Hello to the members of the LCT board!

As my partner Hiro and I come closer to the date of our cruise, a few questions have popped into my head and I thought that I'd ask you nice people for some advice. Hiro and I have cruised on "Song of Flower" as well as "Diamond" so we're fairly familiar with the RSSC experience, but this will mark our first time on "Voyager".

Specialty Restaurants: Which evening do you recommend for Signatures or Latitudes?

Bordeaux: We don't arrive in port on Friday, September 2nd until 7:30pm. Is there something special planned for that evening on the ship that would entice you to stay on board, or are any of you going to book a restaurant in the city? I looked at the viamichelin.com website and there are two "One Star" (IMHO, one Michelin star equals approximately a 24 rating on "Zagat Guide")restaurants in Bordeaux. Or are some of you going to eat on the ship and then stroll around in town?

Le Cordon Bleu Workshops: How does one find out more info and prices? According to the RSSC website, it's limited to 16 persons, yet there is no link or info tab which leads to availability or price. And if it's limited to 16, then one would assume it'll be fully booked once on board.

Formal Nights: Anyone know how many formal nights are scheduled for this cruise and on which nights they occur?

My appolgies if any of these questions have been addressed elsewhere...

Cheers!

Eric
