Thanks for posting those great pictures. To my delight I saw that the prommenade deck of QA is indeed NOT blocked by the liveboats- well at least it looks like it when looking at the picture on post 28. Can´t wait to see for sure if that is the case.

Celebrity Constellation Refurb 2024? Is this a nice ship?
Germancruiser replied to Marga.Anders's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Can´t wait to see the first pictures of the refurb of Connie! One of my favorite Milli- Class ships- oh well I like them- really. LOL. -
Thanks for taking us along. It has been 20 years since we sailed Radiance. I was a big fan of RCI- when there ships started to get " out of hand"- means bigger and bigger- biggest- they where just no longer for me. I stopped after Voyager of the Seas- even that I found to big. LOL. Radiance Class ships are my favorite with Royal. Colony Club esp. is a great place to read. I am now sailing X or Cunard. Always fond memories of my fist - back then- biggest ships out there, which was Grandeur and all the Vision Class ships- they where called " Megaliners" back then...!

Live - Vision of the Seas, April 12th from Norfolk!
Germancruiser replied to Rewind's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Thank you for taking us along. My last voyage on Vision was back in 1999- a Transcanal cruise. Very fond memories. Interessting to see the changes inside. She looks very well kept. -
One never ceast to learn. I had no idea what a "Miami Vice" is- other then the series of the 80´s when we all wanted look like good Don and dressed the part. A drink and nice looking one too, thx.

I never have had any issues with kids running wild with Cunard- different Story with Royal- but there it is something one suspects- they are more built for family´s than any ship of Cunard. The kids are not to blame- it´s the parents who are responsible - which has to do with the different upbringing - some parents really should " run a tighter ship " with their kids- but thats it is not a topic for CC- lol.

Missing Passenger from Icon of the Seas (Cozumel)
Germancruiser replied to Lane Hog's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I agree- why should that not be posted here? There other topics coming to mind that I deem not worth posting- lol. -
Once on a voyage to New York a fellow traveller - around my age ( mid 50s) - told me - that he knows this ship is gods anteroom- but he so loves to travel on board Mary. That came to mind when read that article. I just answered - well we both are not really spring chickens anymore- LOL and both of us had a good laugh about it. The truth is that many many people thing ship voyages are for the nearly departed. I have never heard of the guy who wrote that articel but I liked the articel nevetheless. About his garments- well if you want meet exentrics- the Mary is the ship to go. And yes- I am triffle exentric as well. LOL. What a delicate bunch of humans are out there- one word wrong and one is put either in that or in that cupboard ( sexism- ageism...and so on my ) !

I did not know the Sun -but now I do. LOL. What a sensation- people paniced- I dout that anyone above could smell anything. Good that we have the first hand report to put things in order. Se.. sales ( sensation I mean of course😁) Good that we have a firt hand report. The only thing that I can imagine is that wake up call. We had that once just the night before entering NY- at around 1am or so. Medical evacuation. The first thing Cap. Hasmi told us was that everything with ship was fine. He just wanted to explain why we stopped ( which I did not even notice before) .

What a wonderful entertaining topic that has become- very funny, indeed. Even though I can imagine why bring that thing to get more outlets- but the other... hm- maybe cruise lines should printing that they offer cruises and not time on a camp ground. Well handcuffs... but that´s a different story alltogether...!

Sloopy maintenance possibly- the " Edgesation" or whatever they called is was years ago- even before Covid struck.

I know that may not go down well with fans of the old QE2. I sailed her once- because I absoulley needed to sail on board the Legend once- well before QM2 was on the horizon. What a gasthly ship- strange layout, confusing staircases. They tried very hard to convert the ugly, plastic, horendous interior of the 60´s to change into something more " liner like"! Alone that Queens Room- in the first livery- puh... then the midships lounge in it´s first appreance...! The location of the Queens Room- long curtains at the side to shield it from the inside promenade. I could go on and on..! This one week was quite enough. So yes- I rather like what I saw of QA so far- and I have not yet forgiven Cunard for taking away the promenade deck- lol.

Scary announcement on the last night
Germancruiser replied to wildescapade's topic in Celebrity Cruises
One should ignore those hypocrites for bashing around for being curious. Curiosity is in the human nature- otherwise we would still live in the tree´s! I - myself are always curious. LOL. Hope they could help the poor passenger who needed the blood.
