No, it isn't - sorry.

We sailed the Summit to Bermuda on 5/24/15. It was a very pleasant surprise to find the MDR open for lunch on embarkation day.

Maybe I drink more than you guys but I say Positively. Absolutely. No question about it. I was in a huge group, can't really call it a line, at a pool bar and it took 20 minutes to get a drink. Also, the days of waiters walking around taking your drink order so you ca relax by the pool are also all but over hence the mob at the pool bar. Lol The bar at the buffet was usually empty and when not busy, the service at the Sunset Bar was ok. Martini Bar was hit or miss. But I've been cruising for 20 years and the change in the last couple of years has been dramatic imo.

We did not experience this at all! On the Summitt, bar staff was carrying around trays of daily drink specials, and also other ones taking orders. Wait at bars were no worse than any club off of a ship. Martini bar was busier but entertainment by the bartender made the wait not bad at all. At dinner we always drank wine so the waiter would come us ask us our choice and just bring us a bottle one night two. For dessert I always had a dessert wine and it was always brought right around the serving of dessert. The lounge outside the dining room was really busy with people having a drink before dinner but the casino bar was not busy at that time. With the individual price of drinks on cruises now the beverage package is very much worth it. Also add to that water and special coffee and sports drinks. So nice to see that next to nothing bill at the end of the cruise.

How was the snorkel tour? How was your trip?

So sorry! You may of heRd mention of the horrible winds we had. All tours were cancelled. Though they did meet us Tory us know as we tried to move it each day. Of course they did not charge. We had s wonderful trip even though we did not get to do very much. Loved the ship and we will just have to go again.

Can't believe it is in 2 days. I will report back!

We are doing snorkel in a week. Will update

We love to go by ourselves. Helps us connect again.. There is nothing better than to go on a cruise with your kids and grandkids. So many memories of when we cruised with the kids and now we get to do it with the grandkids. Seeing my grandson's face when he saw that towel alligator on the floor and the cowboy in our bed next door was priceless. Our room attendants were wonderful. Oh and this was just in ocean view cabins nothing extravagant. Then we also do cruises with our friends that love to go to other countries and do port heavy tours. We are going to Istanbul and the Geek Islands. We are meeting ahead of time, sipping wine and hor doreves and planning our trip. The anticipation and planning are a lot of it. Makes it seem like our vacation lasts a lot longer. We do different slot of things on our own while on the ship as we both have different interests. Trivia vs a massage!

The cabins on a ship are nothing like hotel rooms in most resorts...be prepared for that!

Yes we are Palace owners and they have a two person jacuzzi and fully stocked bar in every room!
