Rare Keith1010 Posted April 16, 2023 #3652 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Dubrovnik four year years ago. First visit was in 2005 on-board Serenity when we sailed her for the first time on two back-back-to-back cruises totaling 24 days. Up to that point the longest cruise we had taken. Back in 2005 not many ships there and we were the only one in port. That all has changed. Keith 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was first there in 1974 and then again staying most years in the 70s. Jadrolinija was the cruise line that I first sailed on before Cunard and my favourite QE11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted April 17, 2023 #3655 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Four years ago today we were in Venice on-board Serenity. Our first time on Serenity in 2005 one of the reasons we booked the back to back itinerary was three nights in Venice between both cruises. How times changed.First time we were there was in 1997 on-board Grand Princess at the time the largest passenger ship and we docked downtown.

KenzSailing Posted April 18, 2023 #3657 Share Posted April 18, 2023 The Chez, dinner report for Saturday 4/15: Well, it was a quiet night, but our most important regular came in. Good thing too, as we were able to delight her with an appetizer of the first shad roe of the season(and probably the last as it's a short season.) Ordered her usual steak(strip this night) and a loaded baked. Satisfaction was proclaimed, so the kitchen was tranquil. Per the usual, no dessert and she left her typically generous tip. On a related note: if anyone runs into that guy named for an airport, tell him we're keeping his regular table open. But time marches on, and we had to turn Ralph Fiennes away from it the other night. Sheesh, the guy plays a cook one time and he thinks he owns the joint. Maybe I should have been a stockbroker... PS: apologies to the various managers of Keith McNally's restaurants, whose report format I am copying. Steal from the pros. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying. Keith This may be an historic day. It's rare for me to have an anniversary photo while Keith does not. This is 5 years ago today as Crystal Symphony exited the Panama Canal with the unfinished Atlantic Bridge in her wake. BTW, I would say that the empty bottle is better than a half full one while a full one still has promise: Roy 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Keith1010 Posted April 19, 2023 #3661 Share Posted April 19, 2023 There are some very special places around the world where we have enjoyed amazing sail-ins and sail-aways. Some that come to mind are Venice, Sydney, New York City, San Francisco, Rio and the list goes on. Today's photo is from one of many times we visited Rio.

Rare Keith1010 Posted April 21, 2023 #3668 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Thirteen years ago we were in Barcelona, Spain as part of World Cruise 2010. We have visited this beautiful city many times over the years and taken many tours and also walked it extensively. It is also a great place to pick up a Paddle Tennis Racquet which I have done a few times. First time we visited this city was pre-cruise on a Mediterranean cruise on board the Grand Princess in 1997. Back then we ate later but the challenge is late for Americans does not compare to when dinner is served in many of the local restaurants.
