I've stayed twice at Relais Trevi 95 in Rome. Very nice boutique hotel, good breakfast in the morning. Great location, two blocks from Trevi Fountain. We would absolutely stay there again. Hope this helps.

You are so very welcome!!!

We were just in Paris this past weekend and stayed at the Dreams Hotel Opera Paris. We paid $310/night for 4 nights. We asked how much they are charging for the Olympics and they stated 21 out of 27 rooms are already reserved at $995 per night and the remaining 6 rooms will go for $1299 per night. It will be mad chaos without a doubt.

We just stayed at the Relais Trevi 95 Boutique Hotel for the 2nd time in 3 years. Literally 2 blocks from Trevi Fountain. Highly Recommend.

Rome: Guided Tour of the Colosseum Underground By Get Your Guide is who we used 2 weeks ago. They were fantastic, we were the first tour at 8:45 and visited the underground first, then the rest of the Colosseum. We spent approx 90 minutes at the Colisseum. We then went to Palatine Hill, where we walked around and took in some stupendous views of the Roman Forum with the Colosseum in the background. I would definitely recommend this tour. Hope this helps.

Yes there are plenty of blenders onboard. Aleksandr, the Patio Bartender on our cruise two weeks ago on the Sojourn even created his own concoction, Aleksandr's Boozy Chocolate Supreme Milkshake. By the end of the 10 days, we had dozens of people ordering them.

We just received one two weeks ago in the Mediteranean

The ship was sold out, so around 450 passengers. There was no signs of Covid anywhere, Thank God!

The Herald stated the MDR was open for one hour for Breakfast and one hour for lunch on our only Sea Day. Cannot confirm or deny this actually occured.

They have not launched Sushi at the Club and the Room Service Menu has not changed.

They have changed policy to once every 10 days. There were 2 laundramats each containing 2 washers and two dryers along with an iron and ironing board. I believe we had 39 hangars in our closet along with two bathrobes and they now have upgrade slippers since our last sailing pre covid. They only brought out the Zodiacs once for rides, but no tubing or riding the Banana Boat.

Currently sailing from Rome to Barcelona. Everything has been outstanding so far. I'll try to answer all of your questions if you have any.

Thanks everyone. Happy Cruising!!!

I've just purchased a Nikon Z50 Mirrorless Camera after using a D80 for a couple of decades. I have some experience with Paint Shop Pro but it seems everyone uses Photoshop. I'm considering Elements or Paint Shop Pro. What is everyones opinion and do you like a different program from the two I mentioned. Thanks in Advance--Jeff

Thank you for your insight. That is exactly my concern, all of the time will be taken up by traveling, either by ferry, bus, or train.

I've looked on the Cruise Critic Ports of Call and haven't been able to find any information. Thanks in advance.

I am happy to help out anyone needing a Seabourn referral for $250 on board credit. We are sailing on the Sojourn Sept 4, 2023. All I need is your name and booking number. Please email me at deb222jeff at yahoo dot com and I will submit your request. Thanks--Jeff
