Thanks Ngaire. We are sure that with our knowledge of RSSC they will have done everything possible to alleviate the problem. We couldn't tell from the deck plan what the layout of the balcony was.
We hope the weather is as kind as it was last year when we did the route in mid October.(On a different line.) We did read on some report that the captain on the Voyager did veer several miles to the south to take advantage of sunnier skies and warmer tewmperatures.

Regarding the Inn of the Seventh Ray; as so many people who have great restaurants close by, we have forgotten to visit the Inn until this reminder.
