Just exactly what I thought ,but you, never know on cruise critic. Someone else posted that there was definitely diet Dr Pepper on board their ship. ( Out of Galveston earlier this year)Maybe there was ?? it doesn’t seem likely.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MissiCruzs Posted May 5 Author #103 Share Posted May 5 We had the most fabulous day!!! We went on a beaches tour with Lawrence of Antigua. There were 12 of us. First stop was Jolly Beach where we spent 2 hours. Next stop was OJs beach bar and restaurant... where we had cheeseburgers and fries and spent an hour on the beach. Next stop was Ffryes beach for an hour and a half. We totally dictated the time at each stop and Lawrence accommodated us. Cost was $50pp. Lunch was on your own expense. It was just the loveliest day. We made new friends and connected with old ones. Lawrence is the nicest man and we have toured with him several times and will continue to do so. Life is good! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if they are having issue with the engines or the thrusters? Have they mentioned anything? Hopefully it doesn’t impact your cruise or others.

It was simply precautionary to guide the ship into port carefully with some wind etc. No issues with the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MissiCruzs Posted May 8 Author #117 Share Posted May 8 Italian night in the Botticelli dining room with Rasvan cooking. Last cruise I had it as an appetizer. This cruise I had it as my main course it was so good. This also is the only time they had sun dried tomato rolls in the dining room. Yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MissiCruzs Posted May 8 Author #118 Share Posted May 8 On St. Kitts we went to Carambola Beach club. This is the nicest place to spend a day. The Atlas World Voyager was anchored off the coast with it's 180 passengers and tendering over to the pier at our beach. Prices subject to change of course but we paid $30 for 2 loungers and an umbrella of good quality. There's a $5pp entrance fee which is waived if you get the chairs. They have a nice restaurant on sight with food and drink service to your chair. Taxi is $7pp each way if you have 4 or more and they will return for you at a stated time or there are taxis waiting. Nice restrooms and multiple outdoor showers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MissiCruzs Posted May 8 Author #121 Share Posted May 8 Yesterday was our last port day. We'd never been to Tortola and chose to take a taxi to Cane Garden Bay. Water was beautiful. Ride there was scary. We had watched Blogger videos and maybe they were dated but they showed where to walk to the taxis and it was $8pp each way. Not anymore. It's $12pp and you pay round trip upfront and get a blue band. When you leave the taxis are all there and you are directed to the correct one. The problem was it was a zoo. 20 taxis parked every which way. You had to wait until one or two backed up and then deal with one trying to get in on very narrow streets. We finally made it out... had another harrowing drive but arrived safely. If we go back I will go out on a boat instead! All onboard was 3:30... which is when I went up to Skywalkers. Rain was driving sideways and there was zero visibility. We were a little late leaving because we had to wait for it to clear up but we have 2 sea days now on the way home. Dinner last night was the Beef Wellington in Botticelli followed by the Captains Circle party at 7. I fell into bed at 8. 40 days at sea and the last 20 were port intensive Beach stops for us. I'm ready to go home and rest... wash clothes and repack. Going back out on the Enchanted on May 18-25. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goingsailing Posted May 8 #122 Share Posted May 8 Hello, I have a question you might be able to answer since you are currently on the Emerald. I will be on her in a short time with 2 grandsons. We were wondering if the Emerald has an arcade room? I thought I saw one on a deck plan somewhere but now I can't find it. Can you help us out?

It is on Deck 6 on the left side of the ship right before you enter the Casino. The arcade is called Churchill's Arcade.

sailing bears Posted May 8 #125 Share Posted May 8 Can someone tell me whether the Premium Balcony Cabins (B1, B2 and B4) on Emerald have a sofa? Are the Premium Balcony cabins larger than the regular balcony cabins (like BA and BB) or do they just have a larger balcony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
