Rare Silver Spectre Posted June 1, 2018 Author #2 Share Posted June 1, 2018 No way to the zodiacs on deck 9 Except up the stairs and into Tors Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Silver Spectre Posted June 1, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Love the new Tors Obs Lounge, so much better than the old, head banging gym And the chairs have chains to stop them moving in rough weather Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Silver Spectre Posted June 1, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted June 1, 2018 The theatre, heavily Muse’ified. The seats are now uncomfortable and if you sit on the bench behind, you can see.....nothing! Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Silver Spectre Posted June 1, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted June 1, 2018 The photography team, and the photo workshop, located in the old casino. They have some lovely state of the art Apple Macs, but no internet access, in fact no guest work stations at all on the ship. The new gym (old card room, so no bridge on these voyages), right next door to the HD’s office And the Library. The wicker chairs have no cushions and are pretty uncomfortable.

Rare Silver Spectre Posted June 1, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Slipped into a Silver Suite on deck 6 when no one (apart from Wellseasoned) was looking. Impressed with the way that two mid ships verandas have been used to make a Silver. There is no tub though, just a very good rain forest shower. Apparently the hot water system is much improved.

And, it's pretty cool that you got to see and spend time with WellSeasoned. One question... do the Silver Suites basically have the same closet as a Veranda and don't get any extra space?

les37b Posted June 2, 2018 #15 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Did you notice the chains holding down the tables in the MDR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Silver Spectre Posted June 2, 2018 Author #16 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Did you notice the chains holding down the tables in the MDR? I did, and I figured out that the removal of all the shelves in the suites is connected. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jpalbny Posted June 3, 2018 #18 Share Posted June 3, 2018 It’s always four o’clock somewhere in the world Mr. Silver. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Kinda what I was thinking! Many years ago I had to fly to Bornholm (a tiny rock in the Baltic) for my sister's wedding. We flew on a red-eye from JFK-LHR (back in the day when they plied you with liquor even in economy) and landed at the crack of dawn to make our connection to Denmark. So of course, that was a great time to visit the Scotch shop in Heathrow Airport, and taste a few samples, at some ungodly hour when I should have been eating breakfast. A fine single malt tastes good even early in the morning with a hangover. It sure made me feel better! Stumblefoot, with that attitude, I think we'll have a fun time together on our cruise. Nothing beats a good breakfast wine! And thanks to Silver Spectre for this thread about your visit to one of our favorite SS ships. Too bad we don't get to see it firsthand until next August.

Amen JP! Oddly enough, I’m on a BA flight right now taxiing to the runway to await departure. You should have seen the look the flight attendant gave me when I said I’ll have a single malt once we get airborne. Ah, yes, it’s the simple pleasures for me. We’ll definitely have a grand time in January, 2020. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
