[Lois R]

Good morning friends....going for a hair cut later and I have 2 coupons to Bed, Bath and Beyond...love that store

Made my final payment for my Oct river cruise

 

Have a good day all!

Well that’s curious. A couple of months ago our entire voyage (17th June, Muse) suddenly went from lots of availability to none whatsoever overnight and has shown as waitlist ever since. Having just looked now it’s suddenly opened up again all cats from vista to Deluxe verandah. Most peculiar.

For our July 25, 2019, Silver Muse sailing, the Silversea website does go twistingly up and down as to being all wait-listed, versus having avails in many different cabin categories.  Yesterday, it said ALL was on wait-list.  Right now, this morning, it showed avails in eight of the nine categories.  Strange and confusing??!!

 

THANKS!  Enjoy!  Terry in Ohio

Terry...the exact same "Waitlist" to availability happened 2 days ago on the Muse's June 17 Vancouver to Vancouver.  From being waitlisted for over a month suddenly 6 categories opened up, 5 still available this evening.  I was wondering if Rest Assured insurance kicked in for  a number of folks over weather predictions.

Hello all, I hope you dont mind me joining in here.

Its interesting to read about the many cruises being waitlisted on and off, we booked our cloud 22nd July cruise in February, at the time, guarantee vista suite was only available, and everything else was waitlisted. I check regularly but still no cabin allocated, however different categories continually come back as available, currently silver suite and deluxe verandah suite, but tomorrow will be nothing or something completely different. The not knowing is driving me crazy....

[Daveywavey70]

Hi Gogo, you are very welcome here. For Our sailing for tomorrow we were down s GTY since we booked several months ago. It was exactly 2 weeks to the day that they allocated the cabins and changed us from a vista to a verandah. Patience is a virtue 🙂

Enjoy your trip!

Thanks Daveywavey, ill keep checking everyday....I dont really mind where I am, it is what it is, however it does play games with you when cabin availability changes so rapidly!

[Daveywavey70]

I Know exactly what you mean. I was worrying when 5 categories became waitlisted overnight several months ago that it was a large group. it stayed waitlist for months and  It’s only 48 hours before sailing that all 5 opened  up again.

Good morning and HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all the Dads, Grandads, Step-dads, and whatever other wonderful folks who are in that very special category.  My Dad was my best friend and I think of him every day and miss him all the time. Thankfully my memories are sweet and good

 

Here is some information about the day

https://www.history.com/topics/holidays/fathers-day

 

And of course of few images

 

 

I remember as a kid,  I made a hand print for my Dad.

 

 

[Lois R]

If I may, as the daughter, I want to say Dad's and Daughters have a special bond...well, in my case it was very special....he was my hero, my best friend and got me involved in my love of sports...football, baseball, golf....he loved this day as the US OPEN always falls on Father's Day Sunday

 

A few Dad/Daughter images...……

 

 

 

The last one......dad and his daughter watching tv together...…..we did that when I was a kid.....

Happy father's day!

This happened to me on my Galapgos cruise next year.  Then I get a phone call to say that my cruise was cancelled as a travel agency had chartered the whole ship.  So instead of celebrating my birthday in the Galapagos, I'll be 'celebrating'(?!) on board a plane instead.

Appreciate these good wishes on Father's Day!!  Great day to celebrate before tomorrow being our 47th wedding anniversary.  Lots of partying??!!  Was down recently in Charlottesville, Va., for time with our son and the two grandsons.  Below are pictures of them.  They are growing up FAST!!  The youngest will be seven in late July.  The other is now age eight.  As shown, they are reading and doing very well. It's fun being a grandfather!!

 

THANKS!  Enjoy!  Terry in Ohio

Hi Terry, very handsome grandsons!!!! Nice to see them reading a "real book"

 

I keep forgetting you have family in Charlottesville...….whenever I think of that area, you know what comes to mind...….

 

Hope everyone has a good day.....the golf comes on at 2.  I will be watching.

Appreciate the kind comments on our "handsome grandsons".  I give the credit to the genes from my wife and our son's wife. Yes, the U.S. Open TV coverage starts at 2 pm EDT.  BUT, the top six players will not be teeing off until between 5-5:30 pm EDT.  That's when I will tune in for the excitement of watching those incredible setting at Pebble Beach.  So super scenic!!!  Plus, the golf action should be very, very good.  

 

THANKS!  Enjoy!  Terry in Ohio

Mysty, where do you get these from? They are not good for a coffee/keyboard interface.

Mind you, on our recent Wind voyage, one day the fish at lunch was labelled "Sh*te fish". It was actually rather tasty.
