Rare Norwaylady Posted June 8, 2023 Author #227 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Tonight we did follow our sail out from Kotor on sunset bar, deck 10. So we didn’t attend the production show we saw last week. For dinner we had chop chop salad, escargot. Main course, the gnocchi and salmon. Dessert was apple pie and ice cream. The Queen tried the cannoli dessert, but the biscuit layer was very overcooked. So it went out the back door😝 After dinner it’s was bedtime 🥱 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the reminder, I was just about to Google which Celebrity ship she was in a previous life. We went to Hawaii on her in 2013 and then booked her last voyage from Dubai via the Suez Canal to Europe for her refit, for Pondant.That was in 2015 and should have been the celebration for our 50th Wedding Anniversary. Unfortunately, that voyage was cancelled and she was re scheduled to Asia 😱before Mariella Explorer bought her.

Rare Norwaylady Posted June 8, 2023 Author #231 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Today’s plan is Dubrovnik on our own. We have booked shuttle ticket to old town. It’s 15$ pr person via the ship. Usually Mr & me would have walked in. It’s only 3,3km flat walking. A great opportunity to have a view of town and the area🤩 So on arrival Dubrovnik you have taxis waiting on the pier. It’s fixed price from port to the old town. 18€ pr way/car. So if you are more than 2. A taxi is cheaper to use. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted June 8, 2023 #232 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Off Topic Dont know if you follow Tennis, but we are very impressed with performance of Casper Ruud (Norway) at the French Open, ongoing....Very good player and seems a gentleman. There is an interesting article in the Summer USGA magazine..seems he fancies golf too! Enjoy your day..and hope Mr is doing better! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Norwaylady Posted June 8, 2023 Author #233 Share Posted June 8, 2023 The bus take you in to Old Town/Pile gate. The Tourist Office Is located at the drop-off point. We walked into the old town from Pile Gate. We walked thru the city centre to gate 51/13 on the map. It’s a gate out to the old port/pier. We jumped on a 45.min sightseeing glass bottom boat. It takes you around the old town from the ocean and to Lokrum island for fish viewing and the caves in the mountain. Great way to see the city walls and crystal clear ocean. After our boat adventure, I was itching to get up on the city walls😅💪🏻 I parked the Queen for coffee and off i walked🙌🏻 You need a ticket for the wall. Okey🤓 Hold on your hat and wallet😱😳💸💸💸 3,5€😅 NO 🫣 35€ pr person to walk the walls🫡🫨😬 So I paid, said to myself, this is your souvenir🤭 You have a beautiful view over the city on the walled walkway. It’s stairs up and down. Downhill and uneven ground. So I walked fast up and down, visited towers and took pictures. A full round took me 1h. So a decent 💪🏻workout 🏋️♀️ I would say for average Joe, minimum 2h. It’s stairs up and down, and steeper hillside in one part. IMG_7908.mov The temperature is high and on hot Sunny day’s, you need minimum a 🧢 cap and water bottle. After the walk, I went on a search for the Queen🤓 She had walked onward to see more of the city. So I found her on the market space😌 We did some shopping of souvenirs to give away to my niese on 4year and Mr🥰 After some shopping, we decided to sit down to have a coffee and ice cream😋 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chemmo Posted June 8, 2023 #234 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Lovely memories from looking at your pictures. When we visited we stopped by the little boats for a drink and we shared some fresh shrimps…Never seen so many cats appearing from nowhere! I wish I had taken a picture! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame although I would rather have my 50th anniversary and the cruise cancelled than the other way round! Century was our first Celebrity cruise back in 1996.

Rare Norwaylady Posted June 8, 2023 Author #236 Share Posted June 8, 2023 The Queen was finished for today’s walking tour. So I dropped her off on the shuttle back to the ship. And I continued to the fortress. It’s upstairs outside the city centre. Number 4. You need to walk upstairs to the entrance and it’s more steps inside. You get a lovely view over the walled city and they have some of the original canons. The ticket is the same as the walled walkway. So keep your ticket 🎫 Dubrovnik is a beautiful city. Just be prepared for lots of stairs, uneven walking and slippery stones on the wall walking. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChicagoSSC Posted June 8, 2023 #242 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Loving this review. Thank you so much for sharing! It will be especially helpful to my family when cruise from Athens to Ravenna on the Infinity in August. One quick question: If you happen to be by the Photo Shop, could you see if they sell the GoPro 11? We are thinking of using our OBC on a new GoPr (if they're being sold) and want to make sure we bring batteries and memory cards that work with it if they do. No worries if you're not in that area! Thanks again for the great reviews! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Norwaylady Posted June 8, 2023 Author #243 Share Posted June 8, 2023 After getting back onboard and locating the Queen, we decided that tomorrow it’s time for a new adventure. So we picked a tour for the Queen❤️ So we will go on a adventure 08.30 tomorrow😎 After running some more stairs on the ship and have the first umbrella 🍹 drink on this journey, it was time for dressing up to evening chic💃🏻 Tonight’s show is Philippa Healey and the orchestra. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Norwaylady Posted June 9, 2023 Author #248 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Philippa Healey did a excellent show🤩 It’s west end/opera/piano. Tonight it was a pop-up from the acrobatic team in grand foyer. IMG_7977.mov A short, but good program🤩 (Same they did on the captain’s club event) Today was lobster 🦞 night. We had the salmon roulette, lobster and duck🙃 all tasted good and plenty of food in the duck 🦆 For the dessert, we had the usual espresso macchiato and ice cream😜 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
