It helps me keep up. Except when people pose questions directed to someone not on this cruise. It confuses issues. If that works for you great! If it doesn't work for the OP that's not so great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

les37b Posted December 10, 2021 #78 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) zqtchas (and anyone else on this voyage), if possible could you comment on the tours you've been on (and doing) and if they are worthwhile. Also are you bubble tours only? I note from the email received a few days ago, which list countries that are SS bubble only and surprised that every country was listed as fine to DIY and not need to book through SS. Under normal circumstances I think I'd be pleased with this as I definitely prefer to do my own thing, but I'm not convinced that in the current climate its wise for all to do this. (It only takes one guest to mix with a positive case and it all comes crashing down like a deck of cards.

zqtchas Posted December 11, 2021 Author #79 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Today 51 people left. 204 on board. Service is supposed to be 2 to 1 but it didn’t seem that way in the Atlantide tonight. The special tonight there was Wiener schnitzel and it was the best I’ve had in ages. It was served in a straight forward fashion, without all the mix-mash vegetables . The creamed peas and carrots, the Geman potato salad were also well prepared IMHO. We went on the monkey tour. It took 15” on the tender, an hour on the mini bus, 15” fast time in the boat to spend an hour put-putting around some islands inside the canal zone to see 3 different kinds on monkeys, some more iguanas and a few assorted birds. No Tucans, you have to be early or late for them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zqtchas Posted December 11, 2021 Author #82 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Desserts: Last night the rum cake was very good. I’m not a fruit and berry dessert person and this cruise has has not disappointed. There have been many delightful chocolate treats. Although I haven’t seen nut or coconut involved. But then I can’t be everywhere. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zqtchas Posted December 11, 2021 Author #84 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) The Silver Note: My unprofessional opinion based on my very bad hearing after only one occasion is; they sound like they are singing karaoke.

zqtchas Posted December 13, 2021 Author #92 Share Posted December 13, 2021 (edited) Big wine shipment expected in Quayaquil. Plenty of Tiki. Have never had to use iguide so far. FYI , it does use a lot of juice. Had another water tour today. Saw lots of dolphins and a mother humpback whale with baby. Tough getting quality pictures.

Only one, the Alantide because: 1- Due to a food allergy it is easier to have one waiter who knows your wants and needs. 2- We cruise to not have to cook our own food. We don’t need lessons to cook. 3- The SALT menu sounds like the menu from ethnic restaurants back home, have plenty. 4- We are not adventurous eaters. From past experiences we feel that the La Dame is not worth the extra because we don’t eat as much as we used to and are quite happy with the above.

les37b Posted December 15, 2021 #99 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Just had a delivery. I knew the Silver Boxes were a thing of the past, but not heard anyone mention this little surprise that turned up this morning. A rather nice notebook! Is this the new "Silver Box" Did you guys get this too? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
