    Tomorrow we arrive in Funchal on Madeira. April 25th is a public holiday celebrating 50 years since the Carnation Revolution in 1974 when the dictatorship was overthrown.

    Tonight we had dinner in Tamarind. For drinks I had a Lychee Martini and Ellen had Prosecco. With dinner I had the Morimoto brut rose. Food selections were the scallops and satay sampler followed by crispy duck with fried rice for me and mangolian lamb chops for Ellen. For dessert we shared mango posset and assorted sorbets. Here is the porn....

    Today was Indonesian Tea at 3pm. After reading about how this event is greatly missed, we were looking forward to a nice event. Major disappointment. The only difference to the usual afternoon tea was the top layer of cake/pastry/sweet things. Sandwiches and scones were identical.

    Presuming you mean the stateroom key card then the key cards are already punched when you collect them in your stateroom mailbox.

    They have 7 months before embarkation. Plenty of time to hone the knitting needles to a fine point. 😁

    Good morning from Nieuw Statendam. Our third consecutive sea day as we cruise to Funchal, Madiera. wishing everone a great day!

    Ok I know the thread title is click bait, but I just noticed tonight that on Nieuw Statendam all mention of Rolling Stone Rock Room has been removed and it is now named Rolling Stone Lounge. The website also just lists Rolling Stone Lounge now. I will take the "glass half full' view that this is positive for continuation of the rock music entertainment.

    Yes. He said he would bring an extra one. I told him to start with two.

    Yes the ship will change time to match the time zones. Even 1 hour. You will see a reminder on the Navigator app, which also shows the current Ship Time. A small card will be placed on your bed at turn down on night before the time change and it is listed in the Daily, which is the daily program of events.

    Absolutely it remains available. We wanted to us OBC in conjunction with our unused credit balance and the credit balance is still showing as available .

    We gained an hour last night as we moved from UTC + 2hrs to UTC + 1hr. We will stay at this time until (probably) next Sunday when we will lose the hour again to be inline with European time.

    Today's Afternoon tea was listed as "Pate de choux afternoon tea" however it looked exactly the same as yesterday's tea. Ok the pastries are a little different. Yesterday we were at a table for 7 (yes 7) and there were 2 of the stands placed on the table. 🙄 so that would be 3 x 2 = 6 finger sandwiches amongst 7 people. 🫣 and 4 scones amongst 7.

    So today I had a chat with Max and his wife Cinsia. They will be married 3 years next month, they live in Rome and are big Formula 1 fans. That is how we got talking as he spotted me reading Geunther Steiner's book "surviving to drive" and came over.
