Lions-Saints on at 3 am here tonight. I'll watch if I wake up. Swans won't lose this week 😁 Go Swans!

Yes, you are correct. You don't have to use the app at all, but I think if you want to reserve at the specialty restaurants before you board, you will need it. Once you're on, not required except as you noted. Put away the phones, relax and enjoy the cruise!

Wow, I can't believe they won. I watched the first 5 minutes, they were down 12-1 and didn't look very organized. That 2Q sounds great. I just couldn't keep my eyes open, sorry I missed it. But, nice win. That win should put the rest of the league on notice!! Thanks for posting Leigh. Go Swans!

Demons--Swans on tonight here--at 3 am 😮 I I wake up, i'll watch. otherwise, I'll check here in the morning for any posts. Go Swans!

Hi all Trying to coordinate a small group for a college mini-reunion; we have tentatively picked Oct 2024 for an X Canada/NE cruise RT from Boston. I am trying to stay on top of the release schedule because even this far out, many of the cabins we'd like to book are already taken for Oct 2023. Any notions on when this schedule will be released, based on past experience? We've cruised X a couple of times but not familiar with when they update their schedules, which might vary with the region? Thanks for any help.

Also, Roll Calls for cruises to the same place you're going will work.

Try Ports of Call. Select the country/region, then you can drill down to more specific places. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/2-ports-of-call/

That video seems to say it all. Maybe the 2nd punch was a bit over the top?

I am shocked, shocked, to read that Buddy was suspended 😁 Can't believe he would intentionally hit another player. OK, I'm just kidding. Seems like a bad time to lose him, what with some big games upcoming. They are starting to show more AFL games here, a little earlier than usual. I hope that means more people here are watching and they continue to add games. Go Swans!

Tonight, we will get to see the Lions--GWS Giants game, at a reasonable hour. Yay!!

I agree, we watched some of that one. The people they hire are so immature I really wonder if all younger folks are like that. Plus, it drives me crazy when they say "like" every other word. I guess I'm just old. And, all you kids get offa my lawn 😁 (Do you use that expression down under??)

"Tough few weeks". On no, that sounds bad. Going to look at the schedule now... On a completely unrelated note, do any of you watch Below Deck Down Under? I have watched the other versions of this and started watching this one. This season has been quite fun, watching the chef vs Captain 'discussions'. Go Swans!

A come from behind victory, yay. That might have been an exciting game to watch. Glad Buddy finally woke up and contributed. What's the scuttlebutt on the Swans--playing above their capability, disappointing? I don't get to hear much from fans here 😉 Thanks again for posting Docker. Go Swans!

Hi mates Well, it's spring and I believe another AFL season is about to be sprung (at least that's what I hear from possum52 a very credible source) 😁 I haven't been paying a lot of attention to CC these past 2 years but now I see a glimmer of light on the horizon. I know it's been a tough few years Down Under--fires, covid, recent floods. I am wondering if you have locusts?? If so, you may want to keep an eye out 😉 So, what are your predictions for AFL this season? Who are the favorites? Any good rumors out there, whether or not they have passed rumor control? I'll start--Swans make the playoffs but finish 2nd to...the Lions. Hope everyone is well and you all have cruises in your near future, although I guess Australia hasn't quite opened cruising up yet.

Hi all We just added a TA for after our Italy-Med cruise in November. We get off 1 ship on Nov 14 and board the TA to Ft Lauderdale on Nov 17. We will have already spent a week in Rome and could go back there but we are thinking it might be OK to stay at Civi. What do you experienced folks think? Any hotel recommendations for Civi? I have read there isn't much to do there and I'm not sure about the quality of hotels. We are thinking of taking a private tour of areas outside Rome after we get off the first ship (Island Princess), then just spending 3 nights in Civi. That might be a little long so I am looking for other options. There is a train station there--could we use that for a couple of fun day trips? We have no problem going back to Rome if that is the best choice. Thanks for any help, Mary Lynn
