  1. KEF is pretty far from the center of Reykjavik, so it didn't surprise us that a private transfer cost $150 but the door to door service was worth it. We used https://www.rvkcars.com/airport-transfer
  2. Meteora is absolutely worth two days in this 'Athens' post-cruise stay – stop at Delphi on the way there, get to Meteora for sunset on the first day, stay overnight and see 2-3 monasteries on the second day, then be driven back to Athens or the airport.
  3. New article on CruiseIndustryNews: Silver Ray Completes Conveyance [on River Ems] Not your usual 'river cruise' but an interesting picture!
  4. This is what I think of when I hear 'waitron':
  5. Jeff your bread always looks delicious. As to pizza – you should have imported the oven from NY. Neapolitan pizza doesn't really cut it once you've had NY thin crust pizza... πŸ˜€
  6. Many of us here on the Boards part of Cruise Critic don't read the Reviews part – because there are so many one-post-wonders there. Could you copy your review (or retype it) and post it here? Thanks!
  7. Johnny Cash had a song about it
  8. Haven't done this with Azamara, but we did Chobe and Vic Falls with AmaWaterways in 2018. Victoria Falls is amazing and worth the trip alone. Chobe was only ok – if you want to see the Big 5, the Kruger extension would be a good choice. My blog of the 2018 river safari trip is here: jazzbeauxafricansafari2018.wordpress.com [note: that lion is purring happily πŸ˜€]
  9. Sadly it was acquired and refurbished at the worst time for Covid supply-chain issues. We were led to believe the poor items would be replaced, but evidently that plan has been cancelled. I am avoiding Onward in my planning.
  10. Thanks Margo for your report about your cruise on Onward. Others may want to start their own thread to report their experiences.
  11. Thanks for this! I'm in the equivalent cabin (8056) on Journey on my next cruise.
  12. I'm guessing the big white area across the hall is the funnel.
  13. There was a move in the 1980s to de-gender terms, and this was one of the aborted early efforts. Since then it has been recognized that terms like 'waiter' and 'actor' are not in fact gendered – the error was making female-gender versions of them which were never necessary. Every female performer in Hollywood now calls herself an 'actor.' So I call all restaurant servers 'waiter.' note: this must be different in France, where 'garΓ§on' is clearly gendered. It is also different for clearly gendered terms like 'weatherman' – for that one I use the non-gendered term 'wild guesser' 🀣
  14. moved to Princess forum since question seems to relate to Princess-owned lodges
  15. moved to Ports of Call – Africa & Middle East
