Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. How do I find your blog on the net? Have not been able to find it Thanks
  2. We were just on the Gudvagen-Flam Ferry round trip and it is well worth it. Yes from Flam, there are tour operators who will take you on a small boat excursion to experience the fjord from that experience. Also, you might consider renting a car from Bergen and driving to Geiranger. We did it round trip from Bergen in a day. If you wanted time to explore, there are hotels in the area
  3. We really did not miss the TV....too many interesting things to see along the way and on board events occupied our time. As for the food, I am not familiar with the term nonpescatorial so I cannot comment responsively to your question. What I can say is breakfast and lunch in the main dining room were buffet style. Dinner was served with a choice of 3 mains plus starters and desert. The mains were 1 meat, usually one fish and 1 vegan option. We found that we really enjoyed the Sami Restaurant called Aaron. Good portion size and very good. Only drawback was the menu was always the same but we developed our favorites. The entire food presentation has a very Norway feel to it. There are not as many food choices as you will find a major cruise shjip. If you need more info on food, ask and I will try to respond
  4. And we are ready to go again ourselves!
  5. I was on the first cruise after the dry dock. The crew told me that it actually was a wet dock. They got al new bedding, tvs in the cabins and they refurbished the dining rooms. We had a men's and women's sauna but no hot tub. I heard that a hot tub was removed as part of the refurbishment. The cruise stopped at some interesting smaller portts including Longyearbyen and NY Alsund. Our cabin had a phone but we we could not get it to work. TV seemed not completely ready for primetime but I think they were working on it. The crew was friendly and eager to please. We would go again
  6. I usedto check emails with your blog but they have stopped and I don't know how to get them back. I can see your blog if I sign in but no option to be sent an email link. Please advise thanks
  7. Seems that a sale of HAL might be more likely following the announcement today from Morgan Stanley cutting their target valuation of CCL in half and warning that the stock had the potential to go to 0 given their current debt loads if there is another "shock" to cruise travel
  8. Interested in the ccl stock ownership thread that was mentioned here. How do I apply?
