What a great review and so interesting to see how different the cruises out of Singapore are, are you on both the 5 and following 12 nights cruises?

Did Freedom leave already?

So glad that I found your new adventure, and so sorry Jeremy could not come.

what a great start to you trip, thanks for sharing.

what a great start and fun to do both of the private islands

We were on Harmony a couple of weeks ago, and when we got on they only had the frame of a couple of casitas up, by the time we left all of the frames were up, they really worked fast on them.  It seems that it will make if fairly crowded on deck as the structures are fairly bulky, curious to hear how you feel about them,

The real question is how is the dog, is she still eating?  Really looking forward to your trip and I am sure many fun stories from your crew.

What a wonderful start to your cruise, looking forward to following you.

Have not been back to the Finger Lakes in almost 30 years, but fondly (even if a bit fuzzily) remember the Naples Grape Festival every September. Is Bully Hill winery still there?

Bully hill is still there bigger than ever and with the same great labels with the donkey.

LOL...thanks!   We have another cruise with another line booked in June, and a winery guest house just prior to that.  Need my wine fix.  😉 

Thank you so much for taking us along, what amazing experiences you are having.

Where are you going for your wine trip, I live in the finger lakes region on NY and we have some pretty good wineries, beautiful place to visit.

No idea.  A few years ago, on a simple 7 night cruise on Freedom we had 8 medical emergencies.  It was unreal and sad, and two of them were almost at the same time.  We all hope it does not happen to us, but obviously we can't read the future.  

we were on a cruise on Anthem in January 2019 I think, there were multiple ambulances at every port, and at every port we turned around to go back and disembark a sick passenger, we also made it back to port at I think around 8:00 p.m. the night before as there was someone who needed to get off.  Very sad cruise

looking forward to following your adventure.

I am so sorry for the beginning of your cruise, what a nightmare both paperwork and of course much worse your daughter's health, I hope that you can rest this week.

We also often drive to Florida for cruises or vacation, and I actually really enjoy the drive, it is part of the vacation and really gets us in the mood.  Of course that is as long as there is no snow.  We have also taken the auto train, and that is such a relaxing way to go.  Looking forward to following you.

 It's going to be a full time job just staying with that group day in and out but week 2 with just DW and I might get a live going.

 

I won't please everyone but that is what that little red x is for up in the corner.  

I look forward to whatever review you come up with, we will be on harmony on January 14 and really looking forward to the cruise.

Finally caught up with your report, happy belated birthday,  I am really looking forward to your report especially after reading @Norwaylady trip.  I feel like I am vicariously travelling the world.

me too and would not let me sign up or do anything, just froze the page, as others mentioned I had to close the browser and get back on the page.

Obviously by you. I see it as addressing the content. 
Who’s right, you or me?

@BND is correct, if you quote a post as I am doing currently I am responding to that post,  not the content of a previous post.

loving your review, this is a trip that we are hoping we can take at some point,

thanks for sharing your trip, i am enjoying following your adventures, I just need to remind myself not to ready while I am hungry

As for Lisa, she is actually hoping to have the surgery. She has had a constant ache on the front side and if she eats a bit of “bad” food she has the same pain only worse on her front and back side. It’s been 6 weeks so far, and she doesn’t want this forever. 
 

She’s going to tell the DR she wants it out. Turns out we know a few people who have had it removed. 
 

 

I had mine out about 5 years ago, what a relief I felt so much better, and have had no issues since then.

For those Diamond members, we have been kicked out of the Crown Lounge between 5pm-8pm, reserved for Diamond+ and Pinnacle.  The lounge is available all other times though 

 

We are on Harmony in January so I will assume that we will be kicked out of the crown lounge also, did they give you an extra non alcoholic coffee drink every day, they have done that on past cruises with high numbers of Diamond, Diamond plus

you are such a talented writer, I loved reading about your trip and all of your experiences.  Take care of yourself.

@singinalot  I am sorry to hear the news, no matter what happened it is hard.  Now I want to read your turkey blog and find more about your next adventure, can you share the location of your blog.

My friend spent 10 days in The City and walked 77 miles . Not for me for sure . You like to walk . Are you up to the challenge? 

My youngest spend the day in NY on Sunday, stayed in a hotel in NJ took the train in, they walked 11 miles and had a wonderful time.  So easy to get your steps in the city
