Silver Shadow Refurbishment

All is good in the galleys, scallops in lime sauce were superb.  DW had a vegetarian dish involving mushrooms etc she enjoyed as well.

Crew is friendly, courteous and helpful

Hopefully will upload a picture of our verandah cabin below, deck 6.

Well, I've lost the ability to email photos from my phone to this Kindle so here are a couple taken using the Kindle camera itself which I find quite unwieldy. Maybe should buy a real tablet someday.  Poor pictures but hopefully still of some interest.

Our verandah

The bath

 

There is also a shower but my pic is so bad I just won't post it.

The ship and her crew are a delight.

Looks like a great gathering place!

Thanks All  for posting the photos.

Just a great upgrade to the original Arts Cafe concept.  Hope they do something similar on the Whisper after the World Cruise.  And, I can hardly wait to see how they execute the concept on the much bigger Moon coming online next summer.

 

Wonder what long time passengers will think of it being located in the middle of all of the boutiques.  It's always been pretty easy to avoid the boutiques.  Not now.  😉

My only concern is that since the Arts Cafe has become quite popular, I hope they are staffing it appropriately.  I'm not sure two Lily machines are enough. 😄

I'd love that too seeing we are on WC 2021 but is there a gap in the schedule?

Thanks to both of you for the wonderful photos.  It really has been Muse-ified hasn't it?  Where is trivia now? 

 

Enjoy it all!

[QueSeraSera]

Nice photos! Trivia is in The Bar on deck 5, a spot we have already had occasion to visit 

 

 

 

[beaujolais]

The new Panorama Lounge.

All new tables and chairs, new ceiling, new ceiling lights, bar redone, larger dance area and all.new carpets

I forgot to.mention that the pool area dinning tables and chairs are all new as well

On this cruise trivia is being held in the bar on deck 5

 

The Boutique is now basically a few rows of show cabinets which are opened at the normal shop opening times. A very small area and no intrusion at all

The carpet reminds me of the sandy floor of the sea which one may view through crystal clear water.

It's all quite beautiful.

Sure do appreciate you sharing all of your pics!  Looks like the chairs inside are holdovers from the previous decor.  The outdoor area looks lovely.

No they are all new chairs, the old chairs were all donated to various charities in Malta

Thanks for the correction.  I'm really surprised they went with the same brown color scheme on the chairs considering the room was refreshed in the Muse's grey palette.  Seems like they could have found a leather that would have matched the decor better.  Oh well, who cares, no big deal.

Thanks for taking the time to let me know the chairs inside are new.  Enjoy the rest of your voyage!

Great pictures - thanks for taking the time to do this.  Is the furniture in the Bar new?  SOme pics of the fitness center would be appreciated.  Any significant change to the Observation Lounge?

 

 

[spinnaker2]

The muse color scheme was celadon and mushroom. Blends of blue and green.

Also blue velvet chairs and with accenting colors

 

It was the same on the Wind post modification.

As with the Spirit.

 

Haven't seen the cloud since her redo

 

[DCCruiser57]

So, I wonder if SS will change the smoking policy by eliminating the area on the starboard side next to the pool area now that there is a dedicated outdoor smoking area.

The new boutique

Staff attend when open and the various cabinets are opened. Watches and jewellery are, as before,  in display cabinets

[beaujolais]

The new Cruise Consultants area, the new reception desk and the new shore concierge desk area

[beaujolais]

Bar 5 with all new furniture, bar fittings, bar stools and a new mirror picture of  "Our Leader !"

[beaujolais]

The theatre has had all the seating etc. recovered but all in the same colour as before, I also believe that all metal fittings have been renewed
