Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thanks for that great detailed response. I really like how you felt you utilized the space because of the bed next to the window. We are really looking forward to our cruise on Beyond. Thanks for a great review.
  2. Thanks for this review. Excellent insights and pics. Never been on Edge class before. Sailing Beyond in August so this is truly helpful. Tell me more why you liked the Infinite Verandas so much?
  3. We are trying to work out this plan: August 3-10 on Enchanted Princess to Eastern Caribbean, and Celebrity Beyond August 10-18 to ABCs. I haven’t been on a Royal Class ship yet(Pam has) and neither one of us has been on an Edge Class ship yet. Mini Suite Club Class on Princess, and Infinite Veranda on Beyond. Figure we have to see if the IV is something we will like(something about contempt prior to investigation keeps popping into my head). We have some nice benefits on both lines (Pam is Platinum on Princess and we both are Elite on Celebrity). We’ll be able to pop on lots of onboard credit to both sailings via branded credit cards as well. I think we can swing it if we get someone to watch our Golden Retriever Graziella (Grazie) for those two weeks+. We may also have committed to a trip out west to Idaho/ Yellowstone, but may push that off a couples of years. Never done side by side before and the ships are intriguing. It also gives me a chance to do some comparative reviews for CC. Pam sailed Holland America about 30 years ago, but hasn’t recently. I have yet to sell Holland America. We haven’t really looked into them yet. We love Celebrity, and think Princess is very good too.. Perhaps we should look into HAL as well? I think part of the reason we haven’t looked at HAL yet is that Pam wasn’t in their demographics when she sailed with them. Now we’re both in their target market. I am looking forward to hearing what you think about HAL. I’ve truly enjoyed being on the journey you and Carol have brought us all on during this review. Judging by the comments on these pages, so have many others! Give the cats a scratch from us, Travel safely to Germany. Trip and Pam
  4. Brilliant as always! Stay warm. Looking forward to the next GSJ as well as your HAL experiences. Hi to Carol.
  5. We love downtown Georgetown. We like to snorkel at Eden Rock Dive Center right in tow. Great place to snorkel with excellent views of the ships at anchor.
  6. Norris, We ate at that spot on my first cruise back in 2005 on my first cruise ( Carnival). I don’t know if it’s the same restaurant, but I vividly remember that view. Location, location, location. Too bad the food wasn’t on par with the view
  7. Looking forward to the canal pictures. The Canal cruise is definitely on my bucket list!
  8. Probably like 3 or 4 chances to get the required points. The laundry perk is great. The others are ok. Also try the Elite Breakfast. Nice and relaxing.
  9. Thanks for the description. Looking forward to seeing your great photos. Well done as always.
  10. Norris, It seems that Cartagena has a Miami vibe to it from the looks of all those high rises? They seem to be right on the water, kind of like the sail out from Port Miami past Miami Beach.
  11. Carol, Must be great to get back to an ancestral home every now and then. Got to Ireland twice. Still need to get to Slovakia (I know, a horrible combination😆😆) Love it when we get to hear from you too for your thoughts.
  12. Thanks for the insight. Pam has sailed with HAL many years ago. Said the demographic wasn’t for her. Now that we’re in that particular demographic, it might be time to try them (again in Pam’s case).
  13. Might go to see our former next door neighbors. They moved back to Boise. Might turn into a Yellowstone visit. Pam is the ultimate arbiter. So far I’ve been lucky only having C-19 once. Guessing my turn in the barrel will come soon 😕😕 The HAL thing intrigues me. What brought you to that? Interested to hear. Hi to Carol
  14. Norris Sorry you have the crud again. How many times now? Pam and I always enjoy hearing of yours and Carol’s adventures. We THINK we will be doing our first side by side this summer on Enchanted Princess (7 nt) to the Easter Caribbean and The Beyond (8 nt) to the ABCs. Might ding one of them for a land vacation. We’ll be following along closely. We hope that you and Carol will have a healthy and happy new year. Feel better my friend.. Trip
