Nice pic's! We will be boarding the Regal on your return. Looking forward to all of your posts. Having a hard time packing for cooler weather when it is so warm here. Will keep my eye on weather reports as we get closer.

We are in aft balcony cabin D731, so we will take some extra pics for you and post them tomorrow when we get to port

 

Today we had a fantastic meet n mingle in Club 6. Almost Every officer attended, please we had a sample show from the magician! Awesome! Right afterwards we enjoyed s cabin crawl. Most of all though meeting everyone was the best! We had a great turn out!

 

Thanks! I'm especially interested in pix of the balcony. Also let me know if you have the dreaded soot problem.

Thanks for the post...have been looking at that and hoping it updates in our favor. Don't mind the cold as it has been so hot this summer but hoping for little rain.

We disembarked on Saturday from the 26 day trans. We got the same pics as you of NY harbor that very morning from our aft cabin. Folks....absolutely NO soot the entire way.....we rebooked our trip next year on the Royal to aft....one of very few options for a decent balcony on these new ships.

It is a stunning day in Halifax! I dont take for granted being by the sea fir days; love me a ship with outside dining!

 

We ate at Sabatini's and with good intentions *tried to remember* to take pics of each course. Haha we just dug in. Here are some pics.

 

Today we plan on visiting the Maritime Museum (and do some shopping ;))

 

Tried uploading to my photo bucket account snd it is not working so i will try attaching photos instead.

 

Hubby said the white bean and black mussel soup was awesome!

Thanks for the photos, keep them coming if you have time. Were booked in an Aft balcony in Jan on the Royal so we too are worried now about the soot problem. Were thinking about changing our cabin because we spend a lot of time on our balcony. We should have read the reviews before we booked.:confused: Enjoy your cruise!

Day 3 and no soot at all. Was just out there barefoot too!!!

[Maraprince]

We are doing the 10/17 sailing which has only one sea day on day 2. My question: when is the second elegant night held...guessing after Boston?

 

Thanks.

Hi Laura,

Was the ships time on the same time as Halifax? It sounds like an amazing time you are having and I can't wait to read more.

Yes we were on Halifax time.

 

Second formal night is Thursday.

 

We had the best weather in halifax! Bright sunny and warm. -- around 70

 

We choose to walk along the harborfront on the way to the Maritime Museum. Lots of crew sitting near larger complexes for wifi. There are many spots to stop for pics and food. Oh and two HAL ships were in port with us: Maasdam and Eurodam. Made the museum a tad crowded. Still worth a visit for the permanent Titanic exhibit. Cost under $10. Also the chandlery (port store) depicting what seafarers would need to return to sea.

 

Had to make a stop at Nova Scotia Crystal. You can watch the glass bowers at work. Final visit was to the farmers market. Oh and the vendors at the port facility are definitely worth a look.

 

Uploading pics from the ships internet is spotty. I will try!

 

Also i have searched high and low and the only berries i can find on board are covered in choco! On a low carb diet berries are a mainstay. However the choices in horizon court and bistro are incomparable. Not exaggerating. at all. .

Me too. I like uploading to photobucket for the big pics, but it really depends on internet access/upload speed
