I will check later in the year for best spots to sit on Navigator for connectivity. Need to be in touch with office at least every couple days, so there are no major wild fires to deal with when I get back from almost 3 weeks out of office. Luckily, we work remotely much of the week, so not a huge deal as long as I can be in some form of contact.

@flossie009 Thank you again for sharing so much of your trip and posting menus, schedules and all the photos. Really looking forward to my Navigator cruise in November! Safe travels and look forward to your next adventure!

@PhD-iva Glad everyone let me know it’s a great musical group, not a tour group😳. Hope they get onboard in Istanbul so I can enjoy and work off a few ounces!

@mahdnc These are my favorite cabins on Summit, the outside space is spectacular. Will really be a treat going thru the canal. Was on a 10 day deck 7 port side corner last May. Best cabin on board. Could see the action behind and check out what was happening on the dock when in port. An extra closet at the entrance and the private hallway into the cabin. Enjoy!

@flossie009 They are not updated, but still look much nicer than the RCL and Celebrity bathrooms that I have been on lately. They look like they will be suitable for a solo traveler, just not the updated fixtures. Thank you again for sharing from the Navigator cruise you are on currently.

Not sure who K&B is, but I hope it’s not Nov 5 cruise. Have been a little concerned about low booking for this cruise, wondering if they are shopping around for a foreign charter. My first Navigator cruise in 20 years, but have 3 cruises prior on this lovely lady. Don’t want ship taken over by a large group, would ruin the experience. There seem to be a lot of UK cruisers with deals on the Nov 15 cruise, that had a lot of availability, too.

@kwokpotand @raudacruise I am waiting for Amazon to deliver today! Cannot wait to try it’s healing properties on some weird skin irritation I have developed since COVID…thank you for the recommendation but luckily I don’t have to worry about wild animals in my building lobby😊

That is a gorgeous site!

As Mentioned previously, trains get delayed frequently. Strikes are unannounced and common. I would not risk it in France. That may be an expensive taxi ride back to the coast.

Every town and city around the world has a market and you can usually secure these items…of course more than a $, but have purchased in Italy, France, Greece, UK, plan to purchase in Istanbul for upcoming cruise. if only traveling with carryon, decant some into 100ml travel size squirt bottle that passes through security. I usually have this in addition, in case my check thru delayed.

@Jim_Iain these phots make these deprived area look alive and vibrant. . Where these taken from your iPhone or experimenting on your new devices. Not sure what settings you are using.the color saturation is just incredible. What settings are u using on your phone?

Yes, best to take your own. If taking only carry on, find a Dollar Tree near port to get Soft soap and hand sanitizer plus any other toiletries you didn’t want to drag on your bag.

@flossie009 Thank you so much for posting. This is extremely helpful. Is it normal to have Prime 7 and Sette Mari closed for dinner or was this one of the days when you were in port over night where there were evening tours?

@Jim_Iain The colors on your photos from Fiji were spectacular. Where these taken from your iPhone or experimenting on your new devices. Not sure what settings you are using.

I definitely need to book a cruise to these destinations. The photos have really shown the natural beauty of the region. You seem to be having amazing weather. For the last few months many cruises have been plagued with rainy weather most days while sailing in that area. @flossie009 when you get a chance can you post the daily schedule showing hours of the different venues on board…dining, spa, etc.
