    Asked DH sitting next to me:

     

    - blinds - they only have to ways open or closed, no half way up

    - glass panel - stops when you get off the button, so it can be half way down too

    The blind goes as far up or down as you like if you use the control panel in the veranda. If you use the app or the panel in the room, it automatically goes all the way up or down

  2. 2 of us Elite b2b that’s plenty of minutes. We might go ashore and find a Macie D or something for a FaceTime to family if time allows.   Really must enrol for our CC meet and mingle!  That was the only good thing about MSC. The meeting was fully catered with bar snacks and cake. Otherwise it was dire but amazing itinerary.

    Believe it or not, I enjoy using my camera for cruise photography and already have many EDGE photos downloaded from various non -copyrighted  sources

     

    Wifi is  for the tablet which is used fo a few e mails home, and reading

    We enjoy not being tethered to our phones..,enhances conversation and relaxation,!

     

     

    We each have iPhones. They’ll live in the safe except for a couple of ports.

    What is the Charter group?

     

    We were originally booked on March 10 and 17. We saw that the sailing was removed from sale after about 6 weeks and it was rumoured on here that it was cancelled. Eventually we discovered that we had been bumped in favour of a charter. Later we heard she had been chartered by a medical company.

    Yes we were compensated to bring forward the trip from 10 and 17 to 3rd and 10th

    wevould just as easily have chosen these dates anyway

    Cruise Industry News has just published the following article - with great photos - about Edge's stop in Ponta Delgada.

    https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/19923-photos-celebrity-edge-makes-technical-stop-in-azores.html

    However, they did not say why she made a "technical stop" or what they did there in regard to it.  But they are some nice photos by Antonio Silva.

    I read on here or Facebook that it was a planned stop in Azores. They left France early to avoid poor weather and the stop was to check latest forecasts. Makes logical sense but whether it’s factually correct I know not.

    I have often thought the name encourages negative comments although of course criticism can also be positive. 

    I just wanted people to try to hold off negative criticism until we are able to see the finished product. Not dictating just politely requesting. If you cant hold back just go ahead!

    Hear hear. It’s all guess work so far.

    So Glad I moved our cabin to the other side-  While it might be nice going on the Magic Carpet- it clearly obstructs the view of the cabins above and below-  It also might be very noisy especially if you like to go to bed early or wake up late-  Would hate to walk out on my balcony and see a roof below- or in front of.  

    Going on? It’s not a ride or lift/elevator 

  8. Thanks for these...

    To me it still looks like cheapo motel furniture that won' t last very long..Maybe that's a good thing. Maybe I am wrong?

    Once I know the color of the bedding and accents they use , I can decide if I need to bring a throw or something to make it feel more homey for our stay.

    We spend time in our stateroom so we want it to be less sterile and more comfy feeling.
