Rare graphicguy Posted October 4, 2021 Author #101 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Just a little compare and contrast, was on Celebrity Edge a couple of months ago….beautiful ship. Their buffet was totally served by wait staff….no self serve. NCL…..business as usual…although NCL requires “washy-washy” at the Garden Cafe entrance, where Celebrity does not! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She politely? Firmly? Emphatically, made me promise not to post any more pics of her on CC, given she didn’t get a chance to color her hair and get it styled before we left. As I told her, “you’re blonde…no one can tell where you’re grey hairs are unless I tell them.” Blackmail is a good tool. Anyway, I will abide by her wishes given her employment status. @graphicguy Please tell your girlfriend that she's beautiful and we would need some CIA-level magnifying equipment to see her roots or anything but perfection but, as a woman, I totally understand. Enjoy your time together and have a fabulous cruise! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
left the dog at home Posted October 4, 2021 #103 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I think I read somewhere that the chandelier is supposed to represent efforts to keep our oceans clean. I’ll have to investigate. Thank you to all who are posting. We are looking forward to our ‘22 Encore cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least, that’s what we’re booked to see later this week. Well both should be playing. On the 9/4 I was on, both were canceled all week which wasn’t great. The fact Kinky Boots has now had multiple weeks worth of shows canceled - presumably due to COVID - is really not good at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Choir of Man was advertised on my booking. Never saw anything related to “Kinky Boots” on my cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare graphicguy Posted October 5, 2021 Author #110 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Docked in Icy Straight Point. Storms came through a couple of weeks ago and blew away zip lines.

The main Broadway type show on the Encore is Kinky Boots. It started up about a month ago but was down for a week or two due to covid protocols. This week it is down again, most likely due to covid protocols. Choir of Man is the other show on the Encore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinky Boots went on (it was very good) but Choir of Man was cancelled later in the week. They mentioned something about personnel issues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have heard. nOthing but great things about it! I know NCL switches out shows every few years. With the shutdown, I’m sure things became discombobulated. Happy Choir of Man was assigned to our sailing! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
