To keep your "eye" on the construction, see SkyCam North - Galveston, TX. Use the Full screen feature in the lower right corner for a little bit closer view.

So sorry to be late in seeing your post! ☹️ Have been recuperating for a few days due to eye surgery. One down, one to go in July. Thanks to @cruisemom42 for pointing you to the Roll Call thread for your cruise! Just click the bolded thread title over the February 19, 2021 thread start date in her post to go directly to the thread. I see there have been lots of posts. As I said before, just read the whole thread then post an introductory post. That's how you "join" the Roll Call by posting on the thread. I feel sure you will then receive welcoming replies from your fellow Cruise Critic members sailing with you.

Howdy @BarbRN Thank you for your new thread on the Ask a Cruise Question forum. 👍 It is the forum for general questions regarding cruising. However, your thread is off topic there since there is a whole forum regarding your topic. To help you out, your thread has been moved to the Cruise/Travel Insurance forum where it will be on topic. Browse through thread titles here on this forum and l👀k for titles of interest. You will probably find your fellow Cruise Critic members have already posted questions and received answers that will be of interest to you.

Or... it could be a link on the Censored List. From the Guidelines: Question: Why don't you allow us to post about other cruise sites? My post contains *** and then you removed it! Answer: Actually, we do allow the legitimate linking to information at another cruise site, as long as that link isn't posted in an attempt to drive traffic to that site (in the sole discretion of Cruise Critic), or if the posting of such site is meant to cause disruption within the community. If a website's url or name is replaced by a series of *****, it may mean that particular website had spammed our community with advertisements for their site, or that member(s) may have posted in a way that we consider self-promotion or advertising. And no, I do not know what other things might trigger the feature. And also from the Guidelines: Discussion of the management of this community is not allowed on the forums. Therefore, this thread is closed.

Thanks! So far, good. Now it is one down, one to go. Will be in July right before my birthday. What a present!

Howdy @termin8or13 Thank you for your new thread on the Ask a Cruise Question forum. 👍 It is the forum for general questions regarding cruising.

Your thread titled Does anyone else have to log in every single time? has been moved to the correct forum and then merged into an existing thread regarding the same topic. That way, @CC Help Jenn will be aware since she is following this thread.

Howdy! Typo corrected per your request. Happy sails, Host Kat

Howdy @KEsurfer Thank you for your new thread on the Ask a Cruise Question forum. 👍 It is the forum for general questions regarding cruising. However, your thread was off topic there since your topic concerns a specific Port of Call. To help you out, your thread has been moved to the Ports of Call - Caribbean - Costa Maya forum where it will be on topic. The majority of your fellow Cruise Critic members that have been there frequent this forum and provide feedback here. Please browse through the thread titles here on this forum and l👀k for titles of interest.

Howdy @Flowers4me Welcome to the Cruise Critic message boards and thank you for your first new thread! 👍 Cruise Critic is a great resource for new as well as experienced cruisers and we are so glad you are posting on the boards! Please feel free to browse the Cruise Critic Community Categories list. Read a few threads in the different forums to get a feel for what each forum is about. Make sure you read any pinned threads (aka Stickies) on the top of the first page of threads in a forum. You will find very important instructions or information there. Browse through the thread titles on the forums l👀king for threads of interest. See the Cruise Critic article Top 8 Things You Can Do on the Cruise Critic Message Boards to Enhance Your Cruise. As cruisemom42 states, you need to research the following Ports of Call forums: Mediterranean - Eastern & Western Africa & Middle East Again, browse through the thread titles l👀king for threads of interest. You will probably find your fellow Cruise Critic members have already posted questions and received answers that will be of interest to you. Please remember the following stated in the Guidelines we all agreed to follow when registering for our free Cruise Critic memberships: Browse Before You Post Browse a topic first to see if your question has already been asked or answered by someone else. Also, many of the major cruise lines forums have a FAQ (Frequently Asked Question) topic that has been created by our members. Give that a try first. Browsing is your #1 best resource! Please post your messages in an appropriate topic so that you'll receive the best possible response. It is very time consuming to move misplaced messages that are in the wrong topics. Anytime you need to start a new thread/topic on a forum, first make sure you are in the correct forum for your topic. Word your new thread title in a way to help the members know exactly the information you seek. This greatly helps the members browsing through the thread titles and if they know the information, they will reply to you. It is best to limit each inquiry to only one topic or concerning only one cruise line, one ship, one port of call, etc. and of course, on the correct forum. You will get more replies that way. Be sure to mention your cruise line, ship, port or sail date in your inquiry as that sort of information will help your fellow Cruise Critic members help you. And since George C mentions your Roll Call, the specific Cruise Critic Roll Call thread for your line, ship and sail date will be the place for you to get to know the other Cruise Critic members sailing with you before your cruise. Your fellow Roll Call thread members may have important information posted in your Roll Call thread. Especially those that have sailed your line, ship or itinerary before. Also, there may be existing share requests already posted in the Roll Call thread that you might want to join. Per the Guidelines, the specific Roll Call thread for your cruise is the only place on the Cruise Critic message boards where you and your fellow Roll Call thread members are allowed to post personal ads about sharing private tours, excursions, transportation etc. with each other to 💲ave money. That is ... if COVID-19 protocol allows by then. There is a "captive audience" on your Roll Call thread since you are all sailing together! You will receive a much better response to your share request if you take some time to read the entire Roll Call thread, post an introductory post about yourself, and continue on with more posts back and forth to get to know the other Roll Call thread members and allow them to get to know you first before you post your share request. That is the spirit of our Roll Calls. To explain our Roll Call threads and finding the Roll Call thread for your line, ship and sail date, please read What is a Roll Call? Everything you Need to Know and How To: Create A New Roll Call. Since you do not mention your cruise line, ship and sail date, I cannot direct you to the existing Roll Call thread for your cruise if it is already established. For more information about our famous Roll Calls, please read the Roll Calls and Our Policy Regarding Facebook and Roll Calls sections in the Guidelines. We also have a Cruise Critic article you might enjoy too: 8 Reasons to Join a Cruise Critic Roll Call And don't forget, after your cruise be sure to submit your review for publication by Cruise Critic. Many cruisers will benefit from your experience! See How To: Submit a Member Review. Sorry this is so long, but I sincerely hope all this information will be helpful to someone new to posting on our message boards. Welcome again, and we are so glad to have you aboard Cruise Critic! Happy sails, Host Kat
