Or with CC or VO if you prefer one with rye whiskey - they are both on the Classic list.

I'm very appreciative of everyone's advice and insight! Not really up to a self-drive tour or public transportation anymore, but I'd kind of forgotten about Ronda and Mijas, so maybe we will do something in one of them. Again, thanks so much ! Linda

For several years, I worked for a Spanish tour operator (in the US) that handled the Costa del Sol, and I'd love to take this excursion if there's a chance we will drive along the coast and not on some highway. We've toured Malaga, so looking for something different and I wanted to see the coast and Marbella. Any thoughts?? Thanks.

Have done one eastbound TA but that was to Amsterdam and we disembarked at what I'd consider "normal" times (7:30 or so to 9am). Anyone have advice for Barcelona? Want to set up a ride to our hotel. Thanks so much. Linda

Bon voyage !! So happy to be following along again !! Linda

Wineaux007, this is amazingly exactly what I needed to know. THANK YOU. One more question - 3112 is next to a Ladies Room - any issue with that? Again, many thanks! Linda

Looking for either a photo showing which cabins these are or info from someone who knows. Someone on board told me that there are "newly" added cabins on deck 3 which have very large windows a la those in the foyer area there,, but I want to be sure which ones they are before I book one. Thanks so much for the help! Linda

Thanks, Ruth ! Can’t wait to see her. She is wonderful. Linda

We heard that Russell is back on the ship, but in the MDR. We will be looking for Horas in Blu. Great guy !

What time is your Scavi tour? We are at 11. Linda

That's us !! We are finishing the packing - haven't flown since before covid so the packing itself is something of an adventure ! We leave on Wednesday for two nights in Rome where we will hopefully be able to FINALLY do the Scavi tour at the Vatican. We are in Aqua - our third time on the Constellation (Aqua and a Sky Suite before). Love the ship. We will add our two cents as we go along. Safe travel, everyone !! Linda and Joe

I use the Libby app for our library system. Can’t beat free ! And my audio books are mostly for walking inside our condo building to escape the Florida heat. (Also, everyone should listen to at least one, if not one part of, a Harry Potter book read by Jim Dale. The narration is incredible.) Jim, thank you for your great blogs, with their amazing food and scenery pictures!! So enjoyable !!!!! Linda

Sorry to continue the hijack ….. but, while I am not normally an audiobook lover, there is something wonderful about the Brunetti series with its many and varied accents. David Colacci is fabulous.

LOVE this list !!! Thank you, GeorgiaPeach51. May I add Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs series?

I don't think that anyone can see actual cabin inventory right now. Most categories show as closed.

We have been moved too - and have the same categories, despite lower inventory on Enchantment. Price adjustments will take some time. We are b2b on Nov 6 and 13 2023 and got such a great deal for a JS and GS that I'm glad at least this part is done.

Thanks so much! That is the trade off for my husband vs staying in the cabin with the cow decor lol.

Have booked the B & J Sweet on the Independence, so appreciate your info. Do you remember if you could have breakfast in Chops with the other suite passengers? Thanks.

Love the reference

I called. I had already checked using the travel agent site and the res was still on Brilliance.

Unable to get new cabin assignments yet for our b2b Nov 6 and 13. I’d like to know sooner rather than later to figure out what we will do.

Sailing this August - 3 and 4 day cruises, b2b. Are the consecutive cruisers offered a special lunch anywhere on the ship on turnaround day? We had one a few years ago on the Brilliance, so wondered if the same. Thanks.

I agree.

Sorry - never finished the post. The Ben and Jerry “Sweet”’on the Independence and others is an inside promenade cabin with suite privileges, like access to the Suite or Concierge Lounge. I was wondering if the Chops breakfast benefit is also available to those “sweet” passengers.

Great ! Thanks !
