LGW59 Posted October 21, 2020 #1 Share Posted October 21, 2020 If you had to name the one most thing about cruising, that you look forward to, what would it be? OK, there might be two, or 3 or 4... 1. Coffee and breakfast on my balcony, every single day, sun reflecting on the water 2. Late night glass of Pinot Grigio in an open air bar, the moon hovering over the sea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ken the cruiser Posted October 21, 2020 #4 Share Posted October 21, 2020 We love not having to cook, clean or do laundry for at least 3-5 weeks at a time. But we also love looking forward to what the next day will bring, whether it's going on an excursion at some cool port or finding things to do around the ship on sea days. And then there's hanging out on the balcony watching the waves go by and hoping to get a glimpse of some ocean life along the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare chemmo Posted October 21, 2020 #8 Share Posted October 21, 2020 We should be on Silhouette now...It was booked as a real rest and relaxation cruise, no intention of doing anything other than enjoy the ship. As an extra treat we had booked the PH as we celebrated our Ruby wedding this year. Just sitting on the balcony in the morning with a coffee or in the evening with a cognac sounds like heaven... So missing the restaurants. We would have dined in Tuscan first night and last night would have been Murano’s. We so love the atmosphere in the speciality restaurants on Celebrity S class ships. Each meal feels like an ‘event’ but never in a ‘stuffy’ way... Ah well, we have switched to next September, only 300+ days to go... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Germancruiser Posted October 21, 2020 #9 Share Posted October 21, 2020 My next booked voyage is on board Queen Mary2 also in September- useing my FCC. I hope in ( well almost) a years time things have a bit settled down and cruising is possible, albeit different from what we are used to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our last cruise was in an inside cabin on the Edge, and the one before that was a Royal Suite on Reflection, so we have done it all - but the no cooking and cleaning and relaxing on the balcony/Magic Carpet is the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChucktownSteve Posted October 21, 2020 #12 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I most look forward to the views we get looking aft with a morning Americano coffee just enjoying life.

Don’t move on...just read and enjoy the flow of what so many of us enjoy and are now missing. Even if you only find one item on this post of something special that you may enjoy on a future cruise then the reading will have been worthwhile. We are E+ now but still find ideas/experiences related that are new to us. May every cruise you embark offer something new to you be it 10th or 30th... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgirlejfan Posted October 22, 2020 #22 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Having coffee and watching our ship dock in each port in the morning with my bestie, or having drinks at the Martini bar with my bestie, her hubby and my hubby every evening. Heck, I'm so hard up to go, I'd even look forward to disembarkation and the dreaded sad last day of the cruise! Please let this go away! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
