Old Thorny

We are now booked in for May 8, 2020.

Any further information or experiences would be greatly appreciated. How squeezy are the “outside twin share” cabins?

My wife and I are considering The Upper Murray 7 night cruise in May 2020. Anyone been on this cruise?

Amazing, thank you so much. We are sailing on the Emerald Sky in 13 days!

This isn't unique to Emerald. There are low bridges, so the wheelhouse needs to be lowered and the side railings on the sundeck brought down to deck level. When this happens they close the sundeck. I don't know how they decide whether to leave them down between bridges or bring them up and put them down again at the next bridge, but it takes time and effort, so they likely leave them down.

Thanks Andona. Great information.

My DW and I are booked on the Splendors of Europe, Budapest to Amsterdam from September 23 2017 on the Emerald Sky. We are flying with Emirates out of Sydney and spending an extra night in both Budapest and Amsterdam. We have booked most of the extra excursions and hope to get tickets for Anne Frank House.

My DW and I are going on a "Gaither Alaskan" cruise next month on the MS Amsterdam. It is a fully charted cruise and is now booked out. It will feature Southern Gospel singing concerts twice daily (Ithink) with well known artist. The bars and casino will be closed, but you can still have wine etc with your meals. I believe that the cruise is more expensive than a normal cruise. There is also an inspirational speaker on board and daily devotional times, I believe. Bill & Gloria Gaither organise cruises each year, alternating between The Caribeen, Hawaii and Alaska and always featuring Southern Gospel singing (is there any other kind?).:D
