Hi Sinni,

It has been a long time since we saw you and Lowry in Hilo on your 28 day to South Pacific from San Diego.  I haven’t been on cruise critic for awhile so haven’t seen your travels.  We moved to Las Vegas from Kona in Nov 2019.  If you travel our way it would be nice seeing you.

Myself and two friends booked a cruise on Fantasia in February in inside cabins and we were all assigned an oceanview. Cruise is in September.

I apologise for the late reply. The cabins were assigned in the end of June. 

Our thoughts exactly.

 

Who cares if "SHE" jokes about her shoes or "HE" jokes about using SIRI on his cell phone for nautical directions.

 

We will be sailing with her in May and will not give it a second thought.

We are sailing on the Summit 4/9 and 4/16. Hoping Kate will be the captain. Does anyone know her schedule.

Gary my friend!!

Aloha!

 

Great to hear from you.

How did you like Vietnam?

We loved it so much that we decided to go back for a land vacation soon.

Hope we get to cruise with you guys soon again.

Say hi to Julie.

We loved seeing Vietnam. The people were very nice. My biking friend is going there in October with family and friends for a biking tour and food feast. I'm enjoying the free drinks on Celerbity now but really hope we cruise again soon. Keep writing your reviews. We all enjoy them

Gary

Aloha Sinny,

We love reading your reports and seeing you smiling faces. Looks like you had a great time with your friends. Say hi to Lowry for us.

Gary and Julie

Ps: I think we were in Vietnam a couple of days after you.

So if anyone has any questions, fire away.

I have saved all the compasses and have four other people to ask if I myself can't remember something (because I do know everything, OK?)

 

 

The next report will be in.....(drum roll).....(more drum roll).....April 2014!!

 

That'll be just me and the hubby again.

 

 

Thanks for reading, everyone.

Have a nice day and even better next cruise :cool:

What ship in April. We will be doing B2B on Allure in April.

Gary

The others woke up and we decided to have breakfast in the Park Café. It was pretty easy to find seats (which I found surprising).

 

 

 

See the little black spots?

 

 

They are seals.

 

 

 

 

Imagine having this as the view while eating your breakfast.

 

Now have I sold you an Alaska cruise already?

I'm ready to cruise Alaska but have to wait until after the Allure cruise (saw your report). Glad to see you and your friend having so much fun. Had a great trip in Tahiti - was costly but beautiful. Thanks for the review. It's wonderful!!!

Garyyyy!!! Hope you had a great second week.

It was so much fun to meet you guys. Let's keep in touch and see if we can cruise together again or show our homes to each other some day :)

Say HI to Julie!

Back in Kona. Reviewed some pics and video. Julie got a video of me scaling the rock climbing wall. I think I need to edit that in fast forward so I look better. Video of the sting rays in Antigua is cool so I'll do a short youtube video. Lowry has my email & youtube info but if it is misplaced you can see the sting ray video by searching garytrow sting ray (tomorrow - not edited yet).

Aloha,

Gary & Julie

Say HI to Julie!

Second week was fun but school was out in PR so lots of kids in the pool during sea days. Check out kona123.com for some info on Kona. We live by White Sands beach. Looking forward to the Alaska review. Hope to see ya in Kona sometime. Great review.

Aloha, Gary and Julie

Ps. Funny that we all made it to schooners but didn't make contact.

No, Jewel does not have a Diamond Lounge yet. No schedule for when it might come.

We left the Jewel today after 14 days at sea. Captain Thor said the Jewel will be in dry dock in 2016 so that is when you can expect the diamond lounge. We mostly just drink wine so the nightly diamond happy hour was great for us.

Great review Sinny. We miss you guys. In PR now. 13 hrs in the air tomorrow.

Aloha,

Gary and Julie

We were there for about 1 1/2 hours. We met a very nice couple from Los Angeles and talked to them. I am usually very good with pictures so I thought I would recognize y'all. But I guess I didn't. Lol

We were there also. Looked around a bunch but didn't know how to contact everyone. Maybe we should have had beads.
