Restricted area unless it's an emergency. Not a good idea to enter a restricted area.

Of course I wouldn't enter a restricted area, Pam. :rolleyes: are these doors labeled as such, Pam?

I used the same thing on the Island transiting the canal, but it was on transit day, so may not count.

I managed it online using this site..... http://www.migraciones.gov.ar/accesibleingles/

This is the only site you should use.

Make sure you take a few copies of the ticket in case someone wants to keep one.

It appears there is a stairwell next to our aft cabin, C753. Terrace pool is 2 decks up. Will I get yelled at if I use them?

Hair nets. Great for covering plates when being carried from Horizon Court full of fruit and pastries. or whatever... they are cheap and easy to pack.

Why would they oversell and have to give cruises away? Just call the ship sold out when it's sold out. Someone please explain how this all works? :confused:

Princess touts using local influences for special menu creations. Does this mean they will serve beef from Argentina and seafood from Chile? I hope so :D

Looking forward to trying the new Seawitch microbrew and other 50th anny stuff...

I"LL TAKE IT!! except my offer probably wouldn't cut it...

the cake is chocolate, delicious and enuff to share. for sure tell them it's a day for celebration!

besides that, princess already knows your bday...

and if the 14 day is b2b, go to the captains circle desk and ask for 2 credits towards elite status (cuz it takes lots!)

We have C753 for a 14 day around the horn cruise. I would be very tempted to upgrade to a mini suite. The extra space is nice if on a 2 week trip. maybe not though...

think tropical! Panama Canal is amazing

if the cruise is 14 days. you might have enough days to go Elite half way. good luck with that! We do Cape Horn next year...

m&y

did you make that up?

So 7 points for a one week cruise no matter what type of cabin you are in ?

no, one point. go to the website to see the rewards program. after 15 or so you are elite, which is very kewl!

cabin doesn't matter, to answer the ? nor does length of cruise, apparently

m&y

in my experience, there are no locked doors, or stairways... something to do with safety!

We will be departing Buenos Aires aboard the Golden the day the Seahawks beat some inferior team to repeat. Think the game will be on MUTS there?

hasta, m&y

Use local currency.Todays black market rate-,sept. 1st is about 14 pesos.--Choose radio taxi.Our largest bill is pesos 100 about $7,00 US

Where is the best place to change dollars. Trustworthy and safe. tia cuartito!

Should we get pesos at the airport for taxi to our hotel?

Keep in mind that you'll only be viewing the canal 1 day out of 17.

actually, it only takes about 9 hours to transit the canal... and it's amazing :)

(Like will our FCC cover the deposit fully until final payment?)

yes

You can get whiskey from room service, if that's the question...

We did it for an entire cruise and won't again. the attendants wouldn't leave us alone, and they upcharge for getting you beers or drinks.

there are always plenty of loungers on deck for sunning, and I've never had any trouble finding a spot near a pool. Better to spend the $ on a UBB!

there's also talk/plans for a canal through Nicaragua, which was the other choice when Panama was built. Hmmm...

If Russia decides to move forward with moving some military bases in Latin America, do you guys think it could affect cruising?

 

 

no, business is business. at least i hope so...

I just took it off the list. pile of rocks! been there, done that...

I would not want a paper box of wine bursting on loading/transfer. It's an individual choice. Enjoy your trip.

 

 

yep! the baileys is for the coffee...
