Yes, Lewie!! Enjoying your blog very much!! Sorry about your cold - no fun to have one on vacation! Hope it clears up quickly! Can't wait for your next installment in the blog!
-
Enjoying your live report Lewie! Sounds like you are having a great time!
Thanks Aunt Sue! Love your "Mayor of the Island Princess" comment! Leave it to the outstanding Princess cruise to make this trip memorable!
-
So glad you enjoyed Aruba! Can't wait to hear about your trip through the Panama Canal! Be sure to move around the ship to see how things work from different perspectives. The forward and aft open areas on Baja and Caribe deck are great - not everyone knows about them!
-
Happy Sailing Lewie! Island Princess is a wonderful ship! We sailed Alaska and the Panama Canal on the Island. You are in for a real treat! Can't wait to hear more about your cruise! Thanks to Aunt Sue for helping to share your journey!
I like your budget idea!
-
Therein lies the mystery.....was the rep just lacking in knowledge or did some VIP want those rooms?
Probably both true:(
OP - sure hope you get your original cabins back!

While I don't and won't buy a package, I believe any alcohol package should require every adult in a cabin to buy the package. We know people share soda and coffee cards, even though they shouldn't. Sharing an alcohol package would be a nightmare! :D

Thanks! I purchased mine through Lands End.

Thanks!

I snorkeled there on January 5th. It's chilly but definitely do-able. You don't have to stay in the water a long time...you can easily snorkel around the feeding pier in 15 minutes or less. If you wear a rash guard, you'll be a bit warmer.
I admit I am ignorant of many things!:D
I've seen you mention a 'rash guard' here and on your blog,
can you explain what that is?
BTW, LOVE your blog! We will be on the Emerald February 25th for (I think) your last voyage of the winter. Hope to see you there!
-
Yup, you're right. I just checked and they've moved us from B734 to R734. Completely unacceptable! I've done all this research to find these specific cabins for a reason. Time to call Princess. This sucks. :mad:
I agree that this is not acceptable! Now you are in a cabin that will accomodate 4 which means bunks in the way :-(
I find it interesting that Princess has not updated the deck plans on the website. The cabins that people are being moved from still exist on the site. Not good, Princess!:mad:
-
:D At least different ship names :p:D:).
I stand corrected!:D
Hope your doggy goes into a long remission!
Best wishes from another St. Louisan! (actually from Oakville)

His review from last year has the same title. Can anyone say Groundhog Day?:D
-
OP - are you referring to your review in your signature from December, 2011?
-
9!!! I would love a book even though I enjoyed your blog, more insight would be fascinating! Many of us lived vicariously through you on that journey!
-
This needs to be a Sticky!!! What's the deal?:confused:
-
I voted to make this a Sticky! Thanks for all your work to put together this valuable resource!
-
They should make those aft open areas at end of decks 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 as smoking areas -- smoke would not likely drift to cabins on sides, and instead would be blown away from ship. Those open decks are somewhat of a secret area!!
No! Please don't take away my favorite places! Nice and quiet and smoke free!
-
Thanks for the valuable resource! I agree with others that it should be a Sticky for quick access!
-
Thanks to robtulipe and billgran! I'm getting excited!
Of corse, we are paying for a partially obstructed cabin - Cat E and it looks like some Cat F cabins are not obstructed. Wonder if I should reconsider E404 and save some money......
-
I just returned from 10 days on the Emerald Princess in cabin E-404 whose "obstructed view" was great. And the cabins on either side would be a good choice also. These windows are between lifeboats so the view is fantastic.
Forgot to take a picture of the view but except for a low railing on a catwalk, the window was un-obstructed and will ask for that same cabin when I sail again.
We are sailing in this cabin in Sept next year - NY to Quebec City.
Was the bed under the window? Hoping not!
How did you like the location of the cabin? Any noise issues? We've never been on this deck.
Thanks!

I don't understand why people would buy an expensive piece of jewelry (or other item) so far from home. We have a local jeweler that we have used for years and we have never seen anything cheap enough away from home that tempts us.
I've even seen pieces while traveling that I describe to my jeweler that he then custom makes for me. And they are still cheaper than anywhere else.

Spray it on your bed linens. I love to use a Lilac & Eucalyptus spray - very relaxing!

Pam:
Thanks for sharing. It sounds like everyone involved realized the significance of the process. God bless you and your family.
