I finally have some time off! 🙂 Hey, you could pop down here to collaborate with me! Together, we could create amazing posts😈😈 I have restocked the wine closet. No Caymus, alas, but it’s a pretty good collection😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only afford to drink Caymus on cruises when I have the PAL. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silkroad Posted May 20, 2019 Author #203 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Today, I turned in a comment card to Guest Relations, praising our excellent stateroom attendant, Dony. He's one of the two best attendants we've had, so we wanted to make sure we praised him & his work if every possible way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every one of Celebrities employees were nothing but EXCELLENT on the EDGE. I asked a representative that I had a conversation with. I said. I bet they were hand picked for the best of the best. I was assured, that was correct. I believe it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted May 20, 2019 #206 Share Posted May 20, 2019 4 hours ago, vtcruising said: hcat, a quick question off topic that someone was asking on my Edge menu thread: "Can items off from the regular MDR menu be ordered in Blu?" Thanks! We never tried..and no one offered. The kitchens are not nearby from what I gather and BLU has so many choices including some trad mdr favs...onion soup, shrimp cocktail, creme brulee We have only been able to do that on the M Class ships, where BLU was carved out of the mdr..so they are nearby. Even then not all will do it. I prefer the prime rib in mdr to the filet in BLU, so we started making early res in mdr for the first nights..only to learn sometimes BLU would have ordered it for us.. Now we are not going to be in BLU for awhile....but still hoping for good service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted May 20, 2019 #207 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Another Gaudi fan here..I agree there are hints and reminders here and there on EDGE. I think the trees & some "wirey " forms look like photos I have seen of a park in Singapore ( on a cruise catalogue, no less)....sr moment..can't place it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it would be more difficult. I will let her know. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silkroad Posted May 20, 2019 Author #211 Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) This was a relaxing sea day, with no big plans. I can see that we had cocktails in the Martini Bar, before meeting our friends for dinner at Cyprus, where we had another great meal. After dinner, we headed to the 9:30 show at the theater. Dominick Allen put on a fairly good show, but we thought it was a shame that he seemed only hit the right songs for the crowd during his encore.

Lastdance Posted May 20, 2019 #213 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I really love sea days, but there are just way too many people out and about. Maybe a nice potion would allow them to really sleep for most of the day...just thinking out loud... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed Kronos - he was so misunderstood.... he told me that people thought he was a bad guy when in fact he was the one to lift the spell. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the Edge have a new martini bar menu or is it the same as all the other Celebrity ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did partake of the Grey Goose Cosmo (yum), Elderflower Martini (very nice) and the Lemon-Basil-Ade Martini (delish). My one regret was to not try Mike Preisman's recommended Snowflake Martini. Next time, it will be first on my list at the Martini Bar. It's good to have goals and aspirations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always look at the menu because we like to try different ones. The lemon basilade sounds like it would be a favorite for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
