Strange Bar Closings on Equinox Today in Grand Cayman
raudacruise replied to helen haywood's topic in Celebrity Cruises
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.

I too have just caught up. Thrilled that Jim and Iain are sailing again. Always a fun, informative read, full of positivity. -
Beyond LIVE Semi-Solo AQ Class 11/8/22
raudacruise replied to GenerationX's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Loving your review. The Gatsby dress was fabulous—of course. I have a map dress too. So am I in the GenX club? So sorry you lost your friend. The sea is indeed a comfort. DH was only 55 when he passed from cancer. He was given 3-6 months, was gone in 3 weeks. Everyone enjoy life to the fullest NOW. -
Happy birthday! Enjoy your wonderful cabin. What a nice present for you!

Specialty Restaurant on Solstice: Murano or Tuscan Grille
raudacruise replied to SLOTheta's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Murano! My last two meals at Tuscan were disappointing. Now I don’t bother. -
I’m so sorry you’re being neglected. I was sent to Covid Jail on Silhouette but received plenty of attention. I used to think it would be preferable to be quarantined in my original cabin. Now I’m not so sure. I travel solo and have no one to be my advocate. If Guest Relations is useless maybe try the Hotel Manager? Please recover quickly.

I spent 8 days quarantined on Silhouette’s Deck 6. The view wasn’t bad. And it was fascinating to watch “my” lifeboat lowered and taken for a spin.

Signed up for this years ago (pre-Covid) on Barbados. Sounded like fun. (I’m a foodie.) Was canceled the night before. Didn’t find a replacement excursion. Disappointed. Not sure if I want to try again sometime.

So excited to follow a another Jim_Iain adventure! Your posts totally make my day. And Summit is a sentimental favorite for me—our first X cruise in 2002. Someday I hope to do a B3B. My first B2B was foiled by covid (not kicked off the ship, just locked up.) Here’s hoping covid stays far, far away from you both.

I’ve had champagne stoppers (different brand from above) pop off more than once at home. I’m too chicken to store a bottle it’s side.
