Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. It IS in a quiet location with lovely views of the water. It was walkable to several nice restaurants. We used a delightful Tours by Locals guide, Judith Hagen, and she used public transportation which was accessible with a sort walk.
  2. We also loved D”Angleterre in Copenhagen, and The Thief in Oslo.
  3. Often Bow ties don’t show up until close to sailing. Makes it tricky to make dinner reservations 120 days out. Days when tours run late into the afternoon seem to seldom be a Formal night, if that guides you at all. Sea days MIGHT have a Formal night.
  4. Oops - the thief.com - no spaces!
  5. We spent some time in Oslo post cruise last August, and stayed in the city at The Thief (the thief.com). We enjoyed the hotel and the location very much
  6. If you are heading to San Juan to board on Monday, Sunday (tomorrow) a festival continues in Old San Juan. We were to stay in Old San Juan tomorrow night. Our car service just called to tell us there was no way they could deliver us to the hotel - streets are not passable for vehicles, and are totally full of walkers. They had to divert many of their deliveries today and have them complete their arrival to the hotel on foot with luggage. We just cancelled our room, and rescheduled out of Old San Juan. Our Transfer company told us not to try for any other hotel in Old San Juan near the Dawn as we would have to walk. We are grateful for his call. Hope you find this helpful if you have Old San Juan hotel reservations and want a car to deliver you to the door!
  7. If you don’t have any luck finding a new map - maybe just use a different color marker on your last map. I might be fun to see how the two itineraries compare on one map.
  8. UKCruise Jeff, I will also miss your always thoughtful posts. I thought that I had saved your dough recipe, and am unable to find it, although I think you have modified it since I did try to save it. Would you be willing to share your latest recipe? The cooler weather and your wonderful pics of bagels and baguettes are tempting me!
  9. We recently spent 3 nights at the Reykjavik Konsolat Hilton in the older part of the city. The famous hotdog stand is next door. There were many nice restaurants within walking distance, and the included breakfast at the hotel was very good. The room and bath were both excellent, and the staff was very pleasant and helpful. We would highly recommend it for both location and pleasant accommodations.
  10. Try earlier than midnight - I’ve never tried as early as 6 PM, but often have been able to reserve after 10 or 11 PM
  11. Will Work for Tiramisu - I LOVE this story, especially since I know those areas well. We now live in Erie, frequented North East all of our lives, and grew up in Ripley and Westfield, NY. I would LOVE to know who the members of the local group were! If you’re willing to share, would you email me at msinden24atgmail.com?
