  1. From a civilian mariner who supported our troops in two war zones, I say "Bravo Zulu" for a job well done to all current military and veterans, for a job not well enough recognized.

     

     

     

    To all those who "gave the last full measure of devotion" to their country, I say "God Bless and Thank you".

     

     

     

     

    YES! Well said.

  2. We are, admittedly, not total wine snobs, but do know decent wines from bad..We were recently on the Constellation and had no issues with the selection in Blu, on the Premium Package. Frankly, we were surprised, since the ship was due to go into dry dock at the end of our cruise.

    The sommelier was happy to suggest wines and to open bottles for us to sample.

    Perhaps, it is just luck of the draw...

    by the way...chisoxfan! We are too!

  3. We are fresh off of the Constellation and there was an offer that included OBC for your current cruise, in addition to the usual offers.

    We are already booked up, so I didn't pay rapt attention, but I know that that offer was available.

  4. Thank you for doing this live report! Cruises outside of the typical Caribbean/Alaska/Med have always intrigued me. I am loving this!

     

     

     

    Silly question, do they still have the black and white cookies at Cafe Al Bacio? That was my first ever black and white cookie, I am a sentimental person ;p

     

     

    Your first ever...you poor thing! Black and white cookies are the best...I hope that Bacio will re-stock by the time we board next week.

  5. Ephesus is a wonderful place to visit, and if things become iffy, the cruise ship will not dock there. That being said, do take advantage of a tour there. There is remarkable history and it was one of the highlights of my whole trip when I visited Turkey about 10 years ago. Good luck!

     

     

    Agreed! We visited there twice, while on cruise, and enjoyed it very much. If you do tour, try and include the mountain village of Srincinci.

    An extra added attraction to an already interesting port.

    Very sad for the people of Turkey, who rely on tourism....

  6. An opportunity to visit Ephesus w/o the crowds shouldn't be missed. Ephesus, like all of Turkey, is wonderful and a long way from Syria. Go and enjoy. You'll cherish the memories!

    Agreed! An incredibly interesting country. While in Ephesus, a visit to the town of Srinci is also a treat.
