excitedofharpenden Posted May 28, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 28, 2016 A couple of days into our cruise with sunny skies and calm seas. I have found use of the phrase "it doesn't get much better" a frequent sum up of life onboard. Crew as usual can't do enough for you. We ate at the Patio last night and it was excellent. On my last cruise I ate there twice and it was very good. I'd encourage anyone to try it. A nice half way house between the buffet and main dining room with views! It does look like the self service laundry will be fixed in the next couple of days. I'll post when it's done. I'll be on the ship for six weeks which is the longest time I've been away, but I have a feeling I still won't want to get off at the end.

Phil Thanks Phil I loved the patio even on a cooler transatlantic so can't wait to try it again in warmer climes. Just remember you have to get off so you can experience that lovely buzz when you first come back on ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tv24 Posted May 28, 2016 #10 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Bon Voyage a toi, Phil! Six weeks sounds delicious! Will you be in the Med the entire time? And what type of stateroom did you book? Since AZ is your favorite holiday, I know you will have a terrific time. We are still in the midst of our big Europe adventure, right now having rich experiences in Berlin. Give Heiki a big kiss for us when you run into her, and I know you will! Enjoy every moment! Tom and Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy every moment!Tom and Ron Tom, yes all in the Med. Santorini four times, but I don't care! Just arrived there this morning. First cruise I'm in a balcony, second and third an OV on deck 4 and a Club World Owner's Suite for the last one. I'm in 7014 right now and really like the location. I will indeed give Heike a big kiss from you both! Continue to enjoy your big European adventure.:cool: Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excitedofharpenden Posted May 29, 2016 Author #14 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Azamazing Evening in Chania was excellent last night. Piano recital in the open air followed by some fireworks arranged by the town. I took a photo of the tapas yesterday evening. I didn't try any, but it looked delicious.

Send some comments on the Owner's Suite after you have stayed there...I will pass them on to Robert and Robyn, with whom we are corresponding. They are very interested in how things evolve in the suites. Oh, and have a terrific time; I know you will! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
