Where do you get the warnings?

Trip to Cobh was a bit choppy but not too bad. There have been no announcements.

You may not have noticed, but, Shogun lives in Scotland. So, probably the local weather forecast. :cool:

We disembarked on August 1st and the ship was overcome by the noro virus. People were sick on the rugs in elevators and hallways. There is no way it was sanitized in a 5 hrs it was turned over. Nurse told me on Le Harve day that they had 200 sick thAt day. At that point it's was our 3rd day with code red. People were violently ill on the busses to the airport.

Oh my! And if they succeeded in making their flights, chances are that everyone in their section of the plane is going to get sick too! And then it continues....

Hi All

The buses that took the sick folks to the airport also brought new victims to the ship, so deep cleaning the ship will not break the infection cycle

How are you feeling? I hope you didn't catch it!

Something strange going on here. We were supposed to dock in Dublin at 5:00 AM but it is now 5:30 and we are sailing South, away from port. No announcements and no one is talking. The ship's position map on the TV shows Liverpool as next port.

Hi Dublin is a hard port to get into due to tides and wind, ships often late getting in having to wait for right conditions weather is very nasty for today

Hi All

Yours Shogun

We are skipping Dublin and headed to Liverpool for an overnight stay and will leave Liverpool tomorrow at 6 pm. The Captain says we should be docked at 4 pm today in Liverpool. I guess they made the decision at 3 am this morning due to wind conditions then and what was predicted during the day. Apparently the Royal has to go into Dublin backwards for 6 miles as she is too large to turn around once inside the channel so onto Liverpool instead .....

It is what it is, so just have to enjoy the sea day and look forward to the overnight in Liverpool.

Shogun · August 4, 2015

Hi

Thanks for update

I started this thread in that I suspected you would miss Dublin

First time I was there we had only a couple of hours

Next time a half day

The third time I got a full day

Liverpool is a great port of call to overnight in, hope passengers make the most of it and sample the local night life.

Greenock is a safe port so even if weather bad you will get in. Might pop over to wave you off, sail away is good so be on deck for it.

yours Shogun

As we will be boarding in a few weeks in Southampton, all of the posts from folks onboard are very interesting to me, and i am sure many others who soon to cruise on the Royal…..Safe journey to all of you.

I cannot imagine boarding an aircraft suffering with any kind of gastric distress. Bad enough if it's only me; unthinkable with others having the same malady
