Is anyone blogging this cruise that can be followed by those of us traveling vicariously with you all? Last year I was able to follow an excellent one and really enjoyed “checking in”. Thanks!

We are not the Neptune, but if interested, my signature has a link to my blog for our current WC adventures on the Sky...

Is anyone planning a meet and greet once we all board in LA? I can definitely head it up. It could be on our first sea day after Santa Barbara. Can someone get me the contact info of the CD so I can see if she will coordinate it or who I need to coordinate it with?

TIA

Diana

I’ll try to speak with CD today. What’s a good way to contact you other than here?

Whoever the mods are for this: can you please add the date to the post:
LIVE from the Viking Neptune World Cruise includes FTL and LA 23/24?

Thanks!

Now that Christmas is over we are ready....  Our bags are in LA and all we have to do is pull Bama through in the playoffs.  Roll Tide!!  Hope to have a celebratory martini at the Atrium Bar as we get settled in with all the rest of the World Cruisers.🍸

Cheers🥂

I cannot seem to find the link to your blog.  I'd love to follow along since we'll be on the Sky next year for the WC.

I gave the CD you email address and the 'particulars' of the meet and mingle you want to organize. What is your cabin number? If I pass that along she may be able to track you down easier.

It is official. Delay in Panama caused us the stop in Costa Rica. We now have 5 sea days in a row until Cabo San Lucas...

We had something similar happen - a medical emergency diversion caused us to miss Cabo (or rather, just stop there for a few hours to drop off and pick up crew members).

If that was the Panama Canal April 22 I was on that trip as well.

Exactly. We stayed on until Vancouver. The medevac in Puerto Vallarta was right underneath my cabin.

 

Now back to regularly scheduled program.

 Neptune sails thru Gatun Locks, pool roof open. Nice sunny day. See everyone on the Pacific side.

See a couple screen shots from the Viking Bridge camera. The Viking Voyager App is a great way to see the ship’s progress through the locks without the crowds at the bow.
