IECalCruiser Posted June 6, 2014 #353 Share Posted June 6, 2014 We did this TA and Baltic cruise last May on the Emerald. Your review has brought back so many memories, Thanks for all the time you put into it. The Baltics are amazing.We did the Baltics on the Emerald last year and we also relived that cruise. It is unfortunate that the Royal can't cruise up the Stockholm Archipelago :(. The five hours in and out offered such fantastic views. We spend much of that time on the balcony enjoying the sights and having an adult beverage or two :) DW's Swedish grandparents lived on a lake in Minnesota and the houses there had boat houses down by the water just like in the Archipelago. The two areas looked so similar. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GweninTX Posted June 7, 2014 Author #354 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Absolutely loved your thread! We were on these cruises with you and it was great to re-live it, day-to-day. Very thorough and accurate reporting. One tiny correction (not because I'm a nit-picker but because you value accuracy): The party band, Spectrum, is from the North of England. The lead singer Jen has a very thick accent, but it's not Russian. We enjoyed them tremendously and spoke to them out on deck on several occasions. She has a nice alto voice and doesn't do the screeching diva routine. But next to food, musical entertainment is probably the most subjective thing on a cruise ship and I could understand that they're not everyone's cuppa tea.:D Looking forward to your future reports! Thanks! And you know that band grew on us more and more after 26 days. The female lead singer had such enthusiasm and she really tried to keep everyone on the dance floor!

Do you know/remember if they had a Russian folk dancers show on the boat on the first night in SPB? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
