Great to hear from Lois that "things" on the Silver Spirit are going so super well!! Wonderful news. Love, as you have time, to learn more details about these wonderful ports and locations you will be visiting.

THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio

Thanks for checking in Lois! Enjoy your adventure!

Really good to hear that you're having fun Lois.....we've all be wondering about you...!!

Keep enjoying and we look forward to a full report when you get back.....😊

Whew! She lives! So very happy you're having a great cruise.

Enjoy your cruise! It is a lovely ship and agree it was welcoming as a solo traveler. Only real problem was my weight gain primarily due to champagne consumption!

Good for you! Keep livin' the dream.

Lois, glad to hear you are on board and already enjoying the voyage.

Have a great time.

Keith

Lois, great to hear you're having a lovely time. If the international hostess, also in charge of solos, continues to be Monea you will be in for a treat. Enjoy!

For those who did not to get see or know the full schedule for Lois on the Silver Spirit, it is listed below. In my view this is a wonderful, creative schedule by Silversea that is somewhat different than just the "usual suspects" of Med port stops. That is why I look forward at a future time to hearing more when Lois has time about the port details, her surprises, special sights, tips for others to consider, etc.

Fernando is aboard! What a treat.

Enjoy.

Fernando is a gem. His language classes are lots of fun. Would you please ask him whether he will be on the Muse in Montreal. Please give him regards from Victoria and Bob.

Is Fernando a "designated substitute CD" or is he now the Spirit's more or less regular CD? I was under the impression that vacation time notwithstanding that Moss Hills was the CD. ????

Very good question. Moss Hills is overworked! I trust he is enjoying a restful vacation. He was stressed while in our TA last November, and it noticed...

Nothing against Moss Hills or Fernando but my wife would be thrilled if Collin Brown somehow got the Spirit for our cruise. It seemed like for years Collin was the permanent resident CD on the Wind or at least he was for our first three cruises on the Wind. Then on our last Wind cruise he wasn't and supposedly or maybe was on the Cloud.

I'm going to be in Ibiza in a few months. Hope you can tell us what you and others did during your day there in terms of organized tours. Or do you need a tour there? Maybe you can just go on your own? Thanks. LittleRedJohn

Colin was on my TA on the Wind last November.

Adam Wright was our CD on the Wind a few months earlier. I think I read here that Adam was on the Whisper later on in 2016. Maybe they're moving CDs around more than I got the impression they used to?

So far, no idea who will be our CD on Wind's TA this November.
