Rare crusin7 Posted January 18 Author #102 Share Posted January 18 Good Morning Puerto Vallarta! Cathy and I did the Dolphin Encounter excursion. Jim passed. It was rather cool this morning. The bus had the AC cranked up. I covered up with the ships towel. Quite the fashion statement. We arrived at the facility in about 40 minutes…traffic. We did the free excursion. There were many people who did not bring bathing suits. Here is my $30 photo! WHOO HOO! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare crusin7 Posted January 18 Author #104 Share Posted January 18 We loved being with the dolphins. We were able to hug and pet them. We even danced with them. It was a great excursion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joining the happy World contingent in less than a week at San Francisco. GOARMY! 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ2002 Posted January 19 #108 Share Posted January 19 Great picture of you with the dolphin. I'd have paid $30 for that shot. Good job. Thanks for sharing all the pictures and commentary. Enjoy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crusin7 Posted January 19 Author #109 Share Posted January 19 We decided to skip our excursion and tendered in. We had to go to the theater to get a tender ticket. We waited about 10 minutes. We are the only ship in port. Welcoming Committee We ate at Captain Tony’s Table side Guacamole The freshest fish tacos See how fresh!

Rare Gilly Posted January 20 #110 Share Posted January 20 Having been following Chrisy's post here, I eagerly opened this article in this morning's Times about a very different World Cruise and knew immediately why we choose to sail with Regent. Haven't quite made it onto the full WC yet so continue to enjoy Chrisy, Jim and Cathy's adventures - thank you for sharing!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crusin7 Posted January 20 Author #111 Share Posted January 20 Hi @Gilly . Thanks for the article. Cathy has been following. We have not run out of wine but there are no bananas…unless you like them black. We have a sea day today before San Diego. We are back on PST. We arrive at 1000 and have to do a face to face with Customs and Immigration. And then the most exciting news is Jim hopefully gets his suitcase back from Luggage Forward! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I could cope with a lack of bananas as long as the wine holds out 🤣 However, I'm not sure how long I could keep smiling without part of my luggage and consider Jim's patience to be severely tested so far. I hope it is rewarded. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it is rewarded. Same here. Can’t imagine missing part/all my luggage…. Years ago when you dressed to fly, we took our 3 kids and 4 suitcases skiing for a week (Tx to Vt). Two cases, kids street clothes and our ski clothes arrived in Boston with us on Sat! The other 2, kids ski clothes and our regular clothes arrived in some little airport in Vt on Thurs afternoon. We left on Sat! What a nightmare! Since then we carry on 2/3 days worth of clothes and cross pack any cases we check! Crusin7, Hope you see your DH cases in SD! I am really enjoying your pictures. They are beautiful and really tell the story! Carolyn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crusin7 Posted January 20 Author #114 Share Posted January 20 Thank you Carolyn! Last night after dinner another surprise. Polo Shirt Today is cold and windy. Not many brave souls sitting outside for lunch. We played Bingo today and the Horizon Lounge was frigid! I saw a woman with a ski jacket and hat. I was envious! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleScout66 Posted January 21 #115 Share Posted January 21 We have the last banana in our cabin what am I bid? lol 😀 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwaj girl Posted January 21 #116 Share Posted January 21 Our polo shirts were ridiculously HUGE. Others have said the same. Apparently no extras onboard to trade for appropriate sizes. I gave my Medium to the Concierge to give to another guest that could use it. I apparently needed a Small. Maybe they can get some shipped to an upcoming port. Another guest gave her Large to my husband (his XL was like a tent!) - hopefully smaller sizes will show up at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they were allowing room for laundry shrinkage or cruise growth😀. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare crusin7 Posted January 22 Author #123 Share Posted January 22 Cathy and I did the Trolley Tour. It was nice. We had a very enjoyable guide Tiger. After almost 2 hours we got off in Old Town. We went to Cafe Coyote. It was pretty good. A Jalapeño Margarita was very good. Rain showers off and on. Seas are supposed to be a bit rough to Santa Barbara. We are praying we can tender tomorrow. It will be nice to see our family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crusin7 Posted January 22 Author #124 Share Posted January 22 Good Morning Santa Barbara! Goodbye Santa Barbara 😢. The Captain came on about 0810 to say we are unable to tender due to high winds, rain and a high pressure system. We are very disappointed. We totally understand but we are still sad. Our granddaughters were so excited. We are now on our way to San Francisco. They will revise today’s schedule. We left San Diego late yesterday 1945. We were supposed to leave at 1800. We don’t know what caused the delay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, how sorry I am that you couldn't drop into your home port 😢 I'm sure your family were eager to see you all and maybe see the ship? So disappointing. Here's hoping SF more than makes up for it.
