Many thanks for your post and pictures. Enjoyed it.

We’re going soon on the Eclipse.

If you could post current daily activities schedules it’ll be great info. Have you tried the aqua spa cafe in the solarium? Any other information on theme parties or events would be appreciated.

Thanks 🙏 again and safe travels.

Namaste.

Sorry it took me so long to respond to you cementhands. I cannot post activity schedules as that does not work with my blog format. I am not doing a “live from” comentary although I am trying my best to post as regularly as possible. That said, there are a lot of activities on the ship. This cruise director, Eddie, is really good and keeps things hopping. We have not been to the Aqua Spa cafe and cannot comment on it. I am sure you will enjoy your time on board.

Sounds like you are having a great trip. We will be on same trip Feb 18. We love the southern Caribbean so much we generally go on the 14 night trip each year. Our itinerary takes us into St Maarten again as they seem ready to accept tourism. Be interesting to see how the reconstruction is going. All reports say that Orient beach is gone except for sand and rocks. Too bad as we had a great beach bar, KaKao, we loved to visit each year. How was you overnight in Curacao. Do anything special at night?

Evening Redglass.

 

Enjoy your cruise. The islands we visited all appeared to be in good shape although a conversation with a shop keeper in St. Thomas stated there is a lot of reconstruction work yet to be accomplished. On our evening in Curacao we strolled over to the Renaissance Hotel to enjoy the view and take a couple of evening photos. We enjoyed Curacao and thought if was a good port for an overnight. I believe some passengers went to some of the local nightclubs but that is just based on scuttlebutt.

The glass show will still be on the Eclipse through the end of February.

Not sure after that.

 

 

From talking with the Eclipse glass blowers last week, apparently Celebrity is dropping the partnership with the Corning Museum of Glass, and teaming up with a different, undisclosed, glass company. The staged transition to the new company will be completed on all ships by June 2018. It appears that the location and all existing equipment will remain in place, so some form of glass blowing will likely continue for the foreseeable future.
