On the website they have a behind the scenes zoo experience which I would love to do. Being born and raised and living all my life in Southern California, until we retired, nothing on this cruise is really new to us. We are approaching it as a wine-tasting cruise! But yes, we will have to look for you and your camera on April 18 next year.🙂

Yes, Easter is April 20 next year. We will spend it on our Pacific Coast Explorer cruise. It is a sea day for us.

I would hate this change. We are scheduled in Nov. 2025, over Thanksgiving, which wouldn’t make a difference in Europe. But our reason for going is to go to Malta, and hopefully to get to see the Alhambra. I would probably cancel with this change. It is an expensive cruise, and as you say, North African ports are iffy anyway. We have missed Morocco twice now!

I just canceled. The excursions no longer appear on the calendar, but I have nothing from Viking showing the cancelation or the amount. I spoke to Viking and they said the only time they send a request is if your bank “ won’t accept a refund request.” Since this is just a bank transfer, essentially, I just don’t understand this. We shall see.

I also want to cancel an excursion for our trip embarking in two weeks. Usually, I just wait and do it on the trip, where they credit my on board account and I use it to pay for gratuities at the end. But this excursion is more expensive than the gratuities. So I don’t know because we have never had a surplus at the end of a trip. Do they just credit it to our credit card? I don’t want to be running around trying to buy things we don’t need. And our cruise is so port intensive I really don’t have any days for extra spa treatments. Should I just cancel now, I wonder? I paid by ACH draft, so I guess the refund would go to my bank? Any opinions? I have one more week until MVJ closes.

Interesting. We leave 8 days later, and the documents say departure from Greenwich at 2 pm. Quite different tides I guess. I’m getting excited too. Just got packed for luggage forward pick up this week.

Never. Sometimes after booking, we will see the price go up, but we are always locked in at what we bought it for.

Thank you, thank you. I believe I’ve got it now. I thought we might have knock on the Chief Engineer’s door when we boarded the ship to get help.

Here is a photo of what I’ve got. On the left, my iPhone 15 cord, with same size plugs, and on the right my older iPad’s cord with two different size plugs. Will the old one work? Problem is, we have three older devices. Exactly what part of this doesn’t work? The cord or the charger, and why won’t it work. And what about people who didn’t read Jim’s post and just go to the ship with whatever they have? Sorry to be so dense.

I’m wondering if is the difference in the new charging cord for my iPhone 15 and my old iPhone 8? They aren’t the same and they aren’t interchangeable.

Oh, oh. We are on Neptune in three weeks and I don’t really know what this means.

From our 2019 WC

We are taking our first River cruise this fall on one of the typical Longships. 190 pax 53 crew.

OMG,I hate the beds, so hard. Give me a back ache. My husband loves the beds. He hates the pillow top at home. We travel a lot on Viking, so I guess it evens out, lol.

We have this same pic from the observatory at the end of the 2019 WC.
