Hopefully you'll tell us all about it. Fair winds!

Thanks for doing the hard work. Public service is never fully appreciated. 😁

Agree with SLSD. Dont let one buzzkill stop you from your excellent reporting.

I know! The handcuff thing cracked me up.

Archery equipment including crossbows and bolts. Catapults. Well dang, there goes that idea.

It's looking pretty sweet!

It depends on where you are going. Some countries still require test or proof of vaccine.

Exactly! I often ask crew "what is the favorite dish that your mother makes". The ensuing discussion can lead to so many places.

Thanks for the photos and report. I completely concur with your comments. I was not a fan of the Muse. The obs/library is cramped, mediocre viewing, access to outside limited, and low ceilings. The low ceilings and cramped feel in most of the restaurants was also a negative. Nothing luxury about the spaces, IMHO. However, the pizza was top notch.

The bean counters have deemed a the IT department a low priority for funding.

Was also going to post this. Please be careful @bmwix So sad, Ecuadorians are such lovely people.

There is usually a briefing the night before to explain the following days excursions. You will be assigned a color group for excursion departures. Depending on the stop there may be different levels of hikes or alternative activities that the expedition team has come up with. Sometimes folks will be asked to sign up after the briefing. I've attached a pic of a briefing slide. Fyi, it's from Seabourn Venture, but it will be the same on Silversea. Although the info is usually available printed and on the app, I like having it quickly available on my phone. Primarily because I can't remember what they just told me.😃. You will have a fabulous trip!

Re: violation. You caught me before my edit. Just having a bit of fun!

Ditto!

I once asked her if she would consider posting her schedule so we could book those cruises.😁

Hmmmm, lots of talk about jackets and ties for men. BUT, where's the outrage about ladies can choose an evening gown or cocktail dress. Rather 1950's I should think, ladies must not wear pants. If men are still required to wear a jacket, shouldn't women be required to wear a gown or dress? Me - lobs grenade and runs. 😂

Hear hear! Having you set the tone with kindness and the velvet hammer helps.😃

She can make a turkey wrap taste like it came out of a 5* kitchen.

Dry bags come in all shapes, sizes and price points. Nice to have on wet ship to shore zodiac rides. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=dry+bag&crid=2TB2VULIRGIUU&sprefix=dry+bag+%2Caps%2C184&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

It's not work if you love your job.🤣

Looking g forward to hearing about your trip. Fair winds!

😳 I can see there is a lot of work to be done!

I'm ready.
