On your next voyage suggest you see the Maitre D and offer him a can of Baxter’s Onion Soup to do the taste comparison.Hmmm! What about the public toilets in Catania eg There are not any ! Unless of course you visit a cafe or coffee shop to relieve the discomfort caused. However they may have improved the situation since my last visit. I enjoyed reading the historic background and insight into your detailed description on the various places. I am surprised that Celebrity did not provide AK 47 rifles to the passengers for shooting at the Somali Pirates in the Gulf of Aden a real life adventure interactive better than being in lockdown for several evenings when at sea..As for Abu Dhabi the Customs procedure last we were on Constellation it was a real nightmare being her maiden return voyage from Abu Dhabi to India. Egypt .....Fabulous U.K. CAA has now as you may know approved flights back to the Red Sea Resort of Sharm El Sheikh. with immediate affect Terence Bartlett
