Same here barney.

We much prefer to find a quite spot on deck or sit on the balcony. We certainly wouldn't even think about laying round the pool hemmed in like sardines. No no no. Plus being on your own deck you haven't got to go too far to top up your preferred tipple :thumbup:
I still take the old 3litre wine box so it’s nice to wander up to the buffet for some cold pickings for lunch and wash it down with a cold glass of vino while soaking up the rays in perfect company and comfort.
A perfect afternoon in the sun.
Empty vessels .. and all that

We’ve had both ends of the spectrum - a suite for the world cruise and insides for most others - the suite on all honesty wasn’t worth paying 3 times as much - we’ve always been very lucky with updates though as well

I'm not a pool person and am looking forward to sitting on my balcony away from the noise if the children.

Have you seen on CC and FB the rumours that Arcadia is being sold.

We’ve got c deck balcony on Ventura in June.
We also have a C deck balcony booked for June Canaries cruise and the 7 night Cruise calling at Porto.

Just hope they are not being used as isolation cabins. We had same cabin booked for September but P & O cancelled the cabin and moved us to R deck. They told us it was an upgrade. We had strong words and cancelled the cruise and transferred to Iona.

As we are due to pay for this cruise soon I have just written to them asking them to confirm that the cabin we booked is available.

We had a balcony cabin directly above C deck and this gorgeous young lady was always out there in her pink bikini…. I felt quite uncomfortable looking down on her balcony so got the binoculars out and made out I was looking at the dolphins :thumbup: :D

Know what you are saying OL. When out on the balcony and leaning on the rail looking out to sea, you do tend to look down and the occupants of the cabins below may also be on their balcony. I find it easy just to acknowledge them with a hello, it breaks the ice.
