Thank you for posting your picture!  I wanted to take pictures while I was there but it seemed there would be passengers in every shot and I didn’t want to make them feel uncomfortable.  (Even though I always “scrub” the faces prior to posting on CC.)  Next time I will try to get there early to do so.

We were in stateroom 8001 such a lovely location right next to the library we would go in the evening when it was very quiet and sit in the green chairs near the lift. Many different view aspects. Thank you for your writing style entertaining and riveting!

I am delighted to read of your experiences particularly your library and "tardis" time!

We love this part of the ship almost a secret area !  This photo from the library on our recent trip to Norway at sunset many rides up and down inthe "tardis"

I understand 

I was on the same cruise

To get around this issue  I have a chase debit card and transfer money into that account to cover the first pre authorisation to register the card (1$)

After that all the attempts by cunard to charge me daily are declined (as there is no money to cover the daily charges)

I then transfer enough money to my chase account to cover my final bill by 2am on the last night of the cruise 

We upgraded on the return segment of transatlantic to Southampton. Though this was Queen Mary 2. 3 of us and we paid 1500gbp to upgrade from sheltered to princess grill which was worth it. We went to the pursers desk all easy 

As a queens grill guest you can have evening dinner menus delivered to your suite for dining ensuite.

You can then choose any quantity of dishes so that in essence your family can dine with you in your suite and enjoy the queens grill menu.

We used to do this regularly when dressing up and going down wasn't of interest to us. Enjoy sharing your experiences together
