Well we took two grandchildren (8&9)on an Alaska Cruise in June and they spent a lot of time in the outdoor pool even on some rainy days! That certainly did not stop them. The water was not as cold as we had imagined it to be. We did come back to the ship early on a sunny day and they had the pool to themselves for awhile. Our grandson was in the pool nearly every day. We did not visit the solarium even once.

Thank heavens for some nice tailwinds on your flight from HNL-LAX. That’s a long haul from Sidney to LAX via Honolulu. I’m amazed you were able to write this update so well and with some humor thrown in. My body feels tired for you!!! Thank you for your wonderful reporting and sharing of your cruise. By now you should be safely home and sleeping in your own bed!

Last year on the Beyond Transatlantic we did all three of these evacuations. We backtracked to get close enough to Bermuda for the coast guard to come out by boat. We also backtracked to Gibraltar for an air evac.

Things may be rundown but what I like is to see the simple life how it really is. The people are generally happy and proud living with what they have. Not all of Fiji are the beautiful resorts that you see in photos and cater to the rich tourists.- 868 replies

When we were on the Beyond in Feb Capt Kate made an evacuation around midnight. She came on the speaker into the staterooms to announce it. Something she rarely does that late at night. We saw the helicopter lights off our veranda on the aft before the announcement was made. She said the Beyond’s helicopter pad is too small. They did the evacuation off the side of the ship. Probably the lawn Club.

I’ll second that for the Sunset. There is just nothing like the relaxing view watching the wake. Added bonus extra steps on your Fitbit!

Cairns: How to do the Skyrail/train combo if arriving by ship?
mauimary replied to fstuff1's topic in Australia & New Zealand
Thank you Triplem67. I actually did look at your Roll Call for the Feb 25 Edge. It was quite helpful and you were very helpful. There was lots of info on it. At that time j was looking to get from Arlie Beach to the Whitsunday’s on Celebrity tight schedule and following your roll call on how you tried to get it all to come together. -

We enjoyed following along with you. It looked like a fun cruise and I’m sure you loved all the warm days and sun. A very nice break from winter. Glad you finally got your cruise cards. That was quite the challenge. Sometimes ours have been delivered but on our last cruise they were not and we forgot about it until we were at the airport. Safe travels back to Norwayand hope your ✈️ is smooth Will your cruise with the Queen be o. Celebrity? Mary -

Ours is acting like it’s not correct either. I was logged in on the app this am which usually stays but this time it did not. -

Does anyone know if there is a shuttle from Yorkeys Knob to Cairns? We will be overnight on Celebrity so it makes my options easier. Where is the drop off? I’m looking at some independent excursions. -

We have been all over the Caribbean numerous times but somehow none of our cruises has stopped in Martinique. I’m glad you tried to make a go of it. Definitely underwhelming when everything is closed. I had to chuckle on your wanting to learn mahjong and bridge. Seems roll calls we have been involved with are always looking for players. Thank you for all your daily posts and photos. Really enjoying them. -

It can be hard to find things as this novel has many pages to go through before they begin the actual cruise!
