  3. Years and years ago it wasn't like that but very few remember when it was out front raw with the rest of the vegetables and you put everthing yourself on a plate(vegetables) (small like soup bowl) for the raw meat) and then handed everything over to the cook to cook. Showing my age here I guess 😞
  4. Was the meat raw or pre cooked within your reach to put your own meat on your own plate before handing it over to the cook?
  5. Remember that room well, that is where they put us quarantined people when getting off Jewel in September. Thank God we were only quarantined 1 day.
  6. Wish you would have took a few pictures of the set up of the vegetables and the meat choices. Had kind of a debate on another thread just how Royal is doing their stir frys now.
  7. Boat tour and walking tour were Royal's tours...The Halifax tour was independent,found the guys name from Cruise Critic thread. Yes the RIB boats tours were also Royals,,they are expensive but well worth it from people talking and their pictures. They book up fast too. So keep an eye out on your Cruise Planner.
  8. First stop was suppose to be in Halifax but port stop was canceled because of Hurricane Lee. At that port we had a Private Tour scheduled with a local tour guide which we had to cancel. Was really look forward to that too. Then sailed directly to Greenland at 5pm after spending an overnight in Manhattan, NY. Nuuk was the first stop, where we took a Boat tour which was really nice, seeing icebergs and mountains. It was within walking distance from the ship where we docked. We did not go into the town, weather was kind of cool and you needed to be transported into town by busses. Those that went into town said there wasn't much there. Next stop was Qaqortoq which was a tender port. We had the Key so getting off the ship to the tender was easy, those without Key had quite a wait getting off. Did a Walking Tour there, that met right on shore where we got off. That was a cool town to walk around and meet all the locals. Last Greenland Port was Nanortalik, this was another tender port also. There we just walked around because there was not many tours offered. This town is really remote and very few people live there so there really wasn't much to see. I can't remember which port it was now but the RIB boat tours (Rigid Inflatable Boats) is the excursions to take take in Greenland. In hind sight we should have booked one of them, people were saying around the ship later that, that excursion was really good and those people really got some awesome shots of icebergs and such and even some of them got to touch an ice berg. Then we left Greenberg and headed back to Bayonne, our last stop was at St. Johns, New Foundland There we just walked around town, glad we didn't book any excursions there. Because little did we know we were both coming down with Covid so didn't feel the greatest. So being not far away from the ship was a good thing. Didn't know until about 2 days later after leaving there that we actually were confirmed with Covid. So the Last day(packing day) we were quarantined in our cabin.
  9. Might be kicking yourself because Anthem doesn't go to Geiranger, Can you do an August cruise like the one below. Day 1: Kiel, Germany Sat Aug 10 2024 | Depart 07:00 PM Day 2: Copenhagen, Denmark Sun Aug 11 2024 | 08:00 AM To 06:00 PM Day 3: day at sea Mon Aug 12 2024 | Day 4: Hellesylt, Norway Tue Aug 13 2024 | 09:00 AM To 09:45 AM Day 4: Geiranger, Norway Tue Aug 13 2024 | 12:00 PM To 09:00 PM Day 5: Alesund, Norway Wed Aug 14 2024 | 07:00 AM To 05:00 PM Day 6: Flaam, Norway Thu Aug 15 2024 | 07:00 AM To 06:00 PM Day 7: day at sea Fri Aug 16 2024 | Day 8: Kiel, Germany Sat Aug 17 2024 | Arrive 09:00 AM
  10. I think you got all you are going to get when the Rangers won the World Series.
  11. Not a single flying insect when we were their this past September, never had to use our nets at any of the Greenland ports.
  12. Or Maybe Land Vacations is the way to go for the OP?
  13. Yes, that usually happens. Probably see them painting at the next port you stop at if conditions are right.
  14. I assume you can't live there, so I guess you are renting a place somewhere. Hopefully your home owners insurance is paying for all of this.
  15. Go ask for your money back at guest relations or the tour desk. They should know what they are(n't) selling.
