  1. We've been looking into the Harrison's Cave excursion run by Beautiful Barbados Tours & Excursions and coordinated by Viator. The site reviews are excellent with a couple of exceptions, but I'm always a little skeptical of those. Anyone have any experience with this particular outfit?
  2. Looks like the reservation link did work on the website. Can't verify the MDR has us seated together. I guess we'll find that out onboard.
  3. Supposedly that can be done on the website. It appeared to work but there was no visible impact. Might have to be done with the app instead.
  4. We haven't been on Silhouette for a while and we were wondering how seating in the MDR is being handled. Tables used to be assigned for the entire cruise. Is that still the case? We'll be traveling with other family members under separate bookings. Can they be easily coordinated? Thanks.
  5. Were they offered a refund or just FCC for this one? Just FCC from the stories I've seen.
  6. Stay with the cruise or take FCC. Already spent how much time and money preparing and getting to port. No compensation for that. The FCC may not cover the future cruise so it's not much of a choice. Personally, I wouldn't mind the NE - Canada itinerary, but can't convince DW. Darn Steelers are breaking my heart this year.
  7. Every cruise contract I've ever seen allows the line to make pretty much any change they deem necessary with pretty much no recourse for the passenger.
  8. Our granddaughter will be with us on Silhouette in April. She loves sushi. DW and I have never had it. I have promised to take GD to Sushi on Five for lunch. Any suggestions for a 100% sushi newbie?
  9. Now you approach the end of your trip. Always a little bittersweet. But hey! Now you get to plan for the next one! 😀 And thanks again for doing this great thread. It really heled us in planning for out 2025 Circle Caribbean.
  10. Willemstad has always ranked #1 in cleanliness of all the port towns we've visited. Looks like it still. Don't remember 5 O'Clock Somewhere Bar, but the menu looks good to give it a try on the way back to the ship. Our Circle Caribbean on Majestic isn't until 2025. It has enough new stops for us that your pics and comments were a great help. Gracias.
  11. Please let us know where you lunch in Curacao. DW was saying just the other day that she wants to find a new spot this trip.
  12. I'm not sure why we started getting our casino offers. We'd only sailed on Princess 3 times when they started. We have 2 future cruises booked on Majestic and Sun that only cost taxes and port fees plus a few hundred $$ to bump up from a deluxe balcony to a minisuite on Majestic. It'll keep using cruising into retirement. That is, if I ever do retire.
  13. That peach and blueberry cobbler looks fantastic. As I sit here with my breakfast of plain yogurt and blueberries. Working on my A1C. 😔 What is left? Curacao (a favorite of ours) and Aruba? Can't wait for the comments on those. Enjoy.
  14. Looking forward to comments on Curacao and Aruba. We'll be returning there in Feb, 2025, and will probably just stay around the port areas. Can't plan too early.
  15. Where do you get the tokens? Or does it work off your medallion?
  16. If courtesy had anything to do with lounger possession there would be no need for the whole process. We usually just use the pools when we're back early on a port day and they aren't crowded. I just raised the question out of curiosity, in case anyone had experienced it.
  17. I hate the whole reserved lounger thing, but what happens if you are actually in the pool when they remove your towel?
  18. DOH! Would have known had I caught up with the thread before asking. 🙃
  19. Was there a cover charge for The Salty Dog? The little voice in the back of my head keeps saying there is. But it lies a lot.
  20. It strikes us as a little odd, as well.
  21. I'll have to bring my Salty Dog tee and hat just for the occasion.
