Live from the Navigator: Happy 20th Birthday!

[RJ2002]

Not a full live blog, but wanted to share some pictures from tonight’s Seven Seas Society reception - which also commemorated Navigator’s 20th birthday. 

 

CD Ray and Captain Atanas paid tribute, and recognized three crew members who were aboard 20 years ago, including GM Franck. 

 

Only 12 passengers aboard our Amsterdam to NY sailing (final segment of the Grand Arctic Quest) are first time Regent guests. One couple received their Diamond Level (+1000 nights) pin. 

 

Service and cuisine outstanding.

We're going to be on the Navigator, so if you write more I'll be looking forward to whatever your write.  Hope you do write more, but enjoy your cruise and time at sea.

What fun to celebrate this anniversary!  We have had two lovely cruises on the Navigator - great little ship!!

We are doing the opposite itinerary on Navigator next year (NYC to Dublin).  Also interested in anything you want to write about this cruise especially Greenland and Iceland.   Have a great cruise!

Looking forward to any reports you want to share with us. My first time on Navigator was 19 years ago, glad to see she's still ticking! Cruising on her in November, cat wait. Have a great cruise!

"Ditto" to both Cruiseluv and Hambagahle!  We'll (again) be on Navigator in less than 2 months and are very much looking forward to riding on her again!

RJ2002, we are on the Navigator, and don't remember seeing you at the Meet and Mingle on the 2nd day of the cruise.  Please contact us in 518, and we'll try to get together for lunch or dinner on the two sea days coming up.

 

We hope you enjoyed Nuuk, Greenland.  We certainly did!

 

Joan and Joe Mach, on the Navigator now.

May I ask what you did in Nuuk?  We will be there next summer. 

[Joanandjoe]

We took the home visit and short walk, and enjoyed our hostess's songs, cakes, and stories very much.  The walking tour ended at the shuttle stop; but we took a walk from there.  Joan found some bargains at the local shopping mall:  10 items for 5 kroner each. Fun.

 

The shuttle has more than one stop, so we could have stayed in Nuuk for awhile, rather than choosing to go back to the ship.  I wouldn't have expected to be docked in Greenland; but we were.  I'm not a big fan of tenders.  Joe

Just revisiting this thread. We didn’t attend the M&M, and sorry we didn’t get a chance to meet up - maybe next time!  Hope you enjoyed the cruise as much as we did. 

[Joanandjoe]

We certainly had a wonderful time. Thanks.  J & J

We are two of the first time Regent Cruisers on this Cruise. Really enjoyed the experience, great food - better that Oceania which feels that it is the best food on a Cruise ship!

Crew very good and very well looked after, pleased that we have four more booked.
