Bon voyage! Have a great trip.

Thanks, Copper. Today will be our last time watching Noordam before we're on her. My, how time flies...

George

Both great itineraries!

Bon voyage to all!

Thank you all for your replies. You have helped reinforce what we felt was a good idea. We anticipate being somewhat impressed by this experience, and if we are to be ruined for life, well, I suppose what must be must be. ;)

Oh, and if you hear rumors that it took two men and a horse to drag a lil' fat feller off of a ship somewhere, it's likely only a tale.....:o

Hi. We just accepted an upsell today on our Aug 28th first cruise. We're now in Neptune suite 7057 on the Noordam. We've been watching this forum for months now, and if we've learned anything about cruising from you good people it's that we have sooo much to learn. Well, guess you can't beat the classroom :D

So, does anyone have experience with this suite? Would anyone be willing to share their favorite reasons for sailing in a Neptune suite? Any tips for some raw newbies?

Our thanks to all of you for sharing your experiences and knowledge. You truly do help smooth the way for others.

George and Lori.

Bon Voyage!

Bon Voyage!

Two very awesome trips. Happy traveling to all!

Thanks for keeping us updated. Hope you and yours enjoy your day of fun in the sun. :)

George

Thank you for your review. Glad to hear you enjoyed the Noordam.

Bon Voyage!

Looks like they're sailing on a mirror this morning....

Thank you, sir. Always enjoy seeing Noordam pulling in to Juneau. Looking forward to finally seeing it from the other end :)

Bon Voyage!

Our cruise tour officially starts Aug. 23. Unofficially, it begins the day before, with a long day of flying. Somehow, that's probably going to feel official. :eek:

And while I'm at it. As a months-long lurker on these boards, may I say that I appreciate and respect the time and effort you put into sharing your knowledge. I would believe it is absorbed and appreciated more than you know. Meanwhile, it's been a pleasure speculatin' with you.:D

Would it be normal to launch one of the boats during a day in port? If so, perhaps a problem occurred during recovery? Yeah, I know, raw speculation. Only allowed in the oil markets, lol.

George

Thought I heard something about possibly an issue with one of the boats. Fast rescue boat, maybe?

Will take our first cruise next month on Noordam, so we're enjoying watching her whenever we get the chance.

George

Please include us on the Noordam, sailing Aug 28th from Seward to Vancouver as the final leg of a cruise tour. This is our first cruise, and we're so looking forward to it!

Lori and George

I'm finding it very interesting. Love the pictures. Thanks for sharing.

George

Glad you enjoyed your cruise. And thanks for the report. We'll be doing our first cruise this Aug. on the Noordam. Keeping our fingers crossed for some of your weather.
