  1. We had heard the night befor we reached Iceland that 3 were leaving. Sad to hear that was true. Prayers for them and their families. Saw some of what looked like maybe crew changes too. God speed for all traveling
  2. @Sugar Magnolia Looks yummy. Similar to open faced sandwiches of Denmark? Thought of you the other night re LB. Talking about food… well L.B was not as we remembered, and was loud etc. Filet was HUGE. slightly underdone which says a lot because I like tartare… Nice sized piece of f.g. On top. Escargot was missing salt imho, and idk what..I salted. That helped. Endive salad was heavy on Blu cheese… Had the marron clementine pastry. Delicate. Would have liked more clementine inside. Moved our next SD back to Palomar
  3. Iceland was great. we had a Golden a circle at our with access friends here yesterday..11 of us experienced lovely incredible sites, walks and short hikes, laughs, rain, sleet, hail, sunshine, local brews and food at an off the beaten path wine-gastro pub that also had hydroponic greenhouses. Since we were in Iceland early..we were up and out to use the free shuttle yesterday to explore town before lunch on the ship and then the tour. Back to the ship late..in bed by 1130p. We took s historic tour via ship tour today which was a good way to see the area, burbs etc ..and despite the rain, we had fun. We were onboard and sat for lunch with the snow flurries. sail away is sunny and gorgeous. Iceland showed off in lots of ways. Don’t like the weather, wait 5 min. On the Face to Face..nothing said Iceland in the daily..clearly caused confusion with poor editing. See ya in the Commodore tom. Need to look at entertainment…got so busy with Iceland we forgot. I thought tonight was 80s in Syds, no reserv, and something later in theater..dancing..no reserv? On room service..if we use it..it’s normally early am Anyone know if those late 4 pax made the ship? seems like they ran late provisioning..as we left late
  4. We asked this am and were told the in person is for UK. Since we got here early we took the free bus into town and walked a couple hours to see sites. Need the exercise. Back onboard for lunch. About to meet our CC group for our GC tour. Hoping the weather cooperates with no rain. We will be gone 8 hours and miss dinner service and do dinner during our tour. No shortage of food, I just had soup and crudite for lunch…
  5. Some woman just got on with us earlier….we only went up a floor to 8…so she was going to have trouble 😈 since she’d need a card for any service anywhere in H anyway. And would be escorted out. is Choc Cowboy on the ship? Will look next time we are down there. Dinner in Le Bistro tonight..asking for extra fois gras “crap-ola” garnish on my filet
  6. Captn Outs report this AM indicated tonight’s weather to deteriorate… sigh. Are we getting snow tom? On the crowd control….there are tour guides etc. And there has been signage. It is interesting re culture Wondering where the party girl where be…it’s like Where’s Waldo. Where she is..is where the fun is for certain. And she’s not telling. unless you bring cookies
  7. We ate in Commodore after Rumors w @Raybancop n spouse last evening. got a pager. They had us in quickly. Good service. Steak was perfect.
  8. We love YC So…The shows on Prima have been excellent. As Haven the concierge made reservations for the Donna Summers show. It was outstanding. The Rock the Pour House was great. The band did a long set..maybe 90 min…16 songs with transitions. Rumors, 45 min The wait in line is a bit of a pill yet both were great. We do feel NCL takes it here for entertainment..strong voice talent main venues. But it’s not a YC vs Haven..that’s NCL vs MSC. Rock of Ages on MSC was good…and we liked Cirque pre cvd. We enjoyed the blended ballet-opera matinee pre cvd .. IDK what it takes to bring in talent and to plan. Haven menu doesn’t change…and with 15 days…the same lunch and dinner menu means getting creative with choosing. They are accommodating beyond the printed page as is YC when you do B2Bs and need a change
  9. Haha well under that myself. though the avg age is pretty high for certain. We have had 2 great le Bistro meals before and 1 horrendous Cagneys that we’d never go back…other ships. Palomar here was great. We are in Le Bistro Tom. If it disappoints, we will move the other res to Palomar.
  10. We joined line at about 615 with friends Stood 45min. waited in seats 45 min Show 45 min I did bring our cheese plate from our cabin but no food allowed in venue so after a few bites in the hall, took it to leave in neighboring bar. others here on CC had been in line prior to 6 to get prime seats center high top. @Sugar Magnolia sorry to miss you and the posse… what’s the plan tonight…another sea day Tom….though we lose an hour again tonight
  11. Good morning from somewhere off of Greenland enroute to Iceland. No Haven priority to see the “hot” entertainment in the Syds venue. So we stood in line to see Rock the Pour Hour this week. Great cover band. Super show. Timed it right and being on a 15 night TA we know these shows are super popular. Got 2 of last seats Did the same last night, to see the Rumors show..the cover of the Fleetwod Mac album. Also excellent. Mind you we stood in line 45 min. Then wanted 45 min, then show 45 min. Done. The big criticism even for NCL loyalists is the no reservations for those hot shows.
  12. Good morning. We enjoyed Rumors last night though thought the a Rock the Pour House was more fun. Dinner in Commodore after the 7:30p show Did go by the 80s event at 10:30p looking for @Sugar Magnolia and posse yet didn’t see anyone from Cc group or those we’ve met onboard. Flatter seas so the click in the one corner has subsided. Normal creaks Hear that it’s a WD 40 thing we get it..Heavy seas, pitch, roll. we do wish we had gotten an answer…If it comes back I will ask the direct question.. if it was looked at.
