If so, are you planning to go on all 4 legs or just 1 or more and which one/s? Thanks for taking us along on this cruise! Individual legs still cannot be booked...unfortunately. 😞 Was supposed to be last December, but now advertised as this month...though no idea which day this month...if at all. Next cruise on this ship said they would call me if they hear anything. But I am not holding my breath. I know everything from JS and up is already booked, and even balconies are starting to get scarce. John and Laura are on for the whole trip.

It took them a couple tries to get the ropes adjusted right but its still quite a workout. Definitely do this before eating or drinking and not after. I'm thinking a couple shots of (your choice) before doing it would enhance the experience. 😵 Edited February 5, 2022 by davekathy 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m always interested in the history of older ships. I thought the ship looked familiar and reading her history, I saw why. She was Sea Escape. I never sailed on Sea Escape. She was was popular for short, very short cruises. Lots of advertising, and probably most of the passengers were tourists vacationing in Florida and jumping on the chance for an inexpensive cruise. I can’t imagine tourists going to the Southern Caribbean and taking time out of their island time to go on a super short cruise. No wonder she sits and waits.

Worker bees in full covering bringing in materials. There were walkers/runners on deck in the morning, plus activity at night, and plenty on deck to watch us sail out late last night. Supposedly a training venue for the Church. Now I get it. It is strictly for Scientologists! Better than going on the beach. I guess!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of wet towels. Rain stopped, but still lots of clouds. Big fluffy ones. Good time for Northstar Look, a zamboni😉🤣🤣 The name plate is under the punk duck Oh, and I booked a massage for the afternoon. The things I have to do to review a ship is mind boggling. 😇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Meyers are a branch of my family, and all of my family lives in Papenburg except for the descendants of my grandparents. They came to NY in 1909, and everyone else stayed in Papenburg. My cousin Bernhard headed up Meyer Werft (Works in English) but like me, he’s getting old. Probably retired now. They stay very busy, probably because they build good ships. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdylady Posted February 5, 2022 #971 Share Posted February 5, 2022 If I may, I have a couple more questions. 1- Can you tell me which pier the Odyssey docks at in Port Everglades? 2- did the do the Love and marriage show (I know old and cheesey, but we always like it. 3- According to some port site websites, they are showing the Feb 12 sailing as having arrival time on 2/16 in Curaçao at noon instead of listed 8am. What time did you arrive in Curaçao? thanx again for all your fantastic pictures and hints and suggestions. I know they will help us make the most of our sailing.
