kaseyoz Posted July 14, 2008 #5 Share Posted July 14, 2008 It certainly is a full on cruise although the last days from singapore 12 days with only one stop looks scary especially at the end of a cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I had probs with my new computer when I went to Vista. All of those added bits and pieces on a worn in computer are gone again. The camera is a Java based system. I have just had a quick play at my XP system at work ,and can control it OK. I think my capture is similar to yours. Will try with my Vista based PC at home tonight.

NSWP Posted July 18, 2008 #16 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Are we going to get some live on board reports from those on SP? :confused: Says Les, with cruise withdrawal symptoms after only 5 days off the ship, sitting here with his cruise card around his neck, staring at his little model of Sun Princess he bought in the SP shop for $14.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSWP Posted July 19, 2008 #19 Share Posted July 19, 2008 ELA2, not cute..SAD that is what it is. Think I will put my cruise cards, - Blue, Gold, Platinum and Black in a frame, now that is SAD. Do they sell the little models of the P&O ships in the P&O ship shops, as they do on Princess? I have collected 4 so far..Star Princess, Pacific Princess, Regal Princess and Sun Princess. Other ships I have been on did not sell the little models. Tried to buy one on the Titanic..but she sank before I could get my pounds across the counter. :confused: Cheers..Les:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckiestmitw Posted July 19, 2008 #22 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Lucky! you getting one :), I was looking for one when we where on the Pacific Sun in June but they did not have any :( Hi Kiwi cruiser, Thats very unlucky...only a couple of months after ours..and our cruise was the end of April.:confused: Maybe they just ran out of stock..I thought DS would love it, something he can keep forever,great for his news day at school...''dear parents went on a cruise to the South Pacific on this wonderful ship, left us behind...BUT... bought me home this miniture version.'' We really are great parents!!:rolleyes: Next time he has news at school about cruising, he will have first hand account,only a few more months till the whole family cruises together.:D Regards Sandie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare arxcards Posted July 19, 2008 #24 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I want one like the one Nzmatt is building. Would have bought a SP one in January, but what they had was a poor comparison to the ones in Kym's pics. Seems the bigger the ship, the smaller the model.
