Rare Jack E Dawson Posted September 6, 2022 #51 Share Posted September 6, 2022 8 hours ago, rakkor said: It's my birthday on the 13th and although I'd have liked to spend it on board, my oppo at work wanted the end of September off and since he's been single handedly kept the office afloat while I've been off I thought I out to let him have it. Anyway, so rather than spending it on board we are staying on for a couple of days returning to the UK on the 15th Then let me suggest one stop as a part of your birthday celebration, La Champagneria Barcelona – Cava at La Xampanyeria Barcelona. This is our favorite place in Barcelona for tapas and cava. It is a fun happening place frequented by locals and in-the-know travelers from all over the world. It is located at Carrer de la Reina Cristina, 7, 08003 in the Barceloneta area of Barcelona. Order a whole bottle of pink Cava and all of your tapas selections at once. It is usually crowded but you can eat outside. Closed Sundays. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare carlmm Posted September 10, 2022 #55 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Could you adivse which terminal the Queen Elizabeth uses in Barcelona. For my upcoming cruise (19th of all days) it just says on the boarding pass "Barcelona cruise terminal" but there are obviously more than one.

Host Hattie Posted September 12, 2022 #59 Share Posted September 12, 2022 That looks a bit cheap and nasty. Enjoy your stay in Barcelona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rakkor Posted September 12, 2022 Author #60 Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) It does a bit, but all the info that you need is there - I'll scan it properly when I get home Edited September 12, 2022 by rakkor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techteach Posted September 12, 2022 #61 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Since I don’t have it in my hand I won’t judge, but I like the tri-fold because it will fit easily in my purse or a book, and I like the color coding. How’s the content @rakkor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Oldpeopleinlove Posted September 12, 2022 #62 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Re the post about QE’s condition being poor: We were on in early June, and everything was in good shape. We’ll be back on in early October, and I only hope that most of the painting will be done by then. The fumes triggered my asthma, but that was the ONLY downside we experienced. I can deal with it to be back on board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were painting bits of the Grills terrace Sunday, I assume it's a bit like painting the Forth Bridge, once finished it's time to start all over 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
