Derailed?

The variety of ways Royal can grab your money is mind boggling

Serenade is doing $69 per leg for all digital and up to 100 prints. That price is good if you commit to at least 9 of the 17 legs.

Rolling Stones in June

With the Africa change, Royal offered to refund your pro rated fare for the days you wanted to miss. Plus you could leave your stuff in your cabin. Very generous. For those staying on, Royal refunded 25% of the affected daily rate. It was given in a refundable OBC. Showed up today. John needs to call Royal and see how his was handled since he closed his account yesterday

Usually you submit a trip interruption request. Not a big deal, but port needs to have immigration agents available. John was an emergency request, and they made it happen

No, I return in Barcelona

John left the ship in Seoul to spend time with Bella and I. He should return in Singapore

Once you do NYE in Rio, every other one will be a letdown

6 days out of 7 Royal has a string trio in the Centrum during afternoon and pre dinner

While sailing round Hong Kong Island, the ship had to alter course when an unlit ferry crossed her path. The action caused a huge wave in both pools that flooded the pool deck and into forward elevators. Glassware in Schooner came crashing down as well. Not sure about any other damage. Happened sometime between 9 and 930

Yep, also met Scott Conant. He makes a fabulous meatball Who knows what today will bring

Yep, getting close to Hong Kong, but Starlink seems to have a hub there. I'm enjoying my Food Network charter and have a new bestie😉

Bragging rights 😉

John went mirrorless for this trip, but stayed with Canon and an adapter. The expensive lens isn't long, it's just really heavy. Look him up when you board
