Any Majestic Pincess thoughts for Australian Cruisers.....

[MicCanberra]

Hi Mic, we met you and Rosie ( and your brother ?)... with Gai on the Solstice a while ago.... we were still in Adelaide then, we are near Canberra now.... where are you off to next? :)

 

 

cheers

That explains why I was a bit confused, I recognised the name but not from nr Canberra. We are on the Ovation of the Seas out of Hong Kong in May for our next one, it goes to Japan (the others are in my sig block).

You should join us at the Cruisers meet ups we have in Canberra. Go to FB and look for ACT Cruisers. We meet on the 2nd Saturday of the month at the Canberra Yacht club (Southern Cross club) Yarralumla.

Yes Mic, we are just at Yass, so we can pop into Yarralumla no worries, we are always in and out to Canberra, its only half an hour or so.... I will join up that ACT group..thanks for that!

Hi there Thorpe, we did the same,booked those same cabins on Emerald on the first day the bookings were open, we have 2 cabins.... see you onboard!, are you on the rollcall?...

 

 

 

cheers S&D :)

 

 

 

Hi, not on roll call. Have had a look there occasionally, but because the Sth Pacific is virtually a local cruise I didn’t feel the need to join, and it’s a short cruise. But I’ll pop on over and have another read [emoji3]

You deserve a medal, my grandies are 8, 10, 12, 14, 20. (years old.) I still need a vallium and a double scotch when they visit.:o

 

That is why we go overseas for 3 months every year, lol.

I think the cruise was back in March 2013, but I think they were still in Adelaide at that stage.:D

Love our one to bits but she does cramp our cruising style somewhat. Don't want to leave for too long so limited to shorter trips.

And a few red cordials just before you hand them back.;p

Yep, don't want to miss them growing up but still want to cruise as well. It is a juggling act.

Just booked on the Majestic in October. I see we have to pay for the excursions at the time of booking. Is that normal now on all Princess ships.

I thought they gave you the option when booking, to pay now or on the cruise.

No, there was no mention of it when we booked,so hoping we get some info on that when we pay the final payment in couple of months...
