  1. Sea Dog I forgot to mention I had a kraken pina colada in your honor a couple of hours ago , silly bartender asked if I want kraken in or on top of my drink, of course I said both . Nice seeing beyond again.
  2. I am currently on the summit having a great time on a 70’s music cruise , staff has been great , have enjoyed all three specialty restaurants and our royal suite isn’t bad either 😁
  3. My wife knows all these musicians, I grew up in the 60’s , loads of these guys are in suite lounge daily and I don’t know who most are except for the big names and the ones we have seen in the past . Shelagh took a couple of photos today, had a great time talking to one of the barmaids in suite lounge this morning a very charming girl from Mexico City , service there is outstanding.
  4. We are in curaçao parked next to Beyond, this will be my first time in over 70 cruises that I stayed on board for the entire time. Peter Asher (half of Peter and Gordon and a big time producer ) was in the suite lounge yesterday and was in suite restaurant this morning, he recently received a trustee award at the Grammys. Looking forward to Dave Masons concert tonight , then another dinner at Le Petit Chef , had a nice dinner at Tuscan last night.
  5. As I said I was charged in Le Petit Chef but went to concierge and they removed the fee , corkage should not be charged if you have a drink package.thanks to Stu UK for showing us celebrity doc. lots of Decoy in Luminae last night they just brought us a new bottle and left it on the table.
  6. We are currently on summit on a music charter, their retreat lounge is much smaller than yacht club and they no longer have any live music, but it’s never crowded and staff is fabulous. Normally when getting a glass of champagne they give you a California sparkling wine , yesterday we got Mumms, we are looking forward to our return to a MSc yacht club after thanksgiving on seaside.
  7. We are currently on a 70’s music cruise and next week it’s a 60’s music cruise, talking with fellow passengers on how many of these artists have passed.
  8. Ok I am now officially old returning to our suite at 10pm , did see a show my wife loved , ambrosia, with lead singer from player , also John Ford Coley and lead singer from Looking Glass, loved the song Brandy.
  9. I need to talk to my concierge again , since we have the premium package we should not have been charged.
  10. I will definitely watch that special, so many of the artists that are on these cruises signed with his A&M company and everyone said he was great to work for. At one of his concerts he talked briefly on how tragic Karen Carpenters life was. I liked his one comment when playing a hundred year old theatre in Dallas, he said it was nice to play somewhere older than he was.
  11. Some people were lined up 2 hours early to get best seats for foreigner , they were ten deep by the stage we like the first row balcony so nobody can block our view.
  12. Same ship Celebrity Summit almost same date March 15, 2025 , you may see some of our artists walking around, I am sure some will leave the ship to make room for some others arriving. Happy St Patrick’s Day everyone
  13. 259 days to MSc yacht club on seaside 363 to Rock and romance charter on summer in royal suite (our 7th )
  14. Here are a couple of pictures of Pablo Cruise from yesterday, there concert was fabulous , we arrive in Aruba in a few minutes my knee is bothering me so I will stay on the ship wife has appointment to get her hair done and she most likely will walk around for a while. Tonight we see Ambrosia. We booked same suite for next year, some of guests next year is Kansas, the Guess Who, John Lodge and Mellisa Manchester.
  15. Definitely fun running into Gino in the elevator, in past years I was in elevator with Steven Bishop who was strange , my favorite elevator person was BJ Thomas who shook everyone’s hand and was willing to take selfie with anyone who wanted to. Going back to Gino he is a couple of pictures including part of me with Gino. tonight’s concert with Don McLean was fabulous , each headliner does two concerts since theater can fit half of the passengers, so you either do a early concert and late dinner or late concert and early dinner, we always do a early concert . Some was not impressed with yesterday Don McLean and he didn’t sing “castles in the air” , after singing Vincent he said I didn’t play this yesterday then did that song . Finished with about a 15 minute version of American Pie , audience went nuts and he came repeating some of the choruses. g
  16. I now will make Seadog jealous, we want to an interview with Gino Vannelli and Pablo Cruise . On the way up to the interview Gino got on same elevator as we were on , told him how much we enjoyed his interview a few years ago about Herb Albert and said my what’s his cd in her purse . During interview he repeated Herb Albert story and added that Stevie Wonder asked him to open for him, then said someone had cancelled and there was a opening, host called him and no other white guy had ever appeared, host then told him we will consider you off white . Will add pictures later . Tonight we will listen to Don McLean.
  17. We do get the points in one or two more of our royal suites we will be elite plus . We were Diamond on rccl on our first celebrity cruise a dozen years ago so we that made us elite , but you get no points , but since all our cruises on Celebrity were suites and half those were in large suites we are almost elite plus.
  18. We brought a bottle from home , in past few years we were not charged any corkage. Wall the single malts like Macallen Glenlivet etc do not have an age listed , home they only sell 12 year olds . We received two liters of liquor because of our royal suite picked Hennessy cognac and Glenlivet.
  19. Pictures from yesterdays Pablo Cruise who was in suite lounge this morning we also signed up for same Royal suite for next years Rock and Romance
  20. Uber rates change depending on time of day sometimes, we sometimes check Uber and Lyft and sometimes one is way cheaper, I love we can get something with lots of legroom since I am 6’4” with a bad knee .
  21. Very nice day yesterday had a few people over for drinks and snacks, butler brought us a plate of shrimp , fruit and cold cuts (should have taken a picture) last night main show was Foreigner , but afternoon show was Pablo Cruise who was great they played a hour and 20 minutes. They are playing again this afternoon with Gino Vannelli unfortunately it’s in a smaller theater so it will be hard to get seats. Le Petit Chef was great as normal will do it at least one more time. Will post some pictures later. Only negative has been the casino 😢😢.
  22. I know some have posted a problem or extra cost for decoy, we are currently on Summit and have had a couple of glasses of decoy in Luminae and in retreat no charge . I was surprised that they did charge me 25 and tip for corkage in Le Petit Chef, we do have drink package and this is the first time in several years that we were charged, will discuss this with concierge later.
