Silversea

More wonderful dribble from the mouth of Chrissy the over inflated ego
maniac...

but to keep on the thread topic....

We all like different things from time to time.. so why not take a cruise
and experience new things.. such as culture, places and experiences..

Grin. well what you think has little or no bearing on the rest of this
wonderful world..

Your only important in your own mind.. hell why do you think the government
wouldn't let you reproduce? To prevent duplications of an experiment gone
wrong!

Get a clue, quotes and mindless dribble just keep eating up bandwidth.. but
then again so do you..

So to quote you... DUH

I think you are well suited to Silverseas as you are an exerienced, well
traveled cruiser. I think there are others here who are not well suited
to Silverseas. Has nothing to do with snobbery, just has to do with
likes/dislikes, weight they put on particular aspects of cruises,
basically, fit. The areas of refinement that Silverseas offer may not
really matter to their wants and needs in a product.

While I'm interested in Radisson Seven Seas Navigator, and perhaps
Mariner and Voyager, I don't see my wife and myself fitting into
Silverseas in the same way.

In less than a month from today, Ben, I'll be here, urging you and
Claudine to take the plunge and go for the Radisson Seven Seas
Navigator or telling you to skip it.

I think it will be the former rather than the latter.

come on Kren I have been telling you for months now ( they SHOULD pay me
for the number of plugs I have placed) book Radisson now! Sail Radisson
again and again. I know I would if I could. From what I can tell from ship
inpections, Silver Sea is much like Radisson except a bit more all
inclusive with regard to beverages. I would love to be able to experience
either, It was hard going on the Oosterdam as it was so big.

When I mentioned that to a Cunard rep (think QM2) he asked if I had been on
a cruise lately, didn't have the heart to tell him "Yes, on Diamond and I
loved it."

I live in Oz and there's a great deal on a Silversea cruise available.
It's a total of 31 days, including return airfares, 3 nights in top
hotels and 28 days on the ship. All this for $14,099 AUD. That's $454
AUD per day. Guess I'd be crazy not to take it up. Selfishly, I'm keep
details to myself.....:)
