Yes i would like to know about the beds..Are they comfy? Soft? Hard? Ill be in a inside room this time next month? Where are you headed today?? Have a very safe cruise !

[AerynSun_JohnCrighton]

I wish I was with you!!!!!!

[Clay Clayton]

Would love to see some pictures of the refubished public areas and the suites!

Do they have comfy lounge chairs on the promonode deck? How is the entertainment in the theater? Was embarkment at port canaveral as bad as everyone says compared to lets say Miami?

[lambs2]

Have you tried the new Moderno Churrascaria specialty restaurant or talked to anyone who has eaten there? Curious about how folks are enjoying it.

[dougbass]

the beds on our balcony are soft, they are called bliss. havent tried the moderno yet but we are going to, it is always crowded so it must be good, le bistro was very good, and the steak house was good, but not worth 25 bucks per person. the food on the no charge resturants is just so- so. the entertainment on the ship is fair. the juggler is good and funny but he seems to drop alot... the comedian was pretty funny, but he seems to refer back to old jokes too often. the sun production cast were fair, but not as good as any other cruises we have been on. the singer elvy rose was very talented and energetic if you like swing or blues. we just sailed from st thomas and st marrten and nassau, we love st martten! orient beach was nice but we forgot that clothes are optional! this week we are going to cozumel, key west, guatemala, belize. the back to back cruises is interesting but we are expecting the same shows and everything this week. feel free to ask more ? we sail at 4 pm! i will try to put up some pics

embark at port canaveral was so easy a caveman could do it! it was so much better than charleston sc ! just get there early, we arrvied at 1100 am and no lines at all and got on the ship at 1130

the juggler is good and funny but he seems to drop alot...

 

That's part of his act... I think he gets paid by the hour. :D

[AerynSun_JohnCrighton]

What about the classes... French wine and cheese,Balancing food and wine, South American Wine Tasting, Sangria and Tapas, Margarita... have you done any of them?

 

If so, which did you like, and think was worth the money?

Did you notice any drink specials being offered on your first half of your cruise? I'm looking for 2 for 1 glasses of wine or mixed drinks, like I had on Costa last year. If so, I won't carry much wine on board.

[dougbass]

they have margarita and martinis 2 for1 almost everyday in certain bars, tapas is a nice quiet place with great nachos! we didnt try any of the martini tastings or wine. they had liquior tastings on the embark day. i never saw any wine specials except the buy 6 bottles and get 20% off.

[jnv]

is Tapas one of the upcharge restaurants? which lounge has the two for one margaritas? would you be so kind as to check menus and see if any of the specialty restaurants serve crab legs? thank you very much and enjoy your cruise!

Me too, please!

[Sauer-kraut]

Las Ramblas is the tapas bar, in the afternoons they offer FREE tapas, we had some diablo shirmp once and they were firey!

 

Lunch is served up there as well, sort of like a deli/panni place with soup, its nice to go up there get the food and then eat outside, there are a few tables on that level or just take the outside staircase down to the Great Outdoors.

[karen327]

Do they have the made to order pizzas an pastas still? How about crepes?

[NMLady]

i am currently onboard so anyone have any questions?

 

No questions. But if you get a chance, tell the dealers in the casino that Joseph and Mary say hello. We were on the Sun from 9/17-10/23 and made quite a few friends among the crew, especially the casino dealers. :D

 

If you run into Alejandro on the cruise director's staff, or Rene and Cherry, cabin stewards, give them regards from Mr Joseph and Ms Mary.

 

If Leon (Leonard?) is still playing piano in Windjammer, be sure you spend some time listening to him. He's a real delight.

 

Have some waffle in Moderno for me (it was Pacific Heights when we were aboard), and have a drink in the Sports Bar for us.

 

We miss the Sun and wish we could be cruising on her again.

 

Have fun and enjoy your cruise.

[Clay Clayton]

Thanks for the pictures....sad that they didn't refurbish the staterooms while it was in drydock. Looks exactly the same as it did in 2005 and then again twice last year...guess it will be the same next October too.

We are doing the Ta on the Sun in April, it will be the 1st cruise with NCL for my partner & I. We are both tall ( 6'4) & a bit over 200 lbs. :) Is the shower in the balcony rooms small? On HAL, I think I had about 2" of headroom, luckly, we had a shower / tub combo as well as the free standing shower.

Any info you can pass on ( it's your nickel for the internet), I'm sure all of us would appreciate it.

thanks, ron

Hey, I'm from Charleston and I can guarantee ANY port is better, lol! We are going on the Sun in April, 2012. What is there to do during the day? I am pretty ADD so I find it very hard to just sit in a lounge chair...When you get back can you scan your Dailies?

[umpy10]

Will be going on the Sun in Oct. ( 1st timer to cruising ) any pics of the menus (room service) Le Bistro , Etc. would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Does anyone know anything about the mini suites on the port side?
