The winters there are probably more bearable than here in Germany.

Can only recommend it to you But about the weather: it depends on where you go. In my village, there is also snow from time to time. The houses are also not modern. Sure, there is heating, but not every room has a radiator. Most of the time it's just electric heating or - if you're lucky - there's air conditioning in the house.

In culinary terms, a trip to Sicily is definitely worthwhile. Anyone who thinks that Italian cuisine only consists of pizza, pasta and lasagna is very much mistaken ^^ Every region also has different specialties to offer, as in every country. In Sicily you will find many dishes that have an oriental touch.

The culture is also interesting. Sure, it's Christian, but it's also somewhat oriental. The reason for this is that Sicily was conquered many times and these people then integrated their culture and food into the country.

The nature is beautiful. You can't compare the summer with the German summer. Where I live in Middle Franconia, it's extremely humid - you'd think you were in the Amazon or something. In Sicily, on the other hand, the summer is dry. The thermometer shows a few degrees higher, but that's not a bad thing. I find the temperature there much more bearable than here (at least the last few years).

Not everything is perfect there. The infrastructure is not so good, so I would really rent a car there. The traffic feels 5 times worse than in Germany. I do see people here who can't drive and endanger others, but it feels like every second driver there xD Apart from that, Italians don't really speak English either, so as a tourist there - without knowledge of Italian - you're in a bit of a pickle.

Sounds really good.

A former work colleague is from Sicily and she also praised it very highly.

As a child I spent 6 summer vacations in Grado, great memories. Of course, the northern Adriatic and Sicily are two different things.
But Italy is beautiful!

Hello 👋

Here I am again with a little interim report

So asking what RTP the slots on the ship have makes no sense either by email or directly on site in the casino, nobody knows what an RTP is, I assume only the management knows that ...

Ma day 2 of my cruise I wagered my board credit of 200€ at the machines and paid out 170€, which I now have in my wallet, to the slots... typical american Las Vegas slots the chinese ones where you have to light the 3 pigtails or the ones with the 3 pigs which you have to request to get fatter, my strategy I wait until someone has fed them for me, has no more money, then I sit down, but what I noticed is that they are worse than the ones in our casinos, these slots have recently become available, and what bothers me is the minimum 0.75€ / spin are due.
At the tables well what can I say double zero etc. But at least a minimum of 2€ you can make something with a little luck and there is something for every budget what I want to say is that at casino austria it is now common practice on a Saturday evening in the main season to set the minimum from 10 to 20...the times with 2€ or...2.50€ are over

So I hope 2 fat pigs are waiting for me today

Ciao from Sicily

Are there no boxes from novo and Merkur?

The slots from las vegas have a pretty lousy rtp and the min bet is usually always so high
Good luck and keep having fun 👍

So you speak from the soul!
But everything from the beginning:

Our cruise is over and I left the ship with a small plus of 200 € (all slots)
Yes, you're absolutely right ... the China Bamboo / Dragon / Piggy slots are one and the same when you play them.
The one with the wolf where the houses are blown away seems to me to be from a different developer (or not)
Anyway, you have quite a high bet minimum 0.75€ / spin and free spins when they come pay from 10 pieces once well and by well I mean that from 100x - 200x upwards.... But then no more than that. My maximum free spin result at 0.75€ was 130€ for the wolf with the huts, 100€ for the 3 pigs and 80€ for this Chinese game you can see in the photo ..... and now it comes....
There is the Grand with e.g. 12k then the mega with 7k then Major...Mini.... Etc. Well and with a bit of luck one of the symbols usually remains Mini or Minior and wins the amount... you know your way around anyway, well I always thought mega & Grand was just fake in the casinos on ships but think again, the Mega was cracked with 7K with a bet of 1.50€ on a machine next to me....my jaw dropped and I was in this gambling den every day and not a single one had won anywhere near 1k on the machines that week...and yet it seems to be possible!

About the tables :
Double zero what else can I say, plus simple chances minimum on one table 25! € on number 5 € or on the other 2€ and on simple 10€, at Blackjack the same one table 25 the other 10,
When asked, they said... on no older ships is the limit lower, you can play with €1 chips on tables, on the modern newer ones the limit is higher .... Well, at least I'm not out with a minus,
Oh yes, and nothing in sight from Merkur and Novo far and wide...but that's always been the case.

And I'm happy to be home again
Home sweet home

Edit: I have photographed the photo of the Jackpot win, unfortunately I can't seem to upload it here 🤑😥
