Good afternoon Radio,

Enjoy those next few days a sea left. Celebrity Silhouette is such an amazing ship. We are thinking of trying it next year when it leaves out of Ft. Lauradale, this is our favorite port.

 

Your guest response from "Megr1125" made our day yesterday. She made us laugh so hard with her post. She posted a picture at a dinner table on the ship with peoples faces that were radios. So cleaver of her, we just loved that picture. Thanks "Megr1125" that was great!!

 

Enjoy the rest of your day!!

Hello everyone. . . A beautiful warm day with calm seas is a nice way to spend a day at sea. It seems that I might have slept through the Captains Club Celebration (Ooops) but I was able to make it to the Cooking Competition, and the Silhouette Series of Poker (with Silhouette Officers) in Casino Royale.

 

 

The pools have been busy all day, and it appears that all of the Alcoves on Deck 15 are filled. . .Today is first day I have seen a packed house at the Lawn Club Grill. The Porch was busy too, and I was able to have a nice lunch there earlier today.

 

I have read several questions about the TV programming on Celebrity Ships, the discussions were full of. . “I think it had this channel” or “I don’t think there are any Live channels” Well, the Actual Channel Line up is below. . . It is very similar to RCI Ships (with the exception of CNN and CNN Intl) One of the nice things is a Video on Demand (Free) Any movie that will be playing this week on Channel 13 can be ordered at any time. . .with fast forward, rewind, and pause options.

Radio,

 

Don't miss the great Brunch that they have. I can't remember when it was but it should be tomorow or Monday. I'm sure our waiters announced it at dinner but it was a night that we ate at a specialty restaurant and I didn't notice it in the activity paper that they leave in your cabin. We got up and went to a late breakfast and then found out about the Brunch. We walked thru (it was in the MDR) just to see what they had and it was fabulous!!! Unfortunatly, we had just eaten our breakfast in the buffet so we had nothing......:( Oh well, I'll know better next time!!! LOL

 

Enjoy your next few sea days!!!!

As per this website: http://www.beyondships.com/Celebrity-Silhouette-Tour-6.html there is a satellite Cafe Al Bacio in the Oceanview Cafe.

 

A satellite version of Cafe Al Bacio, Il Bacio Secundo, has been added to the

Oceanview Cafe (right).

 

Maybe you can find out if this is true in the morning and find out if they are open earlier than 7:00 AM.

 

By the way - enjoying the pictures, I'll be sailing the Silhouette on Tuesday.

 

I discovered this by accident on our cruise on the Silhouette last November. They open pretty early; I think it was around 7 am. Every morning I'd head up there, order one mimosa and one bloody casear, then head over to fill up my travel mugs with coffee. By the time I finished, my drinks were ready, I put the mugs under my arms, grabbed the drinks and headed back to the cabin. The Barista got a kick out of my routine.;)

Good Morning and Happy Easter. . . Welcome to Day 11 of “LIVE” from Celebrity Silhouette.

I had a great dinner last night in the Grand Cuvee’ Restaurant. It was formal night, and my waiter suggested I should order Lobster. . .Who would have thought? It was very big, and I don’t remember being served Caribbean Lobster, but that might just be a Celebrity thing. It was definitely a “Jumbo” Lobster, and it was very good.

I couldn’t really decide on a dessert . . . It was between 2 choices, and the waiter insisted that he would bring both desserts. . .Well OK. . . If you insist. . .

 

The production show “Velocity” was spectacular. . .The aerial acrobatics were on point, and the dancers were very talented. The Silhouette Theater was standing room only, and I am sure that the 10:30PM show might nit have been as crowded.

 

I really want to do a few of the Celebrity Life Activities today, as Captain Kafetzis will be hosting “Secrets of Navigation”. . . There is also a Healthy cooking demo called “Cook This, Not That” that will be held at Celebrity Central. I also want to stay up to see Magician Andy James, who will be entertaining all passengers tonight in Silhouette Theater.

 

 

The sun is up again very strong, but it is easy to tell that we are heading north. It becomes a little cooler each day. . .The winds seem to be much stronger than it was when we headed south.

 

Celebrity will be providing passengers with an Easter Mass directly from Rome. This will be broadcast “Live” at 1:30 in Celebrity Central. There will also be a Catholic Mass at 9AM in the main theater, and a Interdenominational Easter service in the Sky Lounge at 9AM.

 

Here are a few pics form last night and this morning.

 

Thanks for tuning in. . .

Yes, I have 100's of pics from all over the ship. . .including the Spa, Fitness area, and all Restaurants. . . I will try to post them soon. I will definitely post them when I get home to a faster Internet connection. . .

 

Sunday the forecast is for sun and 64F. He suggested it would rain tomorrow, though.
