  1. we live in UK so pretty used to wet weather and my husband also uses a mobility scooter you can buy clear waterproof covers for the front console which will protect starter etc from rain battery being under the seat is less likely to get a soaking but best to get waterproof covering for the rider which will also cover battery my husband has a poncho type which covers his knees waterproof trousers and overshoes which fit over his regular footwear he uses a rucksack type arrangement which fits over back of seat to store all this stuff until required!
  2. a few years ago we did regional train with no reservations-what a mistake we were one of first at Berlin station with our cases but as train pulled in people surged past us to get on train ahead of us we ended up sitting on our cases after lugging them up the stairs on train for most of journey to Rostock where we has a hotel booked took local train to Warnemunde next day to embark be warned although there is a wheelchair accessible route we couldnt find it and ended up lugging our cases down and up steps to get across rail to cruise ships
  3. ring MSC they will give you a code for discount parking in Southampton nearest embarkation
  4. we are sailing with MSC and got code from cruiseline Cunard last year we got a code for cps depends which port the cruisline uses
  5. as the title suggests are there Gala nights on cruises less than 7 days? ours is a 5 day from Southampton UK in May we are treating Daughter Son In law and our 2 Grandaughters aged 4 and 2 and wondering whether to pack dressy clothes for evenings
  6. Having visited Flam and Geiranger they are well worth seeing-we went ed May but sail in/out spectacular
  7. you may want to ask this on Europe ports of call for more specific geogrhical info However Civitiveccia would be accessible via taxi or mobility scooter along road from port into town-no pavement'sidewalk so on road its a quiet seaside village but interesting if you dont want to head into Rome Ibiza-similar Marseilles-are you actually docking Toulon?
  8. we are cruising out of Southampton end of May our boarding time is 3pm we want to travel down earlier in case of traffic issues so anticipate having a few ideas to kill in Southampton Any suggestions for keeping active toddlers aged 3 and 2 entertained in the area?
  9. thanks for suggestion However we would never be asked to leave the main pools as the purpose of my question was to check if it was allowed in the first place apparantly P and O are one of the few companies that allow them However as I mentioned further up the page it may be a moot point as she may well be potty trained by May
  10. however swim nappies/diapers are sold for a reason and they are aloowed in public swimming baths
  11. this is a cruise out of UK and sailing within Europe
  12. thanks for replies Grandaughter will be a week short of her 2nd birthday at time of cruise in May but already showing interest in the potty as she copies her big sister hopefully will be potty trained by then
  13. Hi we will be sailing with grandaughters aged 3 and almost 2 in June some cruiselines allow swim diapers-how does MSC stand on this
  14. if you head to the Florida ports of call on this forum you may get more info there last year a friend arrnaged shared shuttle transportation from Orlando area hotel to Port Canaveral-I cant remember the company but there are several private companies that offer this service either as on a seat by seat basis on a bus or a completely private transportation in a limo if you can cancel MSC transport you may find this a better option and at least you will be able to plan!
