@pirate4me2 how was Chris's dive today?

OMG I pray Chris is NOT going scuba diving after consuming alcohol last night! Big no no when taking diving course, absolutely NO alcohol minimum of 12 hours before diving. Please be careful.

Oops wrong thread! Sorry!

WOW that is a HUGE M&G for sure!

Welcome to the world of modern "social media".....yes many "influencers" fund their cruising from the monies they make on You Tube. It has become pretty overwhelming the past 5-10 years. I am enjoying following several EXPERIENCED cruisers blogs on this adventure which is how I prefer to follow along.

@The-Inside-Cabin..Pete I am hoping that Jay from Parodeejay will interview you while on this cruise.

I'm here for the luggage tracking....and of course the @HelloItsMeB interactions! Paul is great on his own but these two are quite the TEAM!

Fantastic pics!

Calorie burner for sure!

I will be VERY interested to hear your opinion of this location! Seems like it would be nice and quiet. Easy access to Crow's Nest for morning coffee.

So glad you are doing this Pete! You provide such amazing and helpful information! Have a FANTASTIC time, I know you will! Your wrap up on the World Cruise was spot on!

While I am not the author here, I am followng this review and will jump in here regarding rain gear. I highly recommend Frogg Togg's rain gear both tops and pants. Super rain resistant and not hot at all. You can wear over your regular clothing. They were originally developed for those riding motorcycles in Florida and other humid climates and they come in all sizes and colors. We have seen them in many stores.

I am curious to learn what type of cabins fellow cruisers have selected for this cruise. Knowing the daylight schedule I might consider an inside cabin whereas we almost always book balconies. This itinerary sounds simply amazing!

Have a fantastic cruise...excited to be following along this one!

@pirate4me2..thank you great info!

This is gonna be a fun one to follow along, wish I was cruising with you all!

Lookin forward to following this one for sure! Curious minds want to know, who watches over the crew you leave behind at home? That is always something that takes preplanning. We were fortunate that we had a great pet sitter, but you have a farm of critters!

@TxTeach79 safe travels home. I am sure @HelloItsMeB will be happy to see you. Not too mention once you get unpacked you get to repack for your upcoming adventures! That is gonna be a busy time with tons of memories for sure!

@Sugar Magnolia....WOWZA what fantastic pics and memories, looks FANTASTIC!

My other half bought the t-shirt in February as well! Thankfully I did not get it.

@TxTeach79...from the look on your face in the pic I predict a nap is in your very near future! Sweet dreams, maybe fall asleep on the balcony!

@TxTeach79...you seem very "Mello" today, hope you are doing ok! Hang in there buddy!

BEAUTIFUL!

@QuattroRomeo...great tour of Whittier. Really loved all the pics!

@TxTeach79...you sure have an awesome view from your balcony. Staying on board today sounds like a good plan. Float, nap, balcony, room service..read, do whatever floats your boat!
