nps001 Posted April 29, 2012 Author #7 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I hadn't checked this board thread for quite some time. Welcome to everyone. We were on Silhouette last year and loved the ship. We look forward to meeting you on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally/Nicholas Posted May 1, 2012 #8 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hi guys, My partner Bill and I booked in August but have not checked this site since our last cruise in January. We love the ports because we have not been to several of them before, which is unusual. We would love to meet everyone the first night in the Martini bar which is usually where we have cocktails before dinner. In January they posted the Friends of Dorothy as meeting in the Martini bar, so it seems like a perfect fit. Is anyone staying in Venice in advance of the cruise? Looking forward to meeting everyone!

cruiseone2003 Posted May 2, 2012 #9 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Hello everyone! I've been doing some research on the ports and wanted to say hello to everyone. My partner and I booked onto this sailing last week, we are both fans of the Solstice class of ship and can't wait to experience "Modern Luxury" for a second time. Only 29 days to go!

cruiseone2003 Posted May 8, 2012 #17 Share Posted May 8, 2012 How 'bout a Zumbatini? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally/Nicholas Posted May 11, 2012 #18 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Okay now we are starting to get some life into this post! What is zumbaing? We are starting to get excited! Tomorrow to are out to buy some fun new clothes for the trip! Any reason to buy more clothes is worth it! We are spending a couple of nights in Venice before sailing. Hope to see everyone the first night at sea in the Martinia bar downing a couple of drinks before dinner! Is any one else on the unstructured dinning? Going when you want to? Looking forward to meeting everyone! Christopher and Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseone2003 Posted May 12, 2012 #19 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Hi Christopher and Bill, I think Zumbaing is where you drink a lot of martinis and then do the Zumba Dance, I could be wrong however? (lol) We are arriving in Venice the day of, we've been before and since we overnight in Venice we figured just use the ship as a hotel. If you have not seen Venice it's a beautiful city, you are in for a treat. We have the anytime dining, just works out easier although traditional dining can be fun too with the right dining mates. The Martini bar is beautiful with lots of areas to meet up for a pre dinner cocktail. Here's to a cruise to remember! David and Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wally/Nicholas Posted May 15, 2012 #22 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Hi David and Terry, Thanks for the Zumba info! I love martini's, but I don't think Bill will let me dance after I have had a couple. We have been to Venice several times before, but wanted to take a few days to visit some of our favorite places again and to get use to the time change. We are staying at a resort on an island off of Venice that use to be a 15th century monastary. We are doing the anytime dining as well, since we like the idea of choosing who we are dining with. This is our 20th cruise and have had great tables until the last cruise in January where the people did not like anyone or anything. Less than two weeks to go! Looking forward to meeting everyone over martinis! Christopher and Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to meeting everyone over martinis! Christopher and Bill Hi Christopher and Bill, I hear you about bad dining mates, we had that happen once when half our table was gay/gay friendly and the other half was well, lets just say, they weren't. After a brief chat with our Maitre'd he moved us to another table that was much nicer and even comped us a bottle of champagne for our troubles! This will be Terry and my second Celebrity Solstice class ship, we think they got it right with this class of ships and are looking forward to another adventure. We've been to Slovenia before, to Lake Bled actually but this time are looking at taking the ships bus to Ljubljana for the day. We've been to both ports in Croatia, Dubrovnik is a must see, Split not so much (In our opinion). Looking forward to Kotor, Montenegro, Corfu and Valletta more firsts for us and returning to Messina will be nice, maybe this time we'll make it up to Taormina. Last time we tried to go up on the train, the train cancelled and we missed it. Turned out taxis are not that expensive if you share the ride but walking around Messina was interesting still. We've been to Naples, seen Capri and Sorrento and Pompei, all must see's. I'd like to do a hike up to Mt. Vesuvius and/or go to Herculaneum. Just looking forward to spending time with my other half and celebrating his birthday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally/Nicholas Posted May 21, 2012 #24 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Hi David and Terry, We love the Solistice class ships as well! Things are well laid out and of course the wonderful Martini Bar. We choose this cruise because we have not been to Slovenia, Montenegro, Malta, or Corfu before. We have done many different excursions in Naples before, so this time we are doing Positano, maybe we will see Marcello there (Under the Tuscan Sun). We have gone down the Amafi Coast before but never in to Positano which is suppose to be very charming. One week from today we will be in Venice, Have a wonderful flight and look forward to meeting everyone in the Martini Bar!

cruiseone2003 Posted May 27, 2012 #25 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Christopher and Bill, Made it to London last Thursday, spending the weekend in the U.K. before flying to Venice on Wednesday. I too am a fan of the Martini bar and the surrounding social areas, makes for great places to meet up with friends and enjoy a pre dinner cocktail. Safe travels to you both crossing the pond. David & Terry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
