The last leg of that lovely itinerary. I can't wait to hear how this ship handles when she crosses the pond. Hopefully, the seas are smooth and the winds fair for rafinmd and everyone on board as they sail from Lisbon to Fort Lauderdale

Thank you all. Jacqui, the hot trend in luxury cruising these days seems to be massive space to passenger ratios. While the Odyssey is only 450 passengers she’s over 32,000 tons, more than 80% the size of the Prinsendam. What I need to see is how I will adapt to all those sea days without a Promenade Deck 80% as big.

 

MMDown Under, sometimes I’m pretty good at putting together combinations, and sometimes it’s just dumb luck. I do make a habit of booking QM2 to Europe when I’ve planned a TA back to the US, but this time I fully expected to fly. I thought QM2's November 12 departure was just not close enough to my Seabourn cruise, when I just happened to notice QE’s itinerary. I wasn’t looking for it, and it came to my attention by a flyer I received when on QM2 in January. I call that pure dumb luck.

 

I have established my thread on the Seabourn forum:

and will continue with the same blog as Cunard:

That’s the blog I now kind of permanently use for “ordinary” trips. How decadent is it that this is classified as an “ordinary” trip. I also hope to keep my eyes peeled for the Rotterdam on December 19.

This may be as good a place to post as any. I was in Funchal yesterday where there seems to be a tradition of ships leaving messages on the sea wall. I noticed these:

Reminiscent of Skagway, but the paint looks a bit brighter.

Thanks for the pics.
