AWESOME!!

We hd such a great time with you! We are currently boring all our friends and family by making them sit through all 35 days of videos!! kidding...only the videos of the ports...okay and a few sea days. Toni just looks so GREAT on formal nights, we have to make people watch those videos too!! We serve them lots of wine and vodka, so that helps...

I agree! We did a whale watch with them ...it was fantastic! Our youtube video!

you are quite welcome

You are quite welcome. I am glad you enjoyed the videos.

For anyone who might be interested, here is the link to my youtube channel with the playlist of videos of our cruise. Right now, I am up to our first day in Moorea. In the next few days, I will be adding more videos covering the rest of our cruise . I have skipped over the sea days, but will eventually add them too. I hope you all enjoy the vids!

Some photos from FAKARAVA

love the eagle rays!

No..it was an independent tour

Thank you for your kind words!

For those of you who were on TAHITIBYBOAT on March 8. here a a few photos. I hope you like them

Those are from March 7...today was even better!!

These were taken in Papeete...camera: Olympus TG6. I am glad you liked them.

A few photos for all those on the TAHITIBYBOAT tour on March 7...I hope you like them!

This is for you Cheryl! I had to reduce the resolution for this crappy internet, so the photos may be a bit grainy...

Yes..I have seen the greenflash...and even have photos

Heeyyyyyy!!! Are we going to have dueling LIVE REPORTS???

We are on this cruise too. In 2022 on the Noordam, we got off the ship before 8AM. It was not a problem. I am almost positive we could have gotten off at 7AM. The only variable is, as always, the weather. I have an 8 AM tour for our second day in Moorea. I am not concerned. I hope this helps.

Yup..that's salmon, for SURE!

Been there! LOVE that beach!

How do you like the OV room so far? We will be in one on the Koningsdam for 35 days on the cruise right after yours.

Following!

FYI....well, sort of....I phoned the Shore EX people at HAL. After over an hour on the phone with the "experts," no one could tell me if the tickets for the Arizona memorial were included. I read TO HIM the description of the tour which clearly states we would be going to the USS Arizona Memorial and i asked if the tickets( which can only be purchased ahead of time) would be included. He said.."Let me check on that" and put me on hold...when he came back 10 minutes later, he proceeded to read back to me what i had just read TO HIM 10 minutes ago. Trying not to lose my patience, I pointed out that I just read that to him, and reiterated my concern about the tickets to the memorial not being included. He read the description to me AGAIN! He clearly did not know the answer...Soooo..now I am not sure what we shall do..we may cancel the HAL excursion and go off on our own and lose the $149pp HIA perk. I looked through all the other tours for this whole cruise...all the ones we were even remotely interested are now sold out. I do not want to miss out on the USS Arizona again. Also, you can not give your tickets to someone else....They are not transferable. You have to show your ID to use them.

We are on this cruise as well..which excursion did you take to Pearl? We are on the $149 pp tour...We took this for the same reason as you: HIA excursion credit, but we also have Arizona Memorial tickets for 9AM on the first day in Honolulu...we shall see.
