At least Navigator hasn't been maxed out with passengers so that should help with the lines waiting for the tenders. We are leaving on Navigator next Wednesday. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are about an hour from our hotel in Stafford, Va. Much better day with traffic, thank goodness! We're ready to get out of the car! We always stay at Staybridge Suites here on our way home. Thank you for asking.🥰 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George C Posted April 20, 2022 #54755 Share Posted April 20, 2022 3 hours ago, HBE4 said: Funny, I didn't want to get married until I was at least 30. I caved at the tender age of 29 and got married in 1993. But in all fairness, I had been dating my future bride for 7 years and known her for a total 9 years (2 of those years where in the "friend zone") so we were pretty much married anyways. She was 34 at the time of our wedding but it was her 2nd marriage, the first was in her very early 20's. I used to tease her that she was the "original" cougar since she was 5 years older than me and it wasn't fair that she got two weddings and I only had one. 😉 My brother told his children do not get married until your 30, he said he waited to 30 , our dad was 30 or older and so was most of my uncles and I was in my40’s , he told this story at his daughters wedding. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came home with a bunch of different bottles of booze. Eric's says it was like me going to a shoe sale😁 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bobmacliberty Posted April 20, 2022 #54757 Share Posted April 20, 2022 One of the first things I did when I got home this week was buy a bottle of Kraken. Made a dark n stormy like drink. Still delicious. What other Kraken drinks (non-frozen) would you suggest Greg? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never enjoyed having to do tenders. Always awkward to get on and off plus the lines to wait and that wasn't even large ships. The wife of one of my friends broke an ankle going from a tender to a ship. I was only on a tender once ,a family cruise with my grandkids and I went on the tender because I was with them.It was a very windy day and I barely made it back into the ship. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was relatively recent....sometime between 2017 and 2019. Reason given was that there was no dock space due to many ships calling there that day. Tender boats took us straight downtown. They used shoreside tenders not the lifeboats. That may have been one of the cruises I was on with you.I did not get off the ship . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were at least a couple of Royal ship there, and some people could not get back on their ship and had to board the other Royal ship. Since then I try to avoid tenders, if possible. Will be on one in Bar Harbor at the end of may, but hopefully all will be well there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
