I believe that the Crow's Nest is hosting a "Pub Crawl" on Orange Party Night and I think (can't remember) but a sake tasting also.

We are indeed 4 hours ahead of East Coast US time. Ponta Delgada is tomorrow.

Our cabin steward, Aris, just told us that we will be moving clocks ahead one hour again tonight.

We ate in Canaletto for night 3 and the special on the menu was the scallops. Delicious and cooked to perfection. DH had the spaghetti and clams which he liked as well. Last night we ate in Pinnacle Grill. I had the lamb chops. They were huge and oh so tender. DH had the Ribeye steak which was just as tender. I am a little disappointed in the Dive-In chicken sandwich. I had that today and it was very tough and I could not finish it. The milkshakes were a bit too thin but before anyone asks...they were included with our EBP.

Not wanting to steal your thread @Ready2go11 but just a few observations so far. The cabins are smaller than other cruise ships that I have been on but balconies and bathrooms are significantly larger. We ate in the MDR on night 2 and waited in line for 35 minutes for a table. That was probably our fault for waiting until 645pm to go to anytime dinner. Food was good. I had the red snapper and DH had the steak. We really enjoyed both dishes.

I too am on this sailing and to answer the question, in the Lido pool area because it has a retractable roof, it is very comfortable with zero wind and a pleasant temperature considering this morning was 69 degrees outside. Our balcony is on the port side and this afternoon as I began to read out there, I had to quickly get my jacket on as it was rather chilly but still no wind.

Thank you. No rush.

Sorry for the confusion. We are on the Oosterdam on Friday. Our boarding pass says boarding starts at noon.

Thanks for the info.

Don't they give out group numbers? I haven't sailed them in many years but have a sailing this Friday.

Thank you for these words of wisdom and experience. We travel to Lisbon in May and after reading this, we will be on high alert when walking around town.

Happy Easter to you all as well.

Same as the Ship Shape Manhattan.

We will be on this ship next year so are interested in your interior spaces photos. We have never been on Rotterdam before. Definitely hope things improve for you...and very soon.

@Haljo1935Thanks so much. You're the best. Hope to follow you soon on another one of your adventures.
