gmros Posted April 15, 2012 Author #26 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Persian Garden continued...Samara Turkish Bath . EscargotI didn't see it on the menu today. I realize it was in the everyday menu before, but it's not this sailing. I'll report back if I see it in any of the changing menu.. Theatre entertainmentI'm sorry I missed the one for tonight. But I'll make sure to watch other nights and report back. It was a long day. Time for bed. I'll be back tomorrow with more photos of the ship. See ya!

EithneMay Posted April 15, 2012 #31 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I was on the Summit back in Feb. If the menu is the same, don't shy away from the spaghetti and meatballs in the MDR! It was our favorite meal! The meatballs were stuffed with some really good cheese. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
librarylady19 Posted April 15, 2012 #32 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Thanks especially for the PG pictures, I think those are the first I'd seen. Don't know why we never went there on our last Summit cruise:confused: As we are in AQ will definitely check it out this time! Appreciate all your efforts!!

rupertfrog Posted April 15, 2012 #36 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Thank you for doing a "Live" on the Summit. We are taking our first Celebrity cruise on the Summit on March 9th. Any information related to who will be there then would be nice to know and love the reviews/photos. We will have a Concierge Aft Cabin on Deck 9 ... so if any photos are available of those ... added bonus. I've heard of an Aft Bar .... can you check to see if there is one & photos ... What deck it is on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmros Posted April 15, 2012 Author #39 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Thank you everyone for your responses! I will try the spaghetti and meatballs next dinner, thank you EithneMay! Thank you Avid for posting the photo for rupertfrog. Rupertfrog, I only have this photo. But I'll try to take more and report back. It's hard to see, but the bar is there in the middle :D The view from the aft bar - Serenade of the Seas while we were docked in San Juan. I think that's the canopy of the cabins at the bottom of the photo, and parts of the some balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmros Posted April 15, 2012 Author #40 Share Posted April 15, 2012 APRIL 14 CONTINUED Photo of the pools at night Food! Baked Farm Goat Cheese Tart 2/5 - I found the balsamic vinegar too strong for the tart Crab Stuffed Mushroom Caps 4.5/5 - DH and I loved this, even our neighbor. I ate it even though I'm allergic to crab! No, it's not Escargot, though it looked it :( Cream of Wild Forest Mushroom Soup 3.5/5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmros Posted April 15, 2012 Author #41 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Aged Prim Rib of Beef (medium rare) 3.5/5 - I had better. It was a little chewy and needed more sauce. But I liked it anyway. "Momma's" Pork Chops 4/5 - DH and our neighbor loved it. Apple Pie a la Mode 3/5 Warm Banana-Blueberry Crepe 3/5 - the crepe itself was chewy. I'll try the crepes at Bistro on Five next Here's a glimpse of one of the things we did today (4/15), guess what it is... See you later, I need to get ready for formal night!

socratesxxx Posted April 16, 2012 #42 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Thanks for all the awesome pictures. Looks like I have to face the fact that I will be putting on a few pounds once I board Summit this coming Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karen of PA Posted April 16, 2012 #43 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Thank you so much for the awesome posts and photos. I especially enjoyed the food pictures. I have the most difficult time deciding what to order. I even check out the menus ahead of time so I know what I will be choosing. What are you doing in the latest photo? Is it some type of food tasting? Can you describe it? Thanks, Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodPat Posted April 16, 2012 #45 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Yes, that is the brunch. We try never to miss that as it really is a treat. Thanks for your review and pictures. We sail on the 21st and the 28th of April and this is really getting me in the mood. Keep up the good work. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debshomespun Posted April 16, 2012 #46 Share Posted April 16, 2012 The inside cabins on Summit are much larger than on Millennium. We did our first Celebrity cruise on the Millie in Feb, and had an inside. Here is a picture of it. The bed was in middle of the room, with a small chair stuffed in the corner. Not much room to move around at all, but was just fine for a 5 night cruise, and the price we paid, lol. We are sailing on the Eclipse in Jan/13, and have a balcony on deck 8. Much better than the insides. We sailed RC Serenade the end of Jan. this year just before we did the Millie, and we had an aft balcony. It was pure heaven! :D Thanks for taking the time to do a "LIVE" review. It's so great to see pictures of the ships and follow along with other cruisers while we are stuck on land! :eek: :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmros Posted April 16, 2012 Author #47 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Thank you everyone! I'm at the Hilton Barbados right now trying to keep up with work, CC, Facebook etc :D I wanna apologize in advance if I missed any of your questions/posts/requests. I'm realizing that it is not easy to post using my phone. Socrates, yes there's a lot of food! I told my husband "I gave up" with dieting as soon as we stepped foot on the ship :D Karen, yes that is the buffet brunch done. Don't miss it! Oh and don't eat breakfast if you can, there was a lot of food at the brunch. I'll post a lot of photos tonight of the brunch. Debshomespun, oh the Millie cabin has a different setup. Thank you for sharing! We're also booked on a balcony in November on the Summit (different itinerary) and the it cost us as much as the inside this trip! ... Posted using Tapatalk.

sarahc78 Posted April 16, 2012 #49 Share Posted April 16, 2012 LOVING your review. Your photos are just fantastic. If its possible, I know a lot of parents (myself included :D) would really appreciate some photos of the new Fun Factory and Teen Club if you have the time and oppurtunity to take some. Thanks!

orchestrapal Posted April 16, 2012 #50 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Great photos..we have just booked our first Celebrity cruise and have lots of questions some of which you have and will probably answer.
