peter spain Posted January 25, 2016 #551 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm sad to see this. I had hoped after all our commentary early on that they would put some sort of storage in there and a larger counter surface area. Where will the soap be? Toothbrushes and toothpaste? The only shelving at all is over the toilet, and that's inappropriate for those items. I see a nice hook next to the sink where I can put my hanging toiletries bag I guess. Not sure where my husband's shaving kit and etc. will go. :confused: Maybe there's a medicine cabinet behind the mirror? I will be anxiously awaiting your assessment. Why so negative??? You have only see pictures. Must be hard for the people who are working so hard to give us all the photos and information. As far as I have seen everything looks wonderful. I am sure I will find a place to put my toothbrush:). Really looking forward to the new ship. Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 6 met Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 6 met Tapatalk Hi Peter Spain, Thank You, and I totally agree with your comments It's a huge effort to post the photos... and (IMO) there's no reason to be critical at this point. Besides, as much as I'm pleased the photos - seeing it in person may prove to be a different experience. I'm sailing on Journey in only 2 days, and will be sure to share my insights on the upcoming "Live From Journey" thread, which will begin tomorrow. Please stay tuned !

Andy Posted January 25, 2016 Author #553 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) It's great to see all the pictures of it "coming together" looking forward to seeing the finished article on Wednesday.Currently in our South Beach hotel and have been given an upgraded suite on the 15th floor have a balcony with a great view of the both the ships sailing in and docked. Just hoping we can get a few pictures of Journey's arrival, would be good to know an eta. Hi Riocca, Welcome to Miami ! I'm hearing that boarding won't begin before 2 pm, so please plan accordingly. Stay a bit longer, and relax at the hotel. Also, the Cruise Critic Meet and Mingle is now scheduled for 10 am on Day 2 (Thursday January 28th). Location is TBA, so please check with Guest Relations when you board the ship. Cruise Critic has graciously provided some giveaways for the Meet and Mingle, so we'll be having a raffle - no charge for tickets. Look forward to meeting you there ! Only 2 days to go. Can't wait !!! Edited January 25, 2016 by Host Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
critterchick Posted January 25, 2016 #554 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Andy, thanks again for all the hard work you've done. I hope you don't feel compelled to take and post too many photos, since the Internet is likely to be expensive and we don't want you to go through the added cost. Bon Voyage!:) I'm sad to see this.

I wouldn't say that I'm sad to see the new bathroom layout, but I do think that they elevated form over function. I do wonder if they might eventually consider at least putting a rim or bar across the shelving to keep items from falling in rough seas. I'm still waiting to see the carpet.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 80 degrees last week on our Princess cruise so feeling the chill. Looking forward to meeting you later in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsure where I criticized Host Andy and his hard work? Which we're all obviously very grateful for? I certainly didn't mean to. I was merely echoing the concern many felt when the first drawings of the CC suite bathrooms came out. We were all hoping that there would be some counter space and some place to store our toiletries, and the talk then was that it was just artist renderings, etc., but it seems it's just the same. Just an observation, that's all. Obviously the ship is stunning, and I'm anxious to see Quest, as we'll be on her a couple of weeks after her dry dock in a Club Continent Suite. I promise to only be effusive in my praise from now on. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyTopazTX Posted January 25, 2016 #557 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks for all the great pictures that were posted the last two weeks. We are so looking forward to sailing on the Azamara Journey the upcoming week and meeting everyone. This will be our first cruise on the Azamara and know it will be a wonderful journey. See ya’ll soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Familygoboston Posted January 25, 2016 #558 Share Posted January 25, 2016 This looks like the thing the bad guy put James Bond in in the last Bond movie! :eek: LOL, thank you Andy for posting all these wonderful pictures and details! We are lucky that the Azamara folks are open to posting "making of the sausage" photos. A lot of brands might have just waited till everything was done! I looking forward to following your review later this week. While I finish my packing ;) Anyone for a Pedicure ? : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
