    I think you might like the Slush Bar on the Equinox and Eclipse- I wish it was on more ships! You could always see if bartenders have the ingredients for these.

     

    On the whole, I have been less impressed with Celebrity's drink menus recently- I think they are trying to be too "hip," with lots of crazy ingredients that do not always result in a well-balanced cocktail, especially at the hands of certain bartenders.

     

    I recently too my first cruise with Princess and LOVED their bar menus and found that their frozen drinks were not overly sweet. I'm going to write down some of my favorites before my next Celebrity cruise and see if a bartender can make them for me onboard.

    I will be on the Equinox in a few weeks and will definitely be checking this out!

  2. Off the Summit on 9/3. We were in a suite and found that toiletries were not replenished during the cruise! We made do with what we got and Yeah...we could have asked for more but...seriously?

     

     

     

    We were on the same cruise and our toiletries were replenished every day. Our steward was awesome!

  3. On our last trip we purchased the transportation passes but I realized unless you are making 4 trips a day it isn't worth it. This time we bought tokens for the amount of travelling we knew we would be doing. The tokens are $4.50 per trip (as opposed to paying $5.00 if you are paying cash at the time).

     

    We took the 9:30 ferry from the Dockyard to St. George on the first day (1 token per person). To get to Tobacco Bay and Fort St. Catherines we walked from the town. It is about a 10 to 15 minute walk to Tobacco Bay and then a further 5 minutes to the fort. The roads are narrow so you need to stick to the side but it is a nice (if somewhat uphill) walk. Tobacco Bay is well sign posted and easy to find.

     

    On this day we were ready to return around 2 and did not want to wait for the 3:30 ferry so we chose to take the bus back. To get back to the dockyard from St. Gerorge you need to transfer to a 2nd bus in Hamilton, but if you get a transfer from the driver in St. George you are only using 1 token. This is a long way to return (almost 2 hours) but it is nice to see the whole island.

     

    The second day we took the ferry to Hamilton and returned the same way (1 token per trip). On the 3rd day we chose to stay close to the dockyard so no travelling required.

     

    Overall we bought 8 tokens for $36 to cover our two days of travel. If we had bought the transportation passes for 2 days I believe it would have been around $63. Hope that helps.

     

    This is what we have been talking about doing when we are there. Sounds like tokens are the way to go. Thank you so much for this information.

  4. Will be on the Summit in August 2017 to Bermuda. Will be anniversary trip for me and DH. So excited and really enjoying everyone's posts. Thanks for sharing and any tips you can give us are much appreciated. Hope you have a wonderful cruise.

  5. The first time I saw the show another answer choice for this question was "A missionary." The husband in the 50 years couple answered, "A hooker dressed as a nun in the missionary position." His wife then hit him with the clipboard and that was one of the greatest moments of the cruise.

     

    Was this last year on the Holiday? We heard the same thing, unfortunately my DH walked out just before that question.
