So Crystal made a typo and wrote Gates instead of Bates. Shocking.🙄

I don't think Melinda Gates looks like Melinda French Gates, Bill Gates' ex.

It will be so nice to hear news of Symphony and crew!

Thank you, Terry! We've seen far too few posts from those on Symphony and we pine for news.

Re new ships - typical Crystal (that we LOVE) but never in our lifetime, which is getting shorter! We'll never see the new ships but would be happy to sail on the "old ships"!

That 18 days sure went by fast! Totally enjoyed your commentary and pictures, thank you! Safe travels back to Sydney.

Lovely pictures! We met Benjamin on our first Symphony cruise in 1999! We went to the pool and he offered us refreshment, we asked for water, and he returned and used our names. To this day I don't know how he knew our names! He is the best!

Ooops, guess I was focused on your sea day!

Waterside closed for lunch on a sea day? Hmmm

Have a great time! Wish we were there too!

For some of us, FIVE minutes is a big deal!

50? minutes?!! Aaarrrggghhh😱 NOway for us, a taxi or bust.

What a great write-up, thank you, Terry! And such great pictures too! You've made us homesick for our favorite ship😎

I know that.

You mean those cheesy flimsy things that are fine for laundry but not much else? What about a nice real live tote like they used to give?
