We love to sit on our balcony while in port enjoy breakfast or lunch and people/boat watch. On sea days it's my favorite spot to read my kindle and just relax

the times we used the medical center on the ship the cost was charged to our sea pass card. I will say that the cost was MUCH less than we thought it would be. Hope your MIL recovers quickly.

I have done the Honolulu-Vancouver route twice, both late April. While in the islands of Hawaii the temp warm-hot and seas calm. One day out of Hawaii heading to USA/Canada it was cool-warm. Day 2 forward needed jeans, sweatshirt/hoodie if you wanted to be outside with the winds. Not much use of our balcony for the sea days unless we were dressed warmly.

Even still and wonderful cruise and we hope to do it again some day.

i have tried the patch..lots of side effects. Bonnine was good, no side effects.. a little pricey. Ginger did not work for sea sickness and gave me a huge headache and a bad taste, can't even eat it anymore. Meclazine works best and cheap through Amazon or local pharmacy, I take one tablet each night before bed, sleep great and no side affects.

We will be in port 7-2 on a Sunday, will much be open? We would prefer to just stay on the ship but will be with another couple who has never been to Nassau, so maybe the walking tour is the best plan for us?

We put our phones in airplane mode, turn on wifi. Purchase the ships Internet package, we used Facebook messenger to stay in contact with our family. No Charges from verizon. We didn't make any calls. If you have an emergency at home guest services has let us make calls home at no charge.

If your cruising next year just book another cruise while your onboard. We have gotten some great sales doing this plus obc, we then transfer m to our TA for more perks.

We have used FB messenger app for "texting" of course u will have to have a Internet plan. Phones should be in airplane mode with the wifi turned on, so no chance of calls or regular texting coming through and u end up with a massive phone bill. We even used this way while on the Brilliance in Norway and Iceland. Zero charges on our bill and we were able to keep in touch with family at home plus track down our fellow cruise companions on the ship.

We too used the train in Vancouver pier to airport, was so easy. We each had a LG suitcase and a small rolling carry on and felt the short walk was comfortable. Unless it's very rainy then go for the train!

On the Solstice now, $59/@/day. Unlimited $299. With out elite discount it is $208 but only one device at a time. We also still have 90 min from the other elite coupon so we can activate it for sea days if we both want to brouse for a while.

Not too slow and they said will upgrade to faster speed in a month .

It's been my experience once you start feeling sick it's hard to take meds and get better quickly. I would need to lay down for an hour or more. I take it before the cruise starts and have no side effects.

Bev

Thankyou for the tour link, I will file it away for future reference

Really enjoying your review, I can see we need to book a cruise that goes to Columbia. Love exploring g the old churches and all the history. Do you have a link for the tour operator?

You may be able to find it at the airport when you land. I always take it each night before going to bed starting the night before the cruise starts. I have had experience with seasickness and I wouldn't want to repeat it 😝 ginger did nothing for me except give me a headache and I cannot even eat it anymore.

Can you purchase Meclizine over the counter, usually at the pharmacy counter? Or I have also purchased it from Amazon for very little cost. It's the generic of bonine.

Bev

Pineapple water sounds so refreshing, hope we enjoy some on our Solstice cruise to Hawaii :)

Loving your review, hope you get to feeling better very soon.

Bev

Good to see your Costa Rica pictures, when we visited it poured rain all day. We also had our tour with Oscar Brown and had a great time despite the rain :) Enjoying n your review we loved the Equinox.

What a beautiful send off from St. Marten! Love the tanzanite earrings, it's my favorite stone, I always try and pick up something as a cruise memory.

We did the Fjords last summer, we did have a balcony cabin and did spend alot of time enjoying the scenery, for sailaway and Fjord sailing we did prefer to be up on the top decks to get the whole panoramic view. It's good to have a choice

I have heard to buy pineapple wine, is this easy to get locally? We will be staying at the Hilton Waikiki Beach precruise so somewhere we can walk to is best. We do have a sams club membership also. Thankyou

Amazon sells nice luggage tag sleeves that you put your self printed folded tags into. Just search for them . 8 for around $13 you can reuse these for alot of cruises :)
