You will be fine. You can even bring disposable razors in your carry on.

Is it worth it to see Machu Picchu? Absolutely!! However, I would find a much cheaper way to do it.

Ewwww!!!

 

I cannot even fathom why anyone would want to do a land-based workout in a bathing suit. Water aerobics, sure. But running on a treadmill or riding a stationary bike? WHY?????

 

Even if you're lifting weights, unless you're in a hard body contest (gross, but I digress), there is no reason.

 

Wear gym clothes!

Several of my running shorts could easily pass for bathing suits.

Thank you for your reply.

is the Luminae dinner menu posted outside restaurant so you can preview it ?

We like to see the menu ahead of time to decide if we want to change to a specialty restaurant for that evening based on the appeal of that evening's menu. Thanks.

We were actually able to have our butler get the menu for us. He would also get the MDR and Blu menus so we can look at those to and decide where we might want to eat.

 

The positives of Luminae were the crew and Linda, the maître ‘d.

We were on the previous cruise from Sydney and I can vouch that the crew was very good. Linda always came around to the table to see how you were doing. Everybody just went out of their way to make sure you had an enjoyable dining expericence.

there were no people from any ports in Tahiti who came aboard to do dances etc ,but there were people on the land at all of the ports at Tahiti that did a little something cultural.

I was also on this cruise and I can assure you they did have locals come on in Tahiti and perform. It was actually a very good performance and was much better in my opinion than the one in Maui.

Never understood why this bothers people. It is not like you are going to eat off the bulkhead. For the record, i do not do this.

Why is this a difficult start? Amsterdam is a relatively easy airport to transition through and being in business will give you access to the KLM lounge in which you can even take a nice shower if you so choose. I wouldn't pay the change fees to transition to a direct flight.

And the security check at FCO (Rome) are more extensive than U.S. security checks.

 

I find this a bit amusing as my wife and I had to get across the Rome airport in about 10-15 minutes and go through security and immigration. We actually made it. My wife even triggered the metal detector and the guy just waved us through.

IF, you get out the very early, 6-6:30 you will not have to dodge the others watching the sun rise or the waves:rolleyes: on the Solstice, like the Equinox, it really takes close to 10 loops to reach a mile on our Garmin.

I would be weary about using a Garmin to determine distance of a jogging track as they are notoriously inaccurate.
