The Italian Kiss ****

[RICHARD@SEA]

I have been looking forward to the start of Explora Cruises.... I am old enough  & fortunate enough to have experienced the Italian, Home & Sitmar Lines of the 1960's-1980's.

 

I like the MSC product - in a balcony cabin on longer cruises....the Italian flavor is quite evident in many areas & the international presencce of crew & passengers usually make for a more fun cruise.

 

After watching the latest videos of Explora ! I see the influence of Italian design, a touch of contemporary glamour & a ship that is a very nice size - I just hope the cuisine & officers/ crew are equally delcious - ITALIAN STYLE!!!!

I hope so too.

Sounds like our earlier Silversea Cruises.

After that first cruise I wanted to learn Italian I even switched my coffee to Barista Italian dark roast.☕️

La Terazza was amazing back then.

I can't wait to hear all about your cruise....Italian Style.

Old enough to remember Italian Line transats - agreed - hope there is some old school Italian Style.
