In Toronto

Norwegianlatvian: Please come back with more information.:)

What did you do in the ports?

If you pack and scatter your items, and get sent to the naughty room...do they go thru your entire luggage and confiscate everything, or just what they zoomed in on?

In other words, if one thing is found....is every area of your luggage then searched?

No, they do not. ;)

Thank you. I think that it will be Lobster Alive for us. What is the restaurant like? We would only want snacks or small meals and a couple of drinks.

Is Lobster Alive a little more subdued than Boatyard? I have read some reviews where the Boatyard sounds a little wild. We don't mind a lively atmosphere but we are a little (?) older and really don't want blaring music and drunk patrons.

Opinions please.

Thanks.

Ellen

What a lot of fabulous information.

Thank you.

Ellen

Steppy08: What a fantastic review! Have enjoyed this so much. Love your personality and sense of humour!

Thank you so much.

Welcome Home Aggie:

We have just this afternoon booked B2B on the Jewel for November.

Would love to hear just a few of your experiences.

Where was your cabin located and was that a good location. (We can still change ours).

Thanks.

Ellen

Hi Sarah.

Well, I am back from the cruise. Enjoyed it immensely! Your hints were so helpful. Copied your recommendations for the various meals and have to say that I tried many of them. Your family's tastes must be the same as mine.

So glad to hear that you did well on your exams. Good for you.

Will be doing a review soon. Not that it will compare to yours!!!!!!!!!:D

Regards,

Ellen

I am off on my Volendam cruise. Will report back in a couple of weeks with the perspective of an older cruiser (much older!).:D

Thanks, Sarah, for all the wonderful pictures and your very entertaining review. Good luck on the rest of your exams. It has been a pleasure.

Regards,

Ellen

Sarah, you really are the sweetest!

Actually we don't leave until Wednesday so will be checking in until tomorrow (Tuesday) evening.

Ellen

Hi Ellen,

 

LOL OMG okay, well uhm, I'll try my best to update it as much as I can before wednesday, but I can't guarantee too much since right now, it's final exams/provincial exam season for highschoolers, && I have a final for chemistry on monday ^^' so.. I'll try my best! I'll update in breaks of my studying :p

 

I'm happy that you're enjoying my review! ~

Oh, Sarah. Please don't worry about it. I know that this is exam time and just concentrate on your schoolwork.

I will enjoy reading the rest of your review when I return from our Alaskan cruise on the Volendam. Will then be able to compare to our experiences.

Thanks so much for doing this for us.

Good luck to you.

Ellen

Hi Sarah.

Don't want to push you, but we leave for our Volendam cruise on Wednesday so only a few more days for you to fill us in!:D

Really enjoying this review.

Ellen

Hopefully The Neptunes will still be on the ship when we sail her. Love that kind of performers!

Wonderful!!!!

Keep it coming!

Ellen

All I can say is YUM!!!!

That is my meal all the way!

Ellen

Thanks for continuing to post your review and pictures. Lovely!

Can you tell me at what time the shows were? Trying to decide when to book our dinner time.

BTW. Was planning to book the Pinnacle for lunch on the first "sea" day, but after reading the menu you posted, have changed my mind. It looks just as good as the Pinnacle and we get the view thrown in. May book it for the last "sea" day after you post that menu - Ha Ha!

Do you have the daily schedule, by any chance, and could post them.

Ellen

Very interesting so far. Love the pictures. Looking forward to more.

Ellen

This is a really fun review! Enjoying it. Keep it coming please.

Ellen

Hi Sarah.

Just exactly what I was hoping for. We sail the Volendam to Alaska in June. So, keep it coming. Will probably have lots of questions (unless you are very detailed!).

Ellen

Loved the slideshow. Thank you.

Please keep it coming!!!!!!!!!:)

Soooooooooooooo Funny!
