Rare Lois R Posted June 11, 2010 #10 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Is there a cost for the Galley Tour" ? Can my kids go (ages 13, 11, 9)? Thanks Hi:)...The Galley Tour is usually by invitation only. I cannot recall if children are included or not, although I don't remember seeing them on any that I have attended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottawapuppy Posted June 11, 2010 Author #14 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Is there a cost for the Galley Tour" ? Can my kids go (ages 13, 11, 9)? Thanks No cost. There is limited space, so they have you register on the morning of the event. I think they ran 3 groups (10am, 10:15am and 10:30am) They did not mention age limitations. I love seeing all that stainless steel in those industrial kitchens. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ottawapuppy Posted June 11, 2010 Author #15 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Hi Mike, great photos:). What inside cabin did you have? We started in 8151. There was a noisy child in the next room, so we asked to change rooms and after Grand Cayman they moved up to 9174. Both rooms were identical. Strangely, our friend Barb was in the same category of inside room (I think...) and she had two chairs instead of the little sofa. I wish I would have taken a pic of that room so people could compare. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottawapuppy Posted June 11, 2010 Author #17 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Oh...the Galley tours are different on the S class then. The tour was billed as part of their new Celebrity Life program which is being implemented on ships in the fleet. This page in the dailies talks about the program. http://schplinky.smugmug.com/Solstice-2010/Celebrity-Today-Daily/12452985_kgdmH#891774830_RWFSC-A-LB Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Those all sound great!! Thanks Mike, always love reading the wonderful details provided by you and Lee. I'm heading over to your website!! Can you provide more details on the Molecular bar; I missed it on Equinox and want to be sure to try it out on Solstice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ottawapuppy Posted June 11, 2010 Author #21 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Can you provide more details on the Molecular bar; I missed it on Equinox and want to be sure to try it out on Solstice. The Molecular Bar features hand-made exotic drinks featuring interesting unique ingredients. For example, the mojito includes a ginger liqueur I have never seen before. The "margarita" is topped with a chipotle foam to add some heat and spice to the drink. Another is topped with liquid nitrogen freezing the top of the drink and creating a spooky smoking effect. The bartender narrates as she blends the drinks. All the fruit used in the drinks is fresh and cut on the spot. As you can imagine, it takes a few minutes to make each drink, so don't go when it is busy. If you go by and there are only few people there, stop by and enjoy watching the bartender make your drinks. Questions are encouraged about the ingredients and methods.
