LIVE from the SUN Princess - 9 Mar 2024 - 10-Day Mediterranean - Second Voyage

FOOD!!!   love this topic...

No Souffle on embarkation lunch????   That was supposed to be my first soufflé on our next cruise!!

I wonder how many of the Embarkation Lunch fans here might 'develop' food allergies!!!

And...  What is a Bratwurst Dog????   Is it the standard hot-dog, dressed differently?  What the heck does 'curry' have to do with Bratwurst??? 

Bring back the 'wurst with kraut'!!!

Here’s another of my little anecdotes: there is no exterior light on the balcony. Nice that neighbors can’t leave it on.

This is by far more information than I have ever expected. Thank you @CanadianBurger and keep on sending those pictures  This is far better than that guy from YouTuber.

Late show in the Princess Arena! Again, it feels smaller than the impression you get from the promo photos.

@CanadianBurger Thank you for taking us along on your cruise! I’m loving your photos and videos!

 

We are in a Reserve Mini-Suite in November and have a couple questions if you are able to answer. Do they have the prime rib cart in the Reserve restaurant at dinner? On the deck plan for your cabin does it indicate “bed by entrance” or “sofa by entrance”?

 

Enjoy your cruise and thanks again for all your information so far!!!

So, oddly enough, the deck plan on Princess.com says “sofa by entrance”, but that’s obviously not the case. Unless they mean balcony entrance, but that makes no sense…

 

No prime rib tonight, but it is on the menu for tomorrow.

Thank you for sharing.

Pretty cool venue when the curtain was lifted. Felt quite intimate for a magician.

The magician was Magical Bones. Quite a good show. His card skills were impressive.

Interesting to see empty seats.

Thanks for the pictures. I guess I will pack my wide-angle lens for my 35mm Canon when I go in October.

Enjoying the thread.

Entertainment in O’Malley’s.

@Jemnibabe02  You asked about accessible spaces in the old Sun Princess thread - I think this shows at least one specific area at the top of the arena where you have a companion seat in front of that glass screen

Fancy gold-rimmed cut-glass glasses at Crooners.

Reserve Dining Room Dinner. The salmon and my filet were cooked perfectly. They have special plates for beef apparently. We didn’t stay for dessert tonight.

So my overpacking wife was worried about the closet space, but we’re pleasantly surprised that there’s lots of storage. Plus, there’s a DRAWER in the bathroom finally!

 

Aww, did she leave the bathroom drawer for your clothes? She is sooo sweet! Please tell her that I love her dress. 😊

Is that the Cabana deck below? Thx

No, the Cabana private deck area is forward of the Sphere. This is Eatery outdoor dining space.

Thank you so much for the pics and commentary! I appreciate the time it takes to do this.

I was going to post that I'm onboard Sun Princess for Cruise Critic, but I see @CanadianBurger is doing an amazing job! Carry on, sir!

These guys were on the Enchanted in November and always drew a big crowd. They are very talented!

 

Your review and all the pics are fabulous. Thank you for taking the time.

Thanks for the photos of the menu and the food. Did they have an extra entrée for Reserve Collection that wasn’t on the menu?
