TRIP JOURNAL: Nicole721 Get[s]away to the Baltics

[ROCruiser]

Thanks for sharing your review on the Getaway. Awesome photos! Brought back lots of memories on the Getaway (transatlantic May 2017) and the Baltics (2008 Carnival Spendor). Sounded like they made some improvements as far as embarking and debarking at the ports.

 

Happy cruising!

Thanks for taking the time to write this awesome review. It is really helpful for planning our days on our upcoming (August) RCCL Baltic cruise -- we stop in almost the same ports.

 

Also, you really helped me dodge a bullet. I was packing more summer clothes for this cruise because weather dot com says the temps in the ports will be mostly in the 70's. I hadn't really thought about Sea Days, and how those days would be colder. A picture is worth a thousand words--- when I see your fellow passengers on ship shopping for souvenirs in heavy fleece & down puffy vests--- I realized I need to MODIFY my packing to add a some cold weather things. haha

 

Thanks again!

I took this cruise in May & one day it was 80 in St. Petersburg with next being 58. I’d definitely recommend layers. I ended up regretting not having more short sleeve stuff but sea days were quite cold.
