And we are off!

I will double check in the herald the number of nights you need a jacket. I know it was less than we thought it would be.

 

I think it was 5 or 6 nights of the 10 night cruise... I know first and last were Resort Casual.

Looking forward to your posts FKGirl!!

The usual pattern is:

First and Last nights - Resort Casual (no jackets)

One Formal Optional per 7 days (so for 10 nights just the one penguin parade)

All the rest - Smart Casual.

 

So, gentlemen (and other types of men) will be required to wear a jacket on 8 of the 10 nights if dining in the restaurants. One can wear anything one wishes if dining in private on one's balcony.

 

Of course if you are dining in a public area al fresco of a warm and sultry evening it will be perfectly acceptable to take your jacket off and hang it on the back of your chair. I understand this sort of thing is also tolerated in the MDR, though I personally consider it rather poor show and a clear sign of a bohemian and undisciplined upbringing.

The first installment of the blog is here... more coming soon (and VIDEOS, too!)

but to answer your question, 1 formal, 4 Elegant Casual (jacket required) and 5 Resort casual (no jacket required). FKGuy would have left at least one jacket at home if we had known there were so many Resort Casual evenings!

Many thanks for answering my question.

 

The 1st instalment is very interesting cannot wait for more.

 

Thanks again:D:D:D

I've enjoyed reading your blog so far. I like your writing style and did actually 'laugh out loud' reading the Caviar in the Surf blog entry.:D

Looking forward to reading more instalments soon.

Now that we are fully back to normal, I have to plan another cruise.

Florida Keys Girl: Thanks for the blogs, especially the menus. I now fully see why so many Critics rave about the food on Seabourn and am comfy that I will be well-nourished. Thanks for taking the time to document all of this.

Thanks for the blogging. Only five more days! Thanks for the menus even though it creates so many dilemnas! We discovered patio grill for dinner when in Europe. Unfortunately it was so cold they often cancelled.

FKGirl, My thanks also for the blog. I have gone through the Menus 3 times now and can not wait for next week to come.

[FKGirl]

Glad you all enjoyed! The food really was quite good. Not too many concerns about closing the patio due to chilly temps!

 

I know a bunch of you are on Nov 27... say hi to my parents (Paula & Alan, from Miami) :)

 

...and have a glass (or three) of champagne for me!

[mick70]

I will sure say hi.
