  1. Good Afternoon, Sydney is a wonderful place to visit. Today the sun is shining and the winds are strong. I found the craft fair. It moved to a new location and is much smaller. The terminal has plenty of places to part with your money. I bought a salmon from a local artist. It's really nice up close.
  2. Good Morning, the Zaandam has three happy hour times. 4 in the Ocean Bar and Crows Nest, 9 in the Sea View Bar and 10 in yhe Ocean Bar. Despite the wording on the daily it appears that all drinks are 50% off. I got another blueberry beer and it was 3.50. Last night's dinner was in the lido. Food and service were on par with other ships. We finally went to a show last night, the comedian Drew Fraser. We saw him on the Eurodam in April and is a good show to catch, unless you are easily offended. Today's When and Where
  3. Good Morning from Sydney, the weather forecast was for rain today but the sun is breaking through. Today's meal suggestion sounds good. We would like to visit Iceland and I showed DH the itinerary that @dfish is looking at and it appeals a lot. Only problem is that work won't give us 25 days off. No agenda for today. We will just walk around and see what's out there.
  4. I don’t know. If it happens I’ll try to remember to share.
  5. Good Afternoon, the morning started out cool and overcast. The sun came and turned into a beautiful day. Zaandam in Port. It was sad to see that all the shops in terminal were gone. I was told that they would be back late July. Trying a PEI beverage while waiting for happy hour.
  6. Good Morning, it was foggy overnight so the ships horn chirped all night until we approached the dock. Breakfast in the lido was a bit busier this morning but still no long lines. Today's When and Where
  7. Good Morning from Halifax, thanks for the daily fleet report. It was a very foggy night and the ships horn kept sounding until we approached the dock. Not sure what's for dinner but assume it will be from the lido. I let the concierge know that I will be complaining post cruise about the 5* internet change. I hope everyone has a good day today.
  8. Good Evening, dinner was at the Canaletto and the food and service were good. Forgot to take pictures. The concierge was to have marked the reservation as a five star free dinner, she didn't. The Canaletto staff corrected the mistake. The shopping area is still too warm but slightly better than yesterday. Our cabin seems comfortable tonight. First towel animal and chocolate.
  9. Just received some disappointing news from the concierge. The five star internet perk does not apply if you bought the package before boarding the ship. The Mariner Society said that the perk only applies if bought on board. This is contrary to previous experiences since reaching five star. Based on this anyone can get the five star perk. She will credit me the $30 for the first 7 days but not the second.
  10. We didn’t mind it all. The tender to and from was quick. Since the ship was behind the island I couldn’t get a picture of it from shore.
  11. Today's free excursion was the Zaandam tender to get into port. Returning the water was a bit rough so the ship moved a bit to help with tendering.
  12. We decided on Canaletto for dinner. Had the taco bar for lunch.
  13. Hello Again, last night after dinner we walked through the shops and found them to be overly warm. So warm that staff even complained and apologized. When we got to the room the same situation. Since we were exhausted we had no trouble falling asleep and at some point the room did cool down. I'll monitor and may request a fan. Since I'm still on cat time we had breakfast in the lido. No lines and service was good. Today's When and Where The dine in room menu.
  14. Good Morning Everyone, I didn't post after dinner since lights were our by 9. We were both tired. We had dinner in the Pinnacle Grill. The food was good although DH's steak came out rare instead of medium well. They quickly got him a new one. We all had the same dinner choices. Saturdays When and Where The clothesline Bacon was again a nice treat. My steak was very good with the sauce. The onion rings were fantastic. Birthday dessert for DH and Sandy.
  15. Good Morning from Bar Harbor. Thanks for the daily fleet report. The captain said that there was a chance of rain today. Do far the skies are clear. Today's meal suggestion sounds good. I'm not sure what we will have for dinner. I hope everyone has a good day tonight.
  16. Cabin 7003 I ordered flowers for DH Bed with large tv. Dressing area. Sofa Bathroom with tub Outlet by the bed. Only one. Outlet in dressing area. USB in dressing area Balcony
  17. Good Morning, check in was very quick using Verifly. Waiting to board the ship.
  18. Good Morning Everyone, thanks for the fleet report. I’ll celebrate bartender day today on a BHB. Today’s meal suggestion sounds good but I’m planning on clothesline bacon and steak in the Pinnacle Grill tonight. Mona, aka 3am alarm clock, had me awake way too early. Will do some last minute packing, electronics, and top off the food and water bowls. Our ride is set to arrive at 10 to pick us up. I hope that everyone has a good Saturday.
  19. They’ve been taking turns sleeping on my suitcase. Tucker has been extra needy for hugs. They’ll be in good hands with the sitter.
