You got robbed.   About the worst non call ever.   The refs should be fired.    Sorry about that.

Look at all the old folks on Oceania

Thanks Cool Cruiser.  It is one thing to loose a game, but it really hurts when you loose a game because of another person.  We will overcome and come back strong next year.

We were, too!

The captain turned out the lights on Deck Ten, so we could get a better view.😎

Great pics!!  Brings back many good memories of going through the canal.  Is that a big box of fresh fish? 

It sure is....red snapper.

Served the next night.  We knew what to order. 😉

Costa Rica, nature tour from Puntarenas

[Go-Bucks!]

Love these pics! We went on a similar boat tour in Costa Rica and those crocs were everywhere! Our boat captain stood on the front of the boat and dangled a whole chicken in the air and the crocs would jump out of the water to snatch them. 🐓

I am in cabin 7008 starting in LA.  I think your cabin should be the same as ours.  Does your cabin have shelves in the bathroom to hold toiletries?  

[no fuss travel]

Enjoying the pictures.  Brings back lots of good memories.  We are starting our move towards LA.  We are packing up at our home on the island and heading for the mainland.  Seven sleeps to go till we board the plane.

unless you want to comment on the picture  just do not reply to that post

You can just delete the other photos  if you want to comment on just one of them

 

Thanks for all the feedback. I do still think that this format is not IPad or phone friendly!

The format may be lousy but the pictures that are being posted hare are really nice.  Good to see some of these places again and  great to see a few new places.  Will keep following for the next 5 months or so.

I can’t answer for that cabin, but mine has none, since it is “accessible”.

I knew this, thanks to photos from an earlier roll call, so purchased an over the door hanging storage unit at Walmart.

Works perfectly. 🙂

Thank you guys for posting such wonderful pictures! I get to escape from my desk for a few minutes everyday by looking at those wonderful pictures.

Yes there's a cabinet plus 2 small shelves

Nicaragua enters a new ‘reign of fear’ but the few tourists who come only see the many police check points. In the photos: Welcoming the ship with bands & dancers, Banana & plantaine women co-operative plantation, Old Leon & daily life

Are they having civil war again?  That would be too bad for the people.  It was peaceful when we were there 10 yrs ago, but the country's infrastructure wasn't conducive to tourism....we got a partial refund for our tour.  The best time we had was just wandering around San Juan del Sur...they have a large expat population and cute little shops and a pretty church.

We hold Nicaragua near and dear to our hearts as one of our most favorite warm weather get-aways. We were also there about 10 years ago, It would be so sad if it became politically impossible to travel there. 

 

Thanks for the pictures.

Daniel Ortega believes his dictatorship is threatened. Unrest started April 2018. About 300 killed, 500 arrested, radio stations and newspapers threatened and shut down. I was in San Juan del Sur in January 2017. Enjoyed it then. Would not want to be there now.

Sea day & my savior Christina the concierge who solved in seconds a problem Oceania's head office was clueless about.

Bon Temp Rollette! There are 2 small shelves on one wall with bar to keep them sliding of.  There are 3 small selves below and to the side of the sink and there is a good sized medicine/toiletry cabinet behind the mirror over the sink.  They also already have a good hair drier.  It is small, especially the shower but okay. Look me up once you are onboard.  I was hoping for some Saints fans for the Superbowl but, some blind referees blew that!

Yes it is... We ordered the fish later and it was delicious.

Ilsun, What kind of camera and lens are you using.  Your photos are beautiful.
