s0479 Posted October 1, 2018 Author #52 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Pre dinner martinis and then first time we went to the dining room - it was a very good dinner though the dessert wasn’t the best. Once again we were exhausted and didn’t make it very late!

Viktoria Posted October 1, 2018 #53 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Did you do only the city tour. Celebrity is doing a panoramic Adriatic tour lasting 6 hours visiting a few different cities for meals. Sounds good but might be a little long. Dubrovnik is supossed to be a quaint city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h20cruzer Posted October 2, 2018 #55 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Most deserts in the dining room or so so I found that if I want to desert I going to have a dessert at Café Al Bacio. Your pictures are just beautiful. Norma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s0479 Posted October 2, 2018 Author #57 Share Posted October 2, 2018 The next day came early again! We were in Kotor - the sail in was definitely worth watching. Another early day - so rooms service again, definitely not my favorite food on ship but gets the job done. This was a tender port but we got off around 7:30 and it was extremely easy, no waiting at all. Celebrity was the farthest ship out so about a 20 minute tender ride. It was a bit cool this morning, especially after our ride to the top of the mountain. Today was an all day tour of Montenegro. We started with a drive to the top of the mountain for a panoramic views. There were a few sprinkles at the top but beautiful view. Then off to a smokehouse for fresh smoked prosciutto. It was good though I prefer Italian prosciutto and Spanish jamón. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0479 Posted October 2, 2018 Author #58 Share Posted October 2, 2018 From smokehouse we went to a smaller town in interior Montenegro and walked around a bit. Then more driving to a river/lake where we took a nice peaceful boat ride for around an hour. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0479 Posted October 2, 2018 Author #59 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Then onto a wonderful lunch. It was all really good but I don’t like looking my food in the eye so they filet it for me! Smoked carp, fish soup and trout. Then off back to Kotor to catch a quick tour of old town. The town wall was crazy steep!

s0479 Posted October 2, 2018 Author #61 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Once back on the boat we got some mint tea and just sat on our balcony watching the sail out - very beautiful Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0479 Posted October 2, 2018 Author #62 Share Posted October 2, 2018 We were exhausted so decided not to go to Qsine (and not horribly hungry). So my daughter and I went to the restaurant- my mom was exhausted so stayed in. This is a very busy/port intensive trip and we are looking forward to the sea day tomorrow. Dinner was very good!

s0479 Posted October 2, 2018 Author #63 Share Posted October 2, 2018 My morning started of bright and early around 5. Just can’t sleep darn it! I went to the gym but it doesn’t open til 6 - why?? Think it should be 24x7. So walked the track on 11 for a bit over an hour. I was the only one out there for almost the whole time. It was quite windy but not to cold and peaceful. Sitting in the buffet now with some tea waiting to go back to my room as I don’t want to wake anyone up :) Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzers j&n Posted October 2, 2018 #67 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Thanks for sharing your trip, I’ve been enjoying reading along and all the great pix. Two quick questions: 1) I noticed you did several food tours, was there a particular favorite? and 2) when you were docked at Zadar, did you take the ship sponsored excursion to Plitvce Lakes or use an independent company? I’d love to do the same when we’re there next summer but am concerned about the trip being too rushed/crowded and making it back to ship in time given the distance if we went independently, so any insights you can share would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance and enjoy the rest of your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance and enjoy the rest of your cruise! Food tours - we aren’t done with them yet but so far the favorite by far was the one in Dubrovnik- having a true local took it over the top. He even took us by his home in the old town. And he was a very good guide along with good food. Lakes - we did a private tour and they were very good with watching the time and changing it up a bit to make sure we were back on time.
