ABQrobin Posted February 19, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2020 We just got back this past weekend from cruise on the Carnival Conquest. At Roatan, my DH went diving and I just hung out at port. One thing I did was finally ride the Flying Chairs! It was actually much more fun than I thought, really beautiful views and smooth ride. Unfortunately it was windy that day. my video: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mitsugirly Posted February 20, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Great video Robin. I always said if I make it back there I would ride them instead of walking. Looks like a beautiful and peaceful ride with great views along the way. Wait...you didn't go diving with the DH?!? Say what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its okay, I have been cutting way back in past few years knowing that I would eventually be stopping. Its hardest on Ron as he no longer has a buddy, and we have been diving together since we both got certified back 20 yrs ago. We have 500+ dives together and so now he has to dive with strangers and its totally different. We always made a great buddy team. So he is still diving for now... just without me. He took my GoPro underwater on his dives, shot stills with his TG-5 and video with GoPro5, so I will have some underwater video to edit. Hope your health is better, too. Take care of yourself.

Aww, I'm so sad Robin. :( Yea, I can't imagine diving together that long and not have your diving buddy with you anymore. I'm glad you will still get to participate in the editing of the videos. I'm looking forward to them! You have always been such a great help to us with our diving. At least you will still be able to contribute to us novice wanna be divers (and others of course). lol I'm improving day by day and grateful to be out of my wheelchair now and I was so excited when I was able to dive in December on our cruise. I really didn't think I would be able to after my injury but it was the best day ever. I would have been so sad if it didn't work out. I'm planning my next dive in St Thomas coming up and just trying to decide where to go and who to dive with. Take care Robin and I'll see you around on the boards and hopefully with more video's from you Ron and yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happywhencruising Posted July 26, 2021 #10 Share Posted July 26, 2021 How long is the walk from pier to beach? I don't think I would enjoy chairlift ( i don't like heights!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrtx2 Posted November 9, 2021 #11 Share Posted November 9, 2021 So the ship docks, and are the magic lifts right there or do you actually walk uphill to get to them. I can get a grasp of the layout with the video seeming to go downhill but also right past ship too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the price? Not as much next to the port as much as part if the Mahogany Bay Cruise Port Complex. The chairs and a path are from the shopping area to the beach. There is a map on the web site mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
