We are supposed to get more rain tomorrow and maybe next week. Glad to hear that you are okay. It’s going to take a long time to recover from this mess.

Coming from a state (Vermont), that routinely wins prizes for its craft cheeses (not to mention beer!), we would probably give it a miss too!

That’s our State capitol building in Montpelier, with the statue of Ceres, the goddess of agriculture, on top. In front, is State “Street.”

At the time, it was said it was a once in a 100 year event

We had a similar catastrophe in 2011 with Topical Storm Irene, so this is so discouraging

https://www.wcax.com/2023/07/11/parts-interstate-89-closed-emergency-shelters-open-across-vermont/ Thank you, @nordski. It is the worst flooding in the state’s history. My hometown of Montpelier is under water, as are many other towns. And many, many roads washed out, where rivers have jumped their banks. My son-in-law’s organic farm was flooded in such a way, which will render any crops they couldn’t harvest in advance unsalable. We here in Burlington are safe and dry, with power, and feel very fortunate.

Is that the early Japan one? The prices weren’t too bad.

Maybe ships like Windstar?

Ok, got it

I hear you, but it isn’t a specific TA site

What ships CAN dock in Venice?

No, you put in your desired cruise and TAs send in their quotes. I’m sure it was mentioned here before

Can someone remind me of the site to go to to get competitive TA quotes?

It just shouldn’t be this difficult.

Sounds lovely.

@Grandma Cruisingwhere are you going (just nosy)?

@nordski, Happy Canada Day to you and all of the other Canadian CCers! It has been very hazy here in Burlington, too, so not healthy to spend too much time outside. Fortunately, still have those N95 masks!

Not expected. But I have gotten them from another cruise line and handy for going ashore. No biggie. I’ll just bring my own.

In my case, Azamara.

I called the Azamara Circle number today and was pleasantly surprised to be on hold for only 4 minutes (called at 9 am EDT). I thought that maybe I would have better luck fixing my points over the phone. Unfortunately, the agent said Loyalty was not yet up and running and to try again after July 4th. She was able to help me with my Refer and Receive question though. FFCs are per reservation, not # of guests referred in cabin.

Which ships?

A top sheet isn’t standard?

So I should bring my tote from a competing cruise line? 😂

Does Viking provide any sort of tote bag in the cabin?

Can the TAs on this board say whether their commission is the same if they initiate the booking or if the booking is transferred to them?
