Rare mysty Posted March 26, 2019 Author #903 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Wonderful evening of Sri Lankan culture last night at the Kingsbury Hotel. Singing, dancing, drumming, fire-eating! Absolutely magical! Well done Silversea! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Singing, dancing, drumming, fire-eating! Absolutely magical! Well done Silversea! I thought it was excellent too. The numbers were down to about 170 but it was about the right length, just over an hour to reduce the cultural overload factor. I thought the drumming was amazing! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't speak for Turtle (although I did not notice any singed skin on his face later in the evening 😀). I did not attempt it myself. I do tend to avoid situations in which I may go up in flames. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mysty Posted March 26, 2019 Author #909 Share Posted March 26, 2019 This may be of interest to people concerned about the new oval topped coffee tables. Last night our butler delivered a square table top designed to fit over the oval surface to create a square dining surface. Thanks Silversea! Myster and I were not dining in the suite on this cruise because the oval top did not allow much surface area. Now we will try a meal in the suite. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember one that wasn't, but it's been years since we've been on the Whisper. And, wasn't the square top kept in your closest? At least that's where it's been on the other ships we've been on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old square tops that were kept in the closet did not fit the new tables. When we sailed in January there was no top to fit over. Now there is one. It is not square (my mistake). It is more rectangular. It does not fit in the closet. It is too high to fit under the lower bar. In our veranda 1 suite it is now stationed to the right of the veranda door leaning against the wall just under the light switches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the clarification as I didn't realize they had changed the size of the coffee table in the suites. Your picture makes it perfectly clear! I bet there was quite a stir among the crew as to where those table tops are stored. I can only imagine what it would be like in the suites should the Whisper encounter rough seas (such as next February between the Falklands and Antarctica) with those tabletops leaned up against the walls and unsecured. 😦 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a pretty picture in more ways than one! The tops may fit under the sofa but it would be an effort to get them under and an effort to get them out again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were told that the carpenter would fix some sort of latch to maintain the table top in position. It does look incredibly ugly to have the underside of a table in the corner of the cabin and reflected in the mirror to make it seem twice as big. I'm wondering if this has been fully thought through? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mysty Posted March 30, 2019 Author #922 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Today we were at anchor off Praslin, Seychelles. Myster and I did the Vallee de Mai tour. It was a beautiful walk through the home of the fabled Coco de Mer, a World Heritage Site. Then we went to the Cote D'Or Beach..... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
