you appear to be visiting the same ports on the star this march as we will be visiting next feb on the star. we are booked with patrick watts but are not doing well in the other port. would you be so kind as to share what port tours you are doing this year? if you prefer to send the info directly my email is pennstateray@hotmail.com. thank you in advance for whatever info you can provide.

due to the info that was developed though this thread we learned of patrick watts. by booking with him over a year in advance we avoided cavemanjoe's problem. we will be in the falklands aboard the star princess feb 16, 2011. will be a major disappointment if rough seas prevent our visit to the falkland islands. i have been reading about the 1982 war. i now understand how it came about and have learned more about the scale of the conflick then was reported in our media. if your travels every bring you to the new york, philly, washington dc area feel free to contact me for advice. ray

thanks for all the feed back we received from cruise critic members. it was reassuring to know his drivers were either talkers or will open up once they see your interest. thanks again and best wishes for a great holiday season and happy cruise fulled new year.

we are booked for feb 2011. our ship is sheduled will be in port from 8 am to 6 pm. patrick has told me assignments are made the morning of the tour. his latest email state he will reply in due time with more info. i peregrina651 great pictures. i have no doubt that this is a must do tour. we will be on the first tender unless princess reserves it for thier tours.

i have read great things about patrick, however i understand he has a number of people who drive and guide for him. has anyone had any experience with any of his driver/guides? thanks in advance. ray

know how you feel. not a cruise, but we had a photo shop lose our pictures of christmas 1977 when our daugher was five. oh,they did give us a free roll of film.

several years ago this happened on a celebrity cruise during the newly wed game. a man in his 30's was asked by the mc where was the strangest place you and your wife ever had sex. after a moment he replied "in an elevator". the mc pushed futher and asked "where" after several moments he replied "on this ship". when the wife was asked the same question, she fixed a stare on the mc and began turning red. after several request for an answer the wife said in a very low voice "an elevator". not stopping there the mc asked "where"? by now the wife was beyond red. but did say "on this ship". saw them later on the cruise getting off an empty elevator as i was getting on. had to wonder what might have happened moments before.

our 1st cruise was on the consitution out of honolulu on april 2, 1983. what a great time. far different then today's floating cities.thanks again for the info.
