Jim_Iian, thoroughly enjoying reading your live from as usual, though I've only gotten as far as page 22. Since I've not sailed on any of the Edge ships but am due to board Beyond on June 26 out of Civitavecchia to Greece and Turkey, please do let us know what you do and don't like about Apex. I'm on it with friends, one of which is celebrating a birthday, so couldn't say 'no'. I'm not a fan of ships any bigger than 2000 pax, so looking for your take on these huge floating cities! Luckily I was able to secure one of the aft veranda s/r with a true balcony and room for my lounge.
Also, if you could, let me know where Iain goes for his smokes!
Many Thanks, and now back to reading your travelogue.
Donna
