  1. I would say 45 minutes? But return seemed a little faster. If you do go, when you get off the bus at PP, walk right (facing the water) all the way to the end point where there a restaurant. That is where we camped. Decent rest room inside, picnic benches, outside bar, inside tables. Lounge chair situation was a bit different......where the bus drops you , a little bit to the right was an ice cream stand where you collect a ticket for $5 per chair. Then you go to the lounge chair guy and stand in line and get him to put your chair where you want. We paid him $10 tip to bring our chairs to the restaurant area all the way to the right hand corner. One can also drag their own lounger. No umbrella was required where we were....lots of shade. This lounge chair business was what many people had complaints about, but we managed it. I do agree that Celebrity could have managed this better by pre reserving chairs or spaces/areas for their excursions, but we were the first cruise to Tobago, so may be now it is better managed. Pigeon Point is their national park, so it is open to all and that day there were many people, but on on each others' backs. The port area had very few vendors set up (five maybe?). I got a christmas ornament from a local artist which I have posted picture of here as well. Port looks big but not a lot there if you just stay within. Once you dock do a visual survey from the ship to check it out.
  2. In November we took the Pigeon Point Beach excursion in Tobago, with Celebrity. You will have to form your your opinion on whether you liked it or not. I had no problem. I am saying this because I am not a negative person, I was fine with it, I saw something new, it was good enough for me, I had nice food, there were 2 restaurants and restrooms, we got two loungers in a nice shaded and breezy spot, transport buses were just fine, had AC...........but the rest of the excursion people had nothing but buckets of complaints. Celebrity refunded everyone with the entire amount, the next day. A friend did the folklore and sightseeing excursion in Tobago and liked it a lot. I did not feel unsafe at any point. People were very friendly. Earlier on I had posted pictures, if you can find those posts from the end of Nov.
  3. I would wait to see what is assigned and bid up from that. But that is just me. You do what ever you are good with. My GTY for an upcoming cruise was assigned the same day I booked. But that cruise is in 3 weeks. I am very happy with the assignment. Is this you World Cruise segment?
  4. The last time we were in Labadee was in September on the Independence. One ship in port. No crowds. I know people were off the ship since there were lines getting on and off, but the island seemed deserted, kind of, compared to previous times. I loved the peace and quiet. We will be there in Feb on the Symphony.
  5. @h20skibum Mark, Do you recall if there are any Boardwalk balconies on the Symphony? Just wondering. I do not see them on deck plans. I see only ocean view balconies on deck 6 in the boardwalk region. Since you were recently on that ship, I thought you would know best. Thanks.
  6. Thank you Pat 1, 2 and 3, Laura and all other genuine WC cruisers for all your amazing pictures. Would never have a chance to see this side of the world without you guys! Thank you, thank you. As Mr Dave described it above: simply OUTSTANDING pictures!
  7. The things I learn from Bob! Thank you. Very interesting. I hope you are enjoying NYC and look forward to seeing pictures.
  8. Marietta Add me to your list of "Happy Birthday singers". Sorry for being late. I love Sister Sophia's (😁 I remember that picture !!!!) Snoopy sweatshirt. I am a big Snoopy fan and actually am wearing one currently.
  9. Love the pictures. Happy you all had a lovely time. Your daughters are lovely and grand kids are so cute. I recognize the two boys from a cruise review you did earlier.
  10. Feel better Lenny. Nurse Toby is a blessing for you. Make sure you give her extra hugs. A back rub or two would be good too.☺️

  12. I hear you....I am not a fan of Silly, Millie, Connie nicknames either.
