Rare spinnaker2 Posted December 13, 2021 Author #129 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Today is St Kitts. Breakfast in the room early as DH going to a private session with Hercules the on board trainer. The session was arranged by the HD, the masterful Jimmy and Begonia of cruise guest relations. The crew and officers of the Whisper have gone to great lengths to make DH comfortable! Amazing group of people. On the starboard side we face the Crystal Symphony. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impeccable service as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare spinnaker2 Posted December 14, 2021 Author #133 Share Posted December 14, 2021 After breakfast we got off the ship for the second time since we boarded. This morning a face to face in San Juan in the terminal. Some strong men to get DH in wheelchair down and up the ramp. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare spinnaker2 Posted December 15, 2021 Author #135 Share Posted December 15, 2021 We can not say enough about the fabulous crew. They have been more than attentive to us. We are grateful for them. Loving the sea days as we approach the end of this cruise. While we once were able to sit by the pool and imbibe alcoholic beverages and chat or sunbathe for the day, we can no longer do that. Just our season in life now for different things. We have not ventured too far from our suite too often. In the past few days it has been a little rough for a guy to manage a contraption with wheels, even though it has brakes, it tends to want to roll too far too fast. We did enjoy the final sail away from San Juan with the bottle juggling by the bar staff. Basic fun stuff to watch, nothing too pithy or mind expanding, just another skill set of the talented crew. We have not been to the deck parties or the shows or lectures or demonstrations or trivia. I did not know who the CD was until yesterday, although I have heard his voice. Once I saw him I remembered him from another cruise. The food has been very good. DH enjoys the sushi for lunch almost every day! We have not requested any special meals to be prepared by the Chef although we know that has been an option in the past with 24 hours notice. We have been able to find food to our taste and liking from the available menus. One may order from the Restaurant and have it served course by course in your suite on the Whisper. We have had many meals in our suite, to include breakfast, which is waiting for us every day when we wake up. The best! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare spinnaker2 Posted December 16, 2021 Author #137 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Last day flurry of activity. The dreaded packing day. Nose swab. Cruise consultant. Time change. Trying frantically to absorb all of the Silversea ambiance. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to hear you are back home, safe and sound. Maybe rested and relaxed? Super loved the various pictures, the video, etc. Wonderful sharing!! Let us know any added perspectives from sailing under these current conditions, rules, how staff and passengers are adapting and surviving, etc. THANKS! Enjoy!

Rare spinnaker2 Posted December 21, 2021 Author #149 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I am still struggling with being back on land. Missing the ship with her gentle rocking, the sound of the ocean wind as we cut through the waves, the foamy sea spray that washes over the hull, the turquoise wake we leave behind. Until the next cruise I will try and keep these memories fresh in my mind’s eye and hope they are vivid enough to sustain me!. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can do it. I have had to do so since late January, 2020. Reading my journals and viewing my photos for the upteenth time helps keep the memories alive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
