Just finally getting things figured out as I leave in 3 months from today - it will be here before I know it.
I thought I would share what my TA confirmed for me regarding dinning theme nights. (Not 100% sure about the show just my guess from reading trip reports) Now if I could just get things confirmed for the 14-day after (depends who you talk to what the schedule is - pretty much 2 variations floating around).
Day # Port: Dining Theme Show
Day 1 Barcelona: Cruise Casual Let the Magic Begin Let the Magic Begin
Day 2 Sea: Formal Prince & Princess Twice Charmed
Day 3 Valletta: Cruise Casual Rotational Variety
Day 4 Tunis: Cruise Casual Rotational Once Upon a Song
Day 5 Naples: Cruise Casual Rotational The Dream Goes On
Day 6 Civitavecchia: Cruise Casual Master Chef Variety
Day 7 La Spezia: Cruise Casual Pirate Crew Talent Show
Day 8 Ajaccio: Cruise Casual Villains Villains Tonight
Day 9 Villefranche: Semi-Formal Capitans Gala Disney Dreams
Day 10 Sea: Cruise Casual Til We Meet Again Remember the Magic
After almost 2 hours on the phone last night my cruisemate and I have figured out what we are going to do in each port.
- Valletta - On our own - probably the hop on/off bus - hope to walk the city and get to the Blue Lagoon
- Tunis - Bardo Museum, Medina, Carthage & Sidi Bou Said - and remembering to pack mucho snacks as they don't feed us on this excursion - which btw what is up with that - 7.5 hours and no lunch?
- Naples - Mt. Vesuvius by 4x4, Hike, Wine Tasting & Pompeii
- Civitavecchia - Todd will will join you, but if things don't work out let us know we think we may venture to do this on our own.
- La Spezia - Florence & Michelangelo
- Ajaccio - Sweet Corsica
- Villefranche - Nice and Monaco
Anyone out there who has booked already know what the times are for any of these excursions? We can't book till 6/10.
BTW - on the FE sorry it is just too stressful to participate on the 10-day. I did it back in 2007 and that was an 11-day. There is just not enough time for me with everything I want to do on the ship, the shore excursions and dealing with jet lag. I don't see me hanging out in the clubs at night either (well maybe if I am still jet lagged the first few nights) like you can on a longer less port intensive trip. That is why I am doing the 14-day after - so I can recover from this trip.
