Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Have a look on Aliexpress or temu . You could also consider a vest bag.
  2. Mr Liquor is right at the dock and has excellent wine.
  3. There is a liquor store at the port.
  4. You could buy an international prepaid sim card before you leave.
  5. I used SIM Direct a few years ago and they were great.
  6. Was it formed 250 million years ago and have a use by date?
  7. I have cut down on eating out at restaurants on land and use the money saved to spend on cruises.
  8. Phenergan works very well for me. One 25mg pill every night before bed(they cause drowsiness), starting two days before the cruise. Also works well for mal-disembarkment syndrome.
  9. How good is the wine on board? Do they have a good selection or should I bring my own and pay the corkage?
  10. My partner and I dined twice at the Crown grill twice in November on the Grand out of Melbourne. I read the review you refer to in your op and had a similar experience. The steaks were average, not up to the standard advertised (lacking taste and texture). More like what you would get at a good RSL or a local pub. We brought nice red wine with us (corkage prepaid) and had to ask for red wine glasses on both occasions. The wait staff seemed stressed and rushed which did not make for a relaxed atmosphere. They also gave me the wrong starter lol. I put this down to a lack of staff due to quarantine maybe? Who knows YMMV. My top tip is to ensure your table is not near the kitchen (the first time we were walk-ins and the only available table was near the kitchen) because it is very smokey. It seems they have extractor fan issues.
