deladaff Posted January 26, 2015 #276 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hi Radio, We are going onboard just after you get off next week. So far everything looks terrific. I do have a question, though, that I hope you or someone who has already sailed QOS can answer. Our group of three couples (very lively 60+ year olds) love to dance. Are there places on board that stay open late (disco, etc) for us to move and groove? Thanks bunches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
138east Posted January 26, 2015 #277 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I took this image under sunny skies while on the Cabin Crawl . That looks like the aft view hanging off a solo balcony on deck 6! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
counsdr Posted January 26, 2015 #278 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Handicap access to the pool. Recent rule & law for all pools. Radio... Great video of sail away! Ahhhh, thank you! I thought it looked a bit different, but I wasn't sure in light of all the recent near drownings in the children's area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgeny Posted January 26, 2015 #284 Share Posted January 26, 2015 On that note, I had posted a thread when Quantum sailed out on Sunday, November 16th on the 2nd such journey up the Hudson. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2128012 Mdflyer, Indeed that is where I saw and took note, your post now that mind is refreshed. I didn't know they had that much leeway to make a change like that in NY harbor, take her for a spin up river to see the sights :) Wonder if they would mind bringing her up river to Bear Mountain Bridge area so I can wave hello :) George in NY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgeny Posted January 26, 2015 #285 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Thanks George. . .I was told our trip to the statue was due to us missing the first port, so we had plenty of time to delay for an hour. The passengers loved seeing the Statue of Liberty. I liked it too. . . Radio ;);) . Thanks Radio, surprised they could do that with all the harbor traffic in NY but pretty kewl!

cruiselife4me Posted January 26, 2015 #286 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) For those that are coming on Radio's live to complain about dynamic dining, as others have stated there are other threads to voice your displeasure. Please don't hijack his thread to issue your complaints... This is clearly stated on the Cruise Critic forum rules to not do this. Sent from my LG G Pad using Tapatalk THANKS Bugsy!!! I dislike that greatly when it happens. Radio - you're doing great! Edited January 26, 2015 by silver_cloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinsforme Posted January 26, 2015 #290 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I'm really enjoying your updates and I'm looking forward to being on board for the Feb 20th sailing. Quick question...do you know what capacity this sailing is at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When watching the port webcam every step has to be reported and clearance is given. It is not easy to coordinate and the fact that the Captain did this for the passengers on this sailing along with all involved should be greatly appreciated. I have no idea if the port even might charge a fee for this considering all that is involved. I guess it could be included in the fees already paid to the port. It was truly a nice gesture considering the information of the missed port had just been given to the passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Radio Posted January 26, 2015 Author #293 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I guess because everyone has Free Wi-Fi this trip that the internet cnnection has been a little hit or miss. It is very fast in the morning, but very slow in the afternoon and evening. I'll take the good with the bad. . . Here is a quick video with the Captain. Radio ;);) [YOUTUBE]EhJkShImsEY[/YOUTUBE] .

Rare Radio Posted January 26, 2015 Author #294 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) Hello everyone. . . Today was another lazy day for me as it was a sea day. I figured I would rest up for tomorrow. St. Thomas always is a fun day, and I always find something nice to do. Tomorrow this involves a beach, some beautiful water, and I guess maybe a beverage or two. (maybe some iced coffee) The weather forecast is for sunny skies and warm temperatures (85f) We will be arriving to the pier early (7AM) and will stay until 5:30PM. That gives me a few hours to have fun and stay warm. I have a couple places in mind to go, but will decide in the morning. We only have 250 nm to go. . . Here are a few pics from today. . . Thanks for all of the nice comments. Radio Good Afternoon everyone . . . A Fashion Show for the VIA Shops was featured today. . . The Robo Show was cancelled. . . But it was still nice to relax in TWO 70 Lounge I liked dining at Jamie’s It is empty now but will be packed each evening The art sculpture is so beautiful in the VIA shops area. . .

Doglady Posted January 26, 2015 #297 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hello Radio and thanks for another wonderful live review!

Luv06012012 Posted January 27, 2015 #298 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Great review so far Radio! I'm anticipating your pics of St. Thomas as I sit here awaiting the rest of our "blizzard". Brrrrrr! Thanks for mentally keeping me warm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
