You will love that balcony! The amount of space is incredible.

At Bayside if you have Hard Rock on the right, The Knife (Argentinian steakhouse) on the left, turn to see Vitoria Italian Restaurant. It looks like a dead end at first glance but it’s the start of a whole row of waterfront restaurants, all with outdoor seating. My favorite is the last one, Kuba Cabana. Their cubano sandwiches are the best!

I’m definitely a “real” balcony person. Lately I’ve been booking Royal Suites and the Edge class RS balconies seem quite small. If I’m paying big bucks I want a roomy balcony like on the Millennium and Solstice class ships. The Edge Villas seem nice but I’m not in the habit of buying lottery tickets…

On my recent Silhouette cruise the RS “hot tub” was a bathtub with jets. Can’t imagine using it cruising Alaska.

Thanks so much for the lovely pictures and review. I was on the same cruise January-February and also stayed at the InterContinental. Beautiful hotel but the entrance is indeed tricky. And the ramp isn’t much help. It’s steep and difficult to use. I like the idea of flying into Fort Lauderdale instead of dealing with the Miami airport. I just love Silhouette! Repeating this cruise next February and will be on the westbound TA in November 2024.

Help Picking Special Cruise 2024-2025
raudacruise replied to taylortime05's topic in Celebrity Cruises
I’m looking for new itineraries too. (Going to Alaska for the first time in June.) I like Ken the Cruiser’s Norway Fjords/ Arctic Circle cruise and it fits my schedule. But for me the Retreat “starting from” price is over $47,000! Guess I need to book early to snag something lower than an Edge Villa. It does look lovely… -
I was on the same cruise as Barwick Cruiser, on a 24 night B3B. Loved it. Booked two more Silhouette cruises and a “book later” cruise while on board.

Strange Bar Closings on Equinox Today in Grand Cayman

My first stingray excursion years ago was with X on a huge, crowded catamaran. Total mob scene. Captain Marvin and Stingray Sailing both highly recommended. Small groups. -
Goodbye Mr Chemmo but the heart will go on….
raudacruise replied to chemmo's topic in Celebrity Cruises
So very sorry for your loss. I’ll raise a glass to Mr. & Mrs. chemmo “Making it count” when I board Silhouette in a couple weeks. I’ve always enjoyed and appreciated the live reports and informative, reliable posts. May you be blessed with fair winds and following seas. -
I’ve used ReliefBands for years. I get motion sickness very easily. I can get sick just watching television and I can’t watch a computer screen scrolling. I use it for cruising (only wear it when the ship is moving), boat rides and flying. I would be miserable without it. I’ve always traveled with two bands and a bunch of batteries.The batteries last about four days for me. Just bought two of the new rechargeable ReliefBands. Sea Bands and ginger don’t help me at all. Haven’t tried a patch, can have nasty side effects. Pretty sure you’re not supposed to drink alcohol while wearing a patch. Bonine works well too. Sometimes I use both. Dramamine makes me way too drowsy. Had trouble staying awake for dinner. Dock B, hopefully your DW will recover uneventfully from her anesthesia. I had general anesthesia once and did not have any nausea.
