choices from bagels to hotels with a nice menu.,and close to stores for wine purchases and last minute items

We have been required to buy the Cekeb cruise ins separately for awhile now. Not convenient and not wrapped into funal payment. And when we cancelled to lift and shift during Covid times...no refund! Now we just buy an independent policy for medical and evac..better coverage and service!

Good to know. Maybe next time we will look into this option. This time around we will drive from Venice..one night stay at a pre cruise hotel and paking at the port ..pain in the neck!

What a great great link! The photos are wonderful...everything BEYOND! Thank you for the link.. Le Voyage did not look very appealing physically but the menu there must be the big attraction. We decided not to try and book there... Glad to see pics and menus of luminae..and Le Bistro..our go to lunch favorite!
