Cindy G Posted May 31, 2004 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2004 I have a collection of Celebrity glasses (the drink of the day glasses with three drink recipes on the back). I have five different ones....am I missing any? I have: King Richard.........Brassolaeliocattleya Formosana............Pleione Oriental Princess....Laeliocattleya Rothschildiana.......Vanda Hennessy.............Phalaenopsis It seems odd to me that there would be an odd number of glasses. Glasses usually come in sets of six or eight. I have only been on the Zenith and Horizon...do other ships have different ones? How does it work? Will I "need" to go on another cruise to complete my collection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dprice70 Posted May 31, 2004 #2 Share Posted May 31, 2004 Cindy, The Celebrity glasses are a set of 7. You are missing Cattleya/Warscewiczii and Phalaenopsis/Violacea.. I picked up the boxed set on Mercury at the Cova Cafe. It worked out to be about the same price and I did not have to take a dirty glass back to the room. Sounds like a great excuse to go on another cruise. Debra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cindy G Posted May 31, 2004 Author #5 Share Posted May 31, 2004 Rusty...you are baaddd! Debra...thanks for the information. How did you ever think to look for a boxed set? I didn't even think about it until I got home and noticed the different ones. Then I saw that I had five...I wonder why seven? Yes, another cruise is in the making. I just have to complete the set.

pbk917 Posted May 31, 2004 #6 Share Posted May 31, 2004 If you go to e-bay & do a search for Celebrity Cruises, you will usually find these types of glasses up for bid (at reasonable prices). Perhaps you will find the one's you are looking for. Good luck. Song of Norway 4/88 Horizon 4/01 Millennium 4/03 Century 7/04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nealberk Posted June 1, 2004 #8 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Forget the glasses, do you have all the drink recipes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mango14217 Posted June 1, 2004 #9 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Drink recipes are definately more important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbk917 Posted June 1, 2004 #10 Share Posted June 1, 2004 The recipe's for the drinks are on the other side of the glasses. Very functional. Song of Norway 4/88 Horizon 4/01 Millennium 4/03 Century 7/04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nealberk Posted June 1, 2004 #11 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Yes, but are there different recipes on the different glasses? If the rescipes are duplicated and you already have all of them, why bother with the extra glasses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess-of-Quite-alot Posted June 1, 2004 #12 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Cause they are pretty, Neal. It's a girl thing. (Although it was my Brad's idea to collect them as well!)

Cindy G Posted June 1, 2004 Author #14 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Nealberk, I like the way that you think! Perhaps I'll try it. Now that I am missing two them, does anyone want to trade? I have extras of some. And speaking of e-bay, did anyone see that someone had their Celebrity card listed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dprice70 Posted June 2, 2004 #15 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Cindy, I read about the glass set on the daily newspaper. Since I was not a fan of all the daily drinks on our 10 nightcruise I took the easy way and bought the set. That way I could enjoy the mango daquiries and martinis! I am trying to convince DH that we need a mug from each Celebrity ship, but he wants to try other cruise lines. Debra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denham33 Posted June 2, 2004 #17 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Why 7? Each day has a "drink of the day" special, so a glass for each, I would assume. I didn't do so well, I guess; I only have 1.

Cindy G Posted June 2, 2004 Author #18 Share Posted June 2, 2004 There is a set of six posted on e-bay just today. As luck would have it, one of them is one that I "need." But I already have duplicates of some. What's a girl to do? Decisions, decisions. Denham33, what about 10, 11 or 14 night cruises? I would like to know the reason behind 7, it seems like an odd number to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, you might want to just pick them up yourself on the ship during your next cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dprice70 Posted June 2, 2004 #20 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Cindy, I am not sure but would guess there are 7 glasses since the average cruise is 7 days. Bid on the set, can't hurt to have extras. Or use them as vases. Debra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
