Emperor Norton Posted January 17, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Seabourns site finally has something up for the Legend and Spirits farewell season. Sadly currently its just functioning as a link to their special offer page. For the Pride it took you to a special page that listed all the remaining sailings as well as the special crew that would be on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chairsin Posted January 17, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Thanks--- hopefully they will post more info so that those of us on the final Legend cruise know what they have planned. As I recall when you were on the final Pride cruise you felt the ending was rather anticlimactic. I do hope as well as special crew members they have planned something to make this final small ship cruise especially memorable.i recently received a hint that Erik Anderssen will be back but I don't want to get my hopes up. Also when I saw David E. In September he indicated that he would be on the cruise not as CD but as a special guest performer. Any other crew rumors ?

Chairsin Posted January 17, 2015 #4 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Are you going to be on the Spirit or Legend final cruise? Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Norton Posted January 17, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Sadly neither. I'll be on the Legend for its last week in the Caribbean and its final TA to Barcelona then its back to the salt mines.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chairsin Posted January 17, 2015 #6 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Sorry I won't have the chance to meet you. While I hope you have wonderful final Legend cruise I do hope you leave some champagne for those of who board in Barcelona after your disembarkation.

hypercafe Posted January 18, 2015 #9 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I was looking at the last trip on the Legend in the crib 3/15. Do you think this will be OK as the ship is leaving the fleet. This would be my first Seaborn trip and I was wondering about the shows at night. Sent from my XT1032 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Norton Posted January 18, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) The cruise itself will be fine (or better specifically because the ship is leaving the fleet. For Pride they brought out the A+ Hotel Manager and crew). From the same cruise last year on the Pride I noticed that the passengers were for the most part skewing far younger in age than the 'typical' Seabourn passengers. The Restaurant wasn't open for lunch:mad: The deck parties seemed to have more attendance and spirit. I'm not really a fan of shows on ships I usually retire to the Club to chat with the bartenders/passengers and people watch.

Sent from my XT1032 using Forums mobile app If you are looking for large ship type productions then SB isnt for you. There is certainly not lots of emphasis on the line being particularly show orientated. Looking at the lines you have tried, even taking EUropa 2 into account, you may find the shows disappointing. They are good quality, but not of long duration or high scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypercafe Posted January 18, 2015 #12 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I was just wondering from a point of something to do after dinner. I think all are good down to a solo act. Sent from my XT1032 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Norton Posted January 18, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) There is always a show in the lounge after dinner (unless theres a rock the boat or similar party in which case the show is on deck). The Club always has music/dancing after dinner tho passenger participation for the dancing seems to be hit or miss.

Tillylovesseabourn Posted January 18, 2015 #14 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yes,there is always something on, but it will not be the full on production of the large cruise ships you have been on. The way of life on SB, is more relaxed than the big ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chairsin Posted January 18, 2015 #15 Share Posted January 18, 2015 And on top of that there is often a classical or flamenco guitarist playing to usually less than a half dozen passengers up in the tea lounge . On the little ships this usually our favorite post dinner venue -- it is almost a like private concert. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Luxury Posted January 18, 2015 #16 Share Posted January 18, 2015 That's the first time I have heard it called the tea lounge. It's ok to have a pet name for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chairsin Posted January 18, 2015 #18 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Must admit I call it the tea lounge because I can never remember, depending which little ship I am on, if it is the Horizon, Constellation or Midnight Sun Lounge so since it is the lounge where afternoon tea is served I have just taken to calling it the " tea " lounge.

Is the Club still the club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chairsin Posted January 19, 2015 #21 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Oh, but for some reason the Club is called the Club on all the little sisters! Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lincslady Posted January 19, 2015 #23 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Sorry to break the new but yes,on the Legend the show lounge is called the King Olav , on the Spirit the A,undue , and the Pride Magellan Sent from my iPad using Forums Glad I am not the only one who cannot remember the names - we always call the show lounge the 'theatre', and the top front lounge the 'observation lounge'. Thank goodness our generally favourite venue pre-dinner is just 'The Club'.:) (And we can remember even less after a few drinkies there). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Jet Set Posted January 19, 2015 #25 Share Posted January 19, 2015 The 'Legend's' final voyage - Captain Pedder told me he will be aboard, Simon Gillespie will be the CD. David Green will be the Guest Entertainer (back to where he started) with regard to the Entertainment - whenever there is an entertainer in the show lounge or a show of any kind there is NO music in the Club at all. The only thing open is the bar - this applies to the 'Spirit' as well. Apparently any kind of music in the club has to wait till the other show is over before they can start. We left the 'Legend' two weeks ago after another great cruise and we are expecting the final voyage to be just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
