Orator Posted December 22, 2022 #13 Share Posted December 22, 2022 I just returned home from TA on Viking Neptune. It was just a wonderful experience due to crew and my fellow passengers. I wish those sailing on calm seas and a trip of their lifetime! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckySt Posted December 22, 2022 #14 Share Posted December 22, 2022 After a 2.5 hour delay due to a Coast Guard inspection, we have finally boarded and are in our cabin. This definitely calls for champagne on the balcony! 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deec Posted December 23, 2022 #19 Share Posted December 23, 2022 This will be a trip of a lifetime. We were on the Inaugural WC....Please embrace every moment and flow with the disappointments.....It was incredible...we woke everyday and were so excited to be someplace that would awe us or just hanging out on an incredible ship! The crew, the officers, the ship, old friends( we traveled with 2 other couples), new friends, the ports and cultures, the lectures that opened our minds and taught us so much........people sharing their lives with us. I would love to do another but I am afraid the next one could not be a wonderful as our experience was on the Viking SUN. Thank you Viking! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you’ve been “grandfathered in” (sounds better than being called a lurker) after all the time and attention you’ve paid to this roll call. It’s been fun and we feel much better prepared for this cruise by reading your advice and that of the other experienced world cruisers. Thank you so much for keeping us informed and entertained! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many wonderful things to embrace. And sometimes the disappointments brought new joys. I wish I was with you again, on the Neptune! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
