Quarantined

We end the cruise with a final Zacapa Old Fashioned on our balcony, with a view of Santorini in the background. Tomorrow we switch over to the Constellation where, alas, there does not yet seem to be a WCB according to the app?

As of 1 minute ago the Infinity had at least some Zacapa 23 left! 😎

The menu in the app lists Brugal 1888 as the rum used (which is also a really good rum), but the paper menus still lists Zacapa 23. I’ll try to see if I can spot which one they’re actually using for the cocktails!

I was so surprised! We had walked past several times in the evening without noticing the switch over to the bar!

Currently on board right now - she’s in better shape than I expected! No need to worry.

Halfway through our cruise I suddenly noticed that the app listed the World Class bar as open on deck 5. After much confusion and trying to find where it was located, as we’ve never seen a World Class bar on the M class before, we asked a member of the staff and were told that the gelato place turns into the World Class at 5 pm. Lo and behold, this was indeed true! Judging by the lack of other guests it seems that others are just as ignorant of it’s existence on board as we where up until a few hours ago. Our first sips of our first order was up to par, so I’m certain we will be visiting most coming evenings as well!

Back in January I had the unfortunate luck of catching covid on our cruise: Today we got off the Edge after a wonderful 7 night cruise from Barcelona to Rome. So, despite not having the most positive memories of the previous cruise, that did not cloud our experiences this time around. An unexpected effect of the need for quarantine cabins is that we where upgraded from our ocean view cabin on deck 3 (which was used as a quarantine area for staff) to an infinity veranda on deck 7 free of charge. A friend travelling with us was similarly upgraded from his porthole veranda on deck 6 (which was used for quarantined guests) to an infinity veranda on deck 7. All in in a very pleasant surprise!
