happy v

We went to bed just after half ten last night. Then hubby's phone started beeping. Son was at the coast and could see the Aurora. I lay a while then got up to see if daughter wanted us to sit with granddaughter so she could go to beach. Offer was declined, back to bed. Phone started again. Son was back and the lights were better at home. Got up again. Wow. The sky was red to purple all over. Our three families were sending photos back and forth. These lasted much longer and were far more intense than on our Northern Lights cruise, and we had good sightings then. Good luck to everyone checking tonight

Definitely has not always been all inclusive. I stopped going when it changed and the prices went up.

I could have written this. It describes our reasons exactly

Out of interest I have just checked on my P&O and the prices haven't changed yet. So anyone who would buy a drinks package can do it today. We don't.

However the policy for ports is any alcohol is stored until you leave the ship

We always have a starter and soup. This is never a problem and we are freedom dinning. On Ventura the food and portion sizes were so good. sometimes we didn't have dessert

Last year on Britannia. I told the DJ if he looked around the room and most people had grey hair. It was safe to assume they didn't like rap. It worked for a couple of days inside. Out on deck he happily played to himself for a fortnight

Just to counteract no.7. We were on Ventura a month ago. We really felt cruising was now back to normal. Food, entertainment, staff etc. all great

Welcome home

So it is like tattooed eyebrows? Sounds very painful. I think I will pass😉

I would check with Port Adventure. I have also been on excursions which opened out of hours for us

What's a paternoster?

It's not very pretty. Is it?

I'm just having a cup of tea and thinking. "Isn't it nice to have nothing more pressing to do than design imaginary ships." 😉

Last year this became able to book once onboard. Several times were offered so I would not have thought it would be fully booked already
