Lastdance Posted April 26, 2023 Author #26 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Even though Captain Kate is a passenger onboard, in an IV cabin, she is still included for some meet and greets. I did get a photo of her and yours truly, but just not posting it. Yes, she is very, very nice; her and Captain D get along fabulously too! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lastdance Posted April 26, 2023 Author #27 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) Just a little more art from around the ship; the third one is an interesting closet...does it look like yours? Oh well, I really wish that more would post either post early cruise photos, as I think those would be interesting to see, but obviously, no one is interested, especially with Jim_lain’s review going “live" and all of his information! That’s okay...I love Jim_lain too! **** Beyond has gone a step Beyond Edited April 26, 2023 by Lastdance 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lastdance Posted April 26, 2023 Author #29 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) Tonight we have Fine Cut, so that will be interesting especially since there are many different reviews based on food/experiences. Actually, they are trying to find the right cut of meat to make Chateaubriand for two, but no promises that it is onboard. That is fine, as we have so many other choices. Day 12 is Eden! Lunch today had a Caribbean theme. personally, the food was very good, but the desserts were lacking in flavor except for the bread pudding: it was as delicious as ever! There are just not as many choices, but quality overall is very good, IMHO. As far as our weather, it is perfect...sunny skies and 70!😀 Yes, my review is very abstract random, but I’m on vacation, so that is my top priority. I am happy to try and answer any questions!

Texter2 Posted April 26, 2023 #31 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Thank you for posting. I am enjoying following along. We are a couple of retired educators that discovered cruising about 10 years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisteria1019 Posted April 26, 2023 #32 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I love Transatlantics. I’m looking forward to sailing on the Beyond later in September. Keep posting! Enjoy every moment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lastdance Posted April 26, 2023 Author #33 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) This was from last night in Luminae. I got just a wee bit crazy and used one of the decorative pebble- like stones to zoom in, showing us at dinner...anyway, the wait staff thought it was a clever idea! My hubby’s look, on his face, says it all!🙃 Edited April 26, 2023 by Lastdance 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lastdance Posted April 26, 2023 Author #35 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) Oh my, the filet at Fine Cut was so flavorful and tender, not to mention juicy...their version of a caesar salad with caviar was wonderful, even though I do not eat caviar. Did someone mention dessert? We had a huge hot fudge sundae and strawberry cheesecake! I forgot the filet photos, as I dug in immediately! My dessert photo isn’t there...darn.🫣 Edited April 26, 2023 by Lastdance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lastdance Posted April 26, 2023 Author #36 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) Just a few special photos from our balcony; the sun went down without any gorgeous colors due to dark clouds!

novaten Posted April 26, 2023 #37 Share Posted April 26, 2023 thank you for this live review- just got off of her a few weeks ago and loved it all!! Enjoy all of it as I'm back at work teaching. Make sure you go to Eden for lunch - it's a great spot and for the shows and dinner! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lastdance Posted April 27, 2023 Author #40 Share Posted April 27, 2023 (edited) A great gym workout is even better when the ship is rocking and rolling, so quite a few were missing this morning. The treadmill was great fun until an older gentleman was trying to get on the machine next to me, exerting loud ah’s, groans and a little laugh. This is not the time to begin a program without a trainer; he finally got it going, but honestly, I didn’t want to watch him any longer than possible. Usually, I do the Stair-master at home; however, those are not part of Beyond’s equipment selection. The weather was very cloudy and chilly, but the sun did poke its head out now and then. Tomorrow’s weather shows that it may be a twin, but Azores are looking good, at least now. Captain D said that we can count on some good weather there, as far as it looks at this time. Now...time for my 100 minute spa session, from OBC...Oh, boy, Celebrity! Beyond was really swaying, so that’s why the photo looks this way. 🤣 The second photo was actually level, but the sun came out, so the shade was down. I tried to put it up, but it was down to stay. Since I try to take a few photos when walking different hallways to places, the third was at the very front of deck 12! I have to admit that it is now in my top three!

Lastdance Posted April 27, 2023 Author #41 Share Posted April 27, 2023 I want to add two more pictures that are very well done, as Beyond uses themes when doing various decks. The first one is in the stairwell, the second on deck 10! Both really get your attention, but keeping my decks straight is a little difficult without notes. If I am incorrect on anything, please do not hesitate to do a “shout out.” 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lastdance Posted April 28, 2023 Author #42 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) We are having so much great food, but honestly, way too much! Below are just a few photos...the third one is upside-down, even though the photo is correct on here! Sorry about that. 1. OVC. 2. Eden 3.

Lastdance Posted April 29, 2023 Author #44 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) So many things have been wonderful on this TA, except losing hours, but we are surviving.

Lastdance Posted April 29, 2023 Author #45 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Just in case anyone is interested in the booking promo...a couple who booked a cruise one the raffle for a future one; they were also upgraded to a sky suite for the rest of the cruise! Lucky them! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lastdance Posted April 29, 2023 Author #46 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) Our weather has not been the best, as it has been very cloudy with spotty sunshine. We arrive in Azores tomorrow morning; so far a whaling excursion has been canceled. However, just being on this beautiful ship is exceptional by itself. Our butler left some treats and my lunch at the OVC was very good, as it was a Greek theme... Edited April 29, 2023 by Lastdance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted April 29, 2023 #47 Share Posted April 29, 2023 How was the 100 min spa session? I tried the Kerstase hair salon on BEYOND...did a great de frizz..but was pricey for my budget. The spa was lovely! I may try a combo next time..usually I just books a massage at outset of a cruise and a facial towards the end,... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lastdance Posted April 30, 2023 Author #49 Share Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) Well, no Azores this morning. Unfortunately, the weather was too bad to dock, so now we will make our way to Cartagena…we have been to Azores three times now, but the third time wasn’t the charm! The captain said our ship was just too big to dock in this weather! We will have more time in Cartagena, our next port. I really look forward to some nice weather and visiting for my second time!

Lastdance Posted April 30, 2023 Author #50 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Well, this is all we can do…I will say that we have a lovely group of people onboard…very polite, funny and making this a great voyage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
