Had the filet mignon first night, it was excellent, blu cheese souffle also good. Just did the show which was music from the 40s on. Patti is the cruise director, we had her on the Silhouette in Dec., very personable and she sang a couple of songs in the show. Brent Nixon was funny, had to figure out at first if he was nuts or something. You'll understand if you meet him

 

Room is 1529, very quiet and yes, we did not get chocolates. No biggie. Not much else to write but we will have a busy day today.

 

Forgot one thing, Baileys and Jack Daniels are on the Classic Package....

Appreciate your posts and glad that you are enjoying "our" Solstice. Keep up the good sharing and happy info. Getting ready for the first big day with college football. Fall is always exciting and interesting.

 

THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio

Hi Don,

Hope you both have a wonderful cruise. Looking forward to reading more.

Love Brent Nixon! He's very approachable, and actually came on our whale watch with Captain Larry and coached us on how to get good pictures of the whales. And he gave us a CD for my nephew to use in his classes.

 

Enjoy your cruise!

Hi Don,

Although I know they have not yet implemented the new suite restaurant, I'd be interested to hear what the dining room staff and maitre 'd have to say about it and the possible menu.

 

Thanks!

We are also on Solstice - in rainy Ketchikan! But a day on a cruise ship in the rain beats a day on land any day :)
