Rare rafinmd Posted October 21, 2023 #4458 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I've seen the 2 ships together a few times and visited the other ship occasionally. The last time was in Grand Turk about 4 years ago. I was on Symphony at the time. Their dock holds only 2 ships and Carnival owns the port so their subsidiary HAL's Nieuw Amsterdam had priority for one of the berths. Since Serenity has azipods and can do dynamic positioning Symphony got the dock. First an overview: And closer a view of just the 2 Crystal ships: Roy 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayonejoe Posted October 21, 2023 #4459 Share Posted October 21, 2023 That was the 2018 WC. Both ships did the WC that year and they met in Sydney. we were on Symphony and it was a wonderful sail out.

One of the things we really liked about Silver Moon is La Dolce Vita lounge obviated the problem, as we always went from our room to that lounge before dinner! 🙂 7 hours ago, comas said: Serenity following Symphony ~ Sydney harbour ~ also February 2018. I believe this was a rare occasion when the sisters were in Sydney together. That was the 2018 WC when both ships did a different version of the WC and met in Sydney for a gala. We were on Symphony and it was a wonderful sail out. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 22, 2023 #4460 Share Posted October 22, 2023 A couple of years later, March 2020, after we got off Serenity in Sydney. After spending a week in Sydney, a few days on Long Island, returned home to the nightmare that would await with almost no food in the grocery store.

Rare rafinmd Posted October 25, 2023 #4468 Share Posted October 25, 2023 A number of my trips have evolved from something I missed in a prior trip. In 2007 I sailed Silversea Rome to Dubai and got document too late to visit the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. A couple years later I filled that gap by booking a Nile River cruise but missed out on a tour to Alexandria I the day before the tour started. When Serenity had a nice tour visiting Alexandria in 2010 I booked it, followed by another med cruise on the Wind Surf, and QM2 back home from Southampton. This is the sunrise our last day in Alexandria, October 25, 2010. Roy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 26, 2023 #4469 Share Posted October 26, 2023 As many times as we have transited the Panama Canal we always enjoy the day. Each time is unique in its own way. Even the weather makes a difference. Keith 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Keith1010 Posted October 28, 2023 #4473 Share Posted October 28, 2023 First stop on the first World Cruise we took was Jamaica. We were surprised.
