The Royal C incident/ accident where grandad was holding a child who fell over and did not survive, made us and our dtr & sil hold off. .Now the boys are 4 and 8 but still have to be watched, although they might do Disney in a year or two. So far the boys are happy with Great Wolf style resorts! A 16 month old is probably easier

Enjoy your day!. PV was one of our all time fav ports..Did a long tour..old and new and a great Tequila tasting!

looks like weather had an impact on plans.. great reading all the posts so far. BON VOYAGE!

love the Bento, & with green tea = perfect! sounds like you are enjoying pre cruise sights and food..police boxes and child kidnap warning signs? ...did the city feel safe? hope you have another nice day ahead!

that's the problem with the refurbs. same for Connie and Infinity.. hoping S Class are in better shape" under the hood"..trying Silhouette next.

Very nice photo.. We tried doing the star gazer programs twice...but it was windy out on a top deck at sea where it was held..The program never took off...probably best for overnights in port.. The roof top terrace seems like a good location..we had a calm night for dinner at the restaurant up there but a dark sky we have had great sky views in the SV..aft balc..

huh.. forget about copyright issues . esp with all the AI nowadays.. thanks for taking the time to produce the videos.. (and the coral info as well)

omg you know so many subjects! How about your travels? it's not to make a living but you and wife would get nice cruises on diff ships, impart knowledge and meet nice people! Just a thought!

wlWhat camera do you use? ( sorry if this was covered..but I can't recall) I know it's more about the photographer than the camera but sometimes it helps!

great video!

loved the professional quality of yoyr photos.. thanks for sharing your stroll! Of course the kitty stole my heart! and I am ordering the porto fan asap!

i would not book any cabin with a balcony for toddlers or children..stuff happens! Our grands are boys 8 and 4... we take no chances...they are full of surprises! Maybe an inside in vicinity of a suite for grandparents ???

Jim you are a wealth of info... ahead of the curve! I won't need these sleep buds as I sleep quite well but now only 7 hrs per night...old age!

interesting post.. I wondered where the misnomer " virtual veranda" came from as to Celebrity.. We like to call it a "garden room".. like a closed in porch with optional window! Put a few fake orchids/ plants in there and it could be a nice sun room

All so incredible .. What is your opinion about the condition of the coral? Lots of work is being done in Fla (Marine Mote) on coral health and re growth.. Good friend's dtr, a marine biologist is doing some international lectures on Reef rehab....very much needed!

loved it...loved the music! hope you had fun!

how nice of you to go above and beyond for a fellow cruiser.. enjoy your day..great itin & great weather!

I'd suggest a classic evening look..and let the bling shine ! ! (hint hint)

Many of the Beyond the Podium presentations are worth attending in person and taking another look on the TV..both on your cruise look great. . Have you ever thought about doing a lecture series?

we brought or shipped home coffee, nuts and beautiful smooth skin creams. So many great products from Hawaii...no junk!

surfandsun I think you really hit the jackpot with this tour and guide...great choice!

very nice memento!

Sorry the dive excursion did not work out for Marcia.. Only she can decide if she is done with diving.. Maybe if you both can go together it might work better. Or go with a better provider. We gave up snorkeling after our last mishap..It was off a nice dive style boat on St Croix across from an island..It was with an experienced crew and not overcrowded. But the water was very rough, it was a narrow trail, and the group was moving very quickly. I got caught up in coral..Sal came to my rescue and was scratched badly. He had an awful reaction..same as his lobster allergy.. He took benadryl asap .. but we had to wait for the others to finish up, boat ride back to port and then a long bus ride to the port pier...He saw the ship's dr asap and also our dr at home.Took abt a month for his system to clear. So no more snorkel trips! We will sign up for glass bottom boats and semi submersibles ..not the same but safer for us!

glad you arrived ok.. great photos..off to a good start. Looking forward to this review! thanks for sharing....

last time the photographer took a nice group pic and a few indiv ones with Cap..all for sale!
