I am so glad you had a lovely time! We are going on Sept 24th. Hubby is itching to play some Texas Hold'em. Were there any tables in the casino for this yet? I know some other cruiselines have them now.

 

How were the formal nights? Ratio of tuxes and evening gowns versus suits and cocktail dresses?

 

What was your favorite menu item?

 

Thanks! I am sure I'll think of more!

Wow Dano and I thought I was being extravagant sailing in June and September this year on Zenith to Bermuda ;). We were also on the Sept 3 voyage. I didn't even mind the rocking and rolling on Wednesday night and the extra sea-day on Thursday with beautiful weather was such a bonus. I just love Zenith and her crew and would do it again next summer but I'm afraid my husband will think I'm totally nuts :D. Maybe I could tell him about you ;)

 

Fabnsab...the formal night dress was about 95% observed. I would say tux to dark suit ratio was 50-50. There were many nice gowns and long cocktail dresses too. I think everyone looked elegant, even the children were dressed up in pretty dresses and jacket and tie. We had late dinner.

 

My favorite menu item...that's hard. I do love their rack of lamb and veal cordon bleu. Every soup is wonderful especially the Caroline and the asparagus soup. Appetizers are delicious. Love the mushroom pastry, and the spinach and cheese puff thingy with cheese sauce. And all the desserts are yummy too.

 

Oh boy, time to plan the next cruise, I'm making myself hungry :D

DH and I are already booked on Zenith for May 27-June 3 to Bermuda.We are going with friends we met on Century in 1999.I am sure we will just love her.This will be our 7 cruise on Celebrity but first on Zenith.I hope the weather will be good that time of year warm with no threats of Hurricanes either in Bermuda or back home in sunny FLA.

Hey dano sorry I didn't see you.

 

Yeah, it's Wednesday and I should be sitting by the pool, listening to the band play and contemplating what I'm gonna eat for dinner tonight :D

 

Instead I'm sitting here dreaming about it. :mad:

 

Just heard from a friend on the ship that they are leaving early again...tonight at 6:30. Don't know if they made it to St. George. Looks like Orphelia is impacting them.

Thanks for answering my questions, you two. I am so happy to hear such great reviews.

 

I hate the back-from-vacation blues! I start to get the blues usually around the 6th night of the cruise. I always have to come back and start planning the next one immediately! The one cruise we went on, we had a few days after to stay in Puerto Rico, so that helped a bit.
