Best time on the Balcony?

[Ironmen]

The DW is excited about having the balcony on the upcoming cruise. What is everyone's favorite time to spend on the balcony?

I'm a morning person - so very early to watch the sunrise - brand new fresh day and things are very quiet. We run down to lido - get a bit to eat - take it back to room and enjoy!!!!:D

When ever I wake up...means room service knocked on door with some coffee and Danish to take out to the balcony for me to wake up with....also 5 to 10 minutes before pulling away from the pier to watch the pier runners.:eek:

Anytime...but I truly enjoyed early morning watching the sunrise and the evening sunsets. I actually sat out in wee hours (around 2 a.m. or so) just to hear the sounds of the ocean. I loved our balcony. This year we're doing a cove balcony.

In particular, we love enjoying room service breakfast on the balcony. But we'll be out there at various times throughout the day.

Mine would be first thing in the morning when I wake up, after dinner when it is starting to get dark and then again right before bed...soooo relaxing on your balcony before bed just listening to the ocean.

First thing in the morning.

Last thing at night.

Coming in to a port.

Leaving a port.

And all times in between, when I can.

Another vote for early mornings on a balcony. One of my favourite things about cruising.

I would suggest that the best time for you on the balcony is when the DW is excited. ;):D

I love to go out very early in the morning when light is just coming up...the best.

Coffee in the morning and glass of wine before dinner;)

When the neighbors leave their balcony.

When the neighbors leave their balcony.

Very true.Then I can smoke and not worry about bothering someone.

i loved all my time -- in the morning at sun rise -- in the evening just after dusk -- seeing the millions of flying fish skirt by -- late at night in the total darkness where you can only hear the wind and the wake --

 

we got balconies when we first cruised as we were smokers -- both SO and I quit smoking on Dec 15th of last year (today is our 5 month) but we booked a balcony for our next cruise (with the $$$ we saved from not smoking -- $600 a month is a LOT of $$$!!!)

Best time for me was at night when the moon was up, especially with an aft balcony. Seeing the moon on the ship's wake is really pretty.

And Right at that Time, is a Great Time to join the Balcony Club!! ;)

I'm excited for our first balcony. On our first cruise we had an inside cabin and we are early birds, so we would always go to the top deck and watch the sunrise, now we won't have to do that because we will have our own balcony. Also, leaving Key West we will be able to watch from the balcony and coming into Cozumel at 1PM will be awesome. I can't wait.

Late at night when the wife is asleep, I'll go out there, leave the light off and just listen and stare at the ocean.

Those are my favorites. Early morning is awesome! Although it means the end of the cruise and I'm sad, I've getting up early the morning the ship arrives back in NY. Sailing into NY harbor at sunrise is just about as fabulous as sailing out with the evening tide!

 

I also love having a drink before dinner. We do late seating so the sun is usually low and you can get some great pics as well! Very relaxing! Just don't fall asleep and miss dinner :D

My favorite time is when the kids go to bed and my husband & I can enjoy some private time in the moonlight!

I love coming back from shore and grabbing my book and sitting on the balcony waiting for the ship to leave port. I am not a reader by nature but for some reason, I love to just sit there, read a couple of pages, watch people boarding the ship, read a couple more pages, sip on some lemonade, read a few more pages, snap a couple pictures, etc.... It's one of my favorite times on the cruise!
