Can highly recommend a nice craft beer place in the marina area (Barcelonetta) called Black Lab Brewery. I've been to Barca 4 times in the last 2 years and it's a mainstay. The beer is good, the cocktails are good and they do good food. Not a huge selection of food but burgers, ramen, gyoza. The beer is brewed on site as well. Nice outdoor area to sit.

Ha sorry! Although it is from a song - Polythene by Feeder

Safe travels to those leaving the shop today!

Same here. Plus people late to the thread can go back and read

I just want to say thank you to @island lady and everyone else posting and taking us with you on this journey. You've become part of my daily routine to check in and see what's happened and where you are 🙂

Isn't that the way of most med cruise stops? I know we had a couple when did wonder in 2022 that were basically industrial ports with no proper pier and you had to get buses out of the port area

Yes it's the freestyle machines and yes you need the souvenir glass to use them, it's not room kay based

We ended up on Wonder "by accident" really - we were moved onto her post Covid. Its given us a taste for the bigger and new ships though 😄 We're ok with a journey - it'd be a Big Holiday for us and we'd tie it in with a week in the US 🙂

I'm really hoping it does come down. We won't be booking for at least 12 months but I'll check it regularly. We enjoyed Wonder so much this summer that I'd love to try Icon.

I thought i'd go and price up something today - Try and cheer myself up a bit. Not a chance 😞 $8-10k for a JS and $10k plus for a Sky JS 😞

I didn't know this was a thing 😄 I'm hoping that we can get it in the UK via paramount plus 😄

When you board the ship it will be loaded on the app for you. You can pop to Guest Services or the Host station at any of the restaurants and ask them to check for you and move you if they can - its limited to whereever has space though 🙂 So if your first choice doesn't have space, unfortunately there isn't much they can do 🙂

Its optional now as far as I know so its up to them if they want to or not. If they want to continue then its entirely their choice (completely understandable)

Yes. We were handed them at every stop. We had some with us anyways.

Yes at Palma we had a temp check on the way off the ship at port. That's the only one on our itinerary though
