I have watched this channel, pretty much bing-watched the first year , till the put the boat in dry dock to complete the restoration. As an engineer I was impressed with his approach to the project down to spread sheets detailingwhat we need to do, and like to do but cannot afford. They got to a point where they needed more money, and were going to stop working on the boat to go do work the get paid for doing. At that point, the joind the Patreon program, which allows people to become patrons of the channel. I then skipped forward to the segment where the boat took a lightening strike. As he analyzed what needed to be replaced, When Colin said he was going to put his Amazon order. That set the tone where financially they had come.

The next 2 years on Millennium from BCN, then Century again BCN, the we switched from Celebrity to Navigator for our first B2B , eastern Med plus TA to Fl. Stayed with Royal after that.

I really like westbound TA's , but the ones that go there usually are going to the Northeast for the fall leaf season. The Connie cruise left Dover, UK for NYC. We were living in Ct at the time, so it was handy for us. Not so much now. But, never say never. WE did our first eastbound in 2019. DW said I want to go on a cruise. I said "Hey look, how about TPA to AMS", only a month or so before the cruise. No planning, just go. Had a great time.

Just got back from my radiation appointment. Thursdays, the Dr checks my progress, and he was impressed with the progress with the lumps decrease in size. Tuesda they will do scan, and he expects a big reduction in the power of the radiation to concentrate on eradicating the cancer. Now eating what I can, supplemented by PEG tube feedings.

My experience, sadly, is the people that answer the phones are the last to know anything.

RCI has people identified as lifeguards by the pools and when not crowded I have seen them practicing getting disabled swimmers out of the pool and administering lifesaving attention. The will have a sign indicating they are training. Does that make them not real.
