Does anyone know if Radiance of the Seas offers a UDP, because as of right now for a cruise we have booked 13 months from now it is not offered. I'm guess though Royal doesn't want to under price it this early.........I guess they are just waiting. Kind of scary seeing this picture when I searched our cruise. Guess we made a wrong turn.

The storm's impacts may exceed the 2011 Bering Sea Superstorm, one of the most powerful cyclones to affect Alaska on record, the National Weather Service in Fairbanks said, adding that some parts of the state may experience their worst coastal flooding in almost 50 years. AccuWeather called it "one of the strongest storms to ever hit the state of Alaska."

I hope that is not all you got out of her post, that is not what is most important about her post.

Grandeur first.

Emails are easy, that's just a flick of a switch. They have everyone's email address on file for each cruise. I would like to see someone in the IT department actually go into the site and keep it updated.

Do you mind sharing the link to that NCL Bliss blog, I think I and others might be interested to see what NCL is offering. Might open a few eyes.😲

I think it's kind of lazy of them not to keep their customers updated on their site, otherwise they should take that link off their site.

@bobmacliberty What day are you in ISP, I see the weather is turning crappy, hope you brought some heavier coats and hats. 56 °F°C Precipitation: 10% Humidity: 77% Wind: 5 mph Icy Strait Point, 108 Cannery Road, Hoonah, AK Saturday Cloudy Temperature Precipitation Sat 56° 43° Sun 58° 38° Mon 58° 42° Tue 59° 43° Wed 57° 38° Thu 54° 37° Fri 55° 37° Sat 55° 37°

Have seen updates here before: It's at the very bottom of the opening page on Royal's main site.........and when I say at the bottom, I mean it. Very Bottom. The "Spot" is still on their website, just have to know where to look. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/cruise-ships/itinerary-updates I think Royal may have even forgot where they put it, not a lot action on it lately even though some itineraries have changed on some of their sailings.

Won't being paying top dollar like before for the product they are delivering now until things are back to the way they were. Until then we will just sit it out and put our $$$ toward other things.

Maybe I missed it, what is the price difference?

Glad you enjoyed it, Like I said the full recipe makes ALOT. When cruising from Miami we always stay right at the Intercontinental Miami right on Biscayne Bay, it's a short walk .4 mile right along side the Bay to Bayside Market Place. Beautiful views of the Bay from your room. Bayside Market Place really has it all. Bars, Restaurants , Entertainment, Shopping, People watching. https://www.ihg.com/intercontinental/hotels/us/en/miami/miaha/hoteldetail?fromRedirect=true&qSrt=sBR&qIta=99618783&icdv=99618783&glat=META_hpa_paid_US_desktop_MIAHA_mapresults_1_USD_2022-09-27_default_17692958395__FALSE_TVUGIGCOR&qSlH=MIAHA&qRms=1&qAdlt=2&qChld=0&qCiD=27&qCiMy=082022&qCoD=28&qCoMy=082022&qrtPt=179.00&setPMCookies=true&qSlRc=TVUG&qRtP=IGCOR&qSHBrC=IC&qDest=100 Chopin Plaza, Miami, FL, US&cm_mmc=hpa_paid_US_desktop_MIAHA_mapresults_1_USD_2022-09-27_default_17692958395__FALSE_TVUGIGCOR&srb_u=1

Anyone every book this for your excursions, looks like something new on your cruise planner. Has anyone ever tried this? and if so what islands. What was it like, the cost etc. It's at the bottom of the excursion page for your cruise. https://webapps.royalcaribbean.com/privatejourneys/

What happens if you step inside the red lines? Do you get a whistle?

I only saw the last quarter of the game because I was watching the Phillies game but there probably would have been no way of watching the whole game like that. It was terrible. There was nothing electric about the broadcasters either Al Michaels and the college guy Kirk Herbstreit, might have been my last Amazon Prime Game in less the Philadelphia Eagles have Thursday Night Game.

Probably doubtful they made it back to the shore without someone's help. They were probably on the beach and got to close to the water in to deep of water and the under tow took them out further and further from the shoreline. Deer to scared to probably take any kind of help too, had something happen in my fenced in garden this spring before I planted my garden. I left the gate into my garden open by mistake, I always close it. Looked out one morning and there was a 1 deer inside that couldn't find his way out, so I went outside to start to show him where the gate was, all he did was get more and more scared and trying to run full force into the inside of the fence on the other end of the garden, he was just bouncing off the fence about 5 or 6 times..........Not until enough of the force did he knock down the fence some where he was able to get out and leap over the fence. Had a little bit of blood on the fence from his head ramming into the fence. But I believe he was okay other then that because he sure ran off fast !! Trying to help a deer in anyway just gets them super riled up and scared. There is little you can do. To try to get that deer into a boat would have been bad news for the occupants on the boat, the deer would have seriously hurt them for sure and if it was a small fishing boat no where to protect themselves for sure.

Maybe contact Brown Bear Lodge in ISP: https://www.brownbearlodge.com/ kenny@brownbearlodge.com BROWN BEAR LODGE WILDLIFE EXCURSION Chichagof Island has been named “Bear Island” by National Geographic because it has the highest concentration of bears in the world at 1-2 brown bears per square mile. Brown Bear Lodge - rightly named - has a desire to share this sensational creature with you! Our flexible wildlife excursion puts the Last Frontier at your fingertips. There is no itinerary set in stone; we want you to experience wild Alaska how you would like! We encourage guests to articulate their preferences so that we can accommodate their needs on a group-by-group basis. There are many exciting things to experience, such as a brisk walk in a muskeg, a short hike for picking some of the ten varieties of edible berries found on the island, viewing an old growth forest, and coming face to face with some of the key attractions of Alaska’s wilderness - brown bears! Alaskan brown bears are most commonly seen near the streams, pulling ripe salmon out with their paws or feasting on the superfluous blueberry patches among the brush. During many tours, bears are even seen on the road! Depending on current bear movements, feeding habits, and daytime temperatures, there are short stops in key locations to scope out a magnificent view of these captivating creatures - and your Wildlife Guide knows them all. He can give you a detailed and entertaining narration about the area, from the town and the Tlingit Native population to everything you could ever want to know about brown bears. The Chichagof forests also host an array of other wildlife that are quite frequently spotted during excursions, including mink, pacific marten, red squirrels, otter, beaver, ducks and sea birds, Sitka black-tail deer, and plenty of bald eagles: so be sure to bring your camera! Brown Bear Lodge Wildlife Excursion is your best bet for a truly unique adventure. With so much area to travel, you have the chance to really get away from the crowd. If you want to separate yourself from the other tourists, have a change of pace from being packed in a boat or walking single file waiting for a chance to get a look, and want to create memories of Alaska that you will still be talking about years from now, we look forward to seeing you at Brown Bear Lodge!

Probably got a good price as we all know, it's that time of the year in the Caribbean for storms.

Grandeur was a one and done for us. Leave it at that.

Starting happy hour early today I see...................Chief's played the Charger's last night. 🤣 It's allowed though you are on vacation?😉

Not sure if it was just the audio on my TV or not but did you notice when the people talked on the network the talking didn't match their lips. Was kind of annoying and hard to watch. Like it wasn't synced up properly.

Demo Day, this Monday for our Kitchen Remodel. 🙂

We never been to the Space Needle either, we hired a tour guy for our stop in Seattle and he highly suggested the Columbia Building and skip the Space Needle. We feel we really didn't miss anything by not seeing the Space Needle...........Looking down and across from the Columbia Building past the 2 stadiums then the Space Needle looked so low and tiny in comparison to the building we were in. We were very happy we picked the Columbia Building over the Space Needle.

Bob, since you have been to Seattle before, maybe skip the crowds at the Space Needle and go up in this building. It's the taller then the Space Needle and is the tallest building in Seattle. The views are really the best from this building. Possibly you have all ready been up in? I'm sure your Wife would enjoy it. https://skyviewobservatory.com/ Columbia Center at 700 4th Avenue, Seattle WA 98104. https://skyviewobservatory.com/faq/
