2 nights in Solstice, must????

Have a great cruise, Gut.

Have a great cruise, Gut.

Will keep an eye out for you & Mrs Gut during our next 1.75 days on board!

Hope it all goes well enough for you to consider more Cruises in the future!

Gae from Coffs Harbour - waiting on the Virgin plane to arrive then whisk me off to the “Big Smoke”!

Celebrity is too mean to install a bridgecam on their Solstice, otherwise we could see Mr and Mrs Gut sunbaking on the 'lawn' up top, or perhaps watching the 'glass blowing.' :')

Off Nelsons Bay at the moment I do believe. Nearly time for a U turn to head back south into Sydney.

Are they on board already? After only 153 posts!

Hope the weather is better than Queensland's current weather.

Indeed, a big build up to this cruise.:confused:

Pretty much spot on Uncle Les just past the Bay the6 turned.

Just home.

A shor5 review will follow in the near future

There are quite a few complaints on FB about the service. People saying they won’t cruise Celebrity again. You can’t really get a good overview of a cruise line from a 2 night sampler.

I think there were reasons for the service issues and agree abt samplers not being representative of a “real cruise “

Ironic that that was the cause of Celebrity discontinuing these a couple of years back.

And now they put them back and the same thing happens. Lesson learnt...?

Maybe they need to limit them to people who have cruised before :evilsmile::confused:

I wonder if not having drinks packages on the samplers would be of any benefit.

Of course, for new cruisers there may be little awareness of the mounting charges on their accounts if it were by the drink.

The same thought did cross my mind, Princess don’t offer them on cruises under, I think it is, a week.

No but a bit of the Kathmanpoos.:eek:

Sounds exotic.:') It is the altitude sickness that does that to one.

Not sure, Kathmandu is only 1,400 m, we went up to around 2,500 m but I must have picked up something, no vomits, just an upset stomach and a bit of the squirts for a day or so. The Imodium worked wonders.

Our son spent time in Nepal working at an orphanage he loved the area.

People are lovely and the mountains are beautiful but the place is a real mess, especially since the earthquake in 2015.

Having been looking for your review of your cruise, GUT2407.

So far, there is only one review in October for the Solstice!
