Rare jam19872016 Posted October 19, 2023 Author #1877 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Civitavecchia was as expected but my mom found some souvenir shops so she was happy and that's all that matters. We are back on the ship now and about to head to lunch as soon as the dining room opens. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm paying on two bucket-list cruises now and those have priority. What are the 2 cruises??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a review of the QM2, by someone whose entire cruise was utterly ruined, largely because the roasted pineapple had been served cold. They said it was the worst cruise they had ever been on. I agree that warm is better than cold, but really… Edited October 19, 2023 by exlondoner 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this have a double meaning I don’t know, or do you mean upside down cake or perhaps pineapples from Australia even? I too lead a sheltered life, just not to the extent of expecting everything - or, indeed anything - to be perfect. 🙂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 19, 2023 Author #1890 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Tiramisu cheesecake. Forest berry mousse? Thats definitely the warm orange cake, even though he called it mousse. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure it’s nice though, but possibly a little dry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started on Royal Caribbean but I've heard of it on Carnival lately. I will let my friends know not to bring their upside down pineapples on Cunard. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking out for them will certainly enliven my next cruise, though given the age and decrepitude of so many Cunard passengers, I’m not that hopeful. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 19, 2023 Author #1897 Share Posted October 19, 2023 I'm surprised how choppy the water is here. It's spilling over the sea wall in some spots. In port with us today is Symphony of the seas. I almost booked that for my first week and QE for the second week until I saw what a great deal this was. Moby, which I'm guessing is a ferry. We followed Costa Toscana from Naples. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My room is an ice box it sure is tempting right now to crawl under the covers and snooze. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
