if RCI still requires testing in November, I hope tests from CVS would satisfy the requirement.

we have these tests at home, I would be worried about the turn around time on these.

For those in Florida, they have subsidized flights from Orlando, Miami, and FLL for $249 on American and Bahamas Air.  For our sailing, most are $1000-2000 per person when booking on Kayak. Nothing out of TPA, so we are driving farther, but well worth it IMO. 

We got 269.00 out of TPA. We did think about driving to Miami for some saving but decided it wouldn't really save any money

Booked for 7/24 and sailing solo.  I usually take along a grandkid or two, but that seemed too complicated at the moment, so I’m looking forward to a relaxing vacation!  I too have no plans to get off the ship at Cozumel or Grand Bahama - perfectly content to hang out on my balcony with a good book and an adult beverage!  

We will get off the ship if its not a cattle call other wise we will just stay on and enjoy the peace and quite

We are on the July 10th sailing. Booked a JS to have room and a good size balcony. Just want to be at sea, I wear a mask 8 to 10 hours a day. If we have to wear them I'm fine with it, We just want to be on a ship again

We are cruising in early Dec. If hubby had his way we would be going in Sept

Need a little help trying to plan a train trip. We are getting off the Aullure on Aug 30th. We need to be in Amsterdam to get on the Brilliance on Sept 2. What we would like to do is head to Paris on the 30th  spend a day or 2 there then head to Brugee spend a day there. Then take the train to Amsterdam on the 2th. Anyway we are have a had time getting Train info. Has anyone done this. Or something like it.

I think we all have a different Idea about what is county club casual. I also think it depends on where you are from.  I will wear jeans with some strappy shoes and a nice shirt and wrap to any of the venues. I wouldn't wear jeans on formal night. We are very lucky and are able to do a 30 day cruise at the end of summer early fall. And after awhile it gets really old getting dressed for dinner. We used to dress every night because we wanted to. Now I find we are much more casual. What ever works for you so long as you are in the guidelines of the dress code

Thanks All

Guess hes sailing alone 😞

My DH and I should be leaving for a quick 4 day cruise on Monday. I can not go. He still can but doesn't really want to. This cruise was booked so we would go D+ before our TA next mth. If we don't go will we still get the points? no point in Canceling wouldn't get anything but port fees back anyway.

We used Uber when we were there in Dec. Simple and easy. I don't think I would want to drive there.

We did a Baltic cruise last year in the fall. It was for us pretty cool Fl girl. We choose a inside for our Baltic as it was so port intensive. It was nice to come back to our nice quite dark cabin. For the next leg of the trip we moved to a balcony for the TA part of the trip. It was cool for the first part of the trip home. The last week of the trip were all sea days and nice and warm spent a ton of time on our balcony.

Hi all

My Husband really want to play a hand or 2 of blackjack and some craps. It looks like the gaming dosn't start till 2pm. Our ship gets in at 8:00 am in Cannes and leaves at 7:00 pm.  Just wondering what would be the best way to get there. 

Thanks

We just got back from the Baltics. We had 2 days in St Petersburg it wasn't enough do the two days. We used best guides they were fantastic I can't say enough good things about them.

Leigh

Thanks everyone lots of good ideas.

I have started the packing. And yes I am over packing. It will be fine. Taking each a carryon and each a large bag. I wanted to do just one large bag but hubby talked me out of it. His point is we have to handle our bags very little. Cab to hotel and cab to ship. I will send out jeans and stuff like that to be cleaned. And hand wash other things in the sink.

we are on the same sailing. there are only 12 people in our tour groups.

Leigh

When in Aug are you going we have room for 4 more people on out best guide tour in Aug

I love a maxi dress. I would look best in a dress that hit me at the top oh the knee if I didn't have fat knees. But I do so I go for just below the knee. I wear dresses all the time I also think what kind of shoe you wear make a differents also

Leigh

I have always been able to pick my seats. Sometimes you can do it when you are booking and other times you have to book first. Then you can pick your seats.

Leigh

I need a hour if I wash and blow dry and straighten my hair

Mine is just above my shoulders but very full. I try not to wash my hair more than 3 times a week its also dry. So if I don't get it wet then I just have to straighten it. I just drink a glass of wine while I'm getting ready. And I also do not let my hubby open the balcony door. LOL But yes I wish it didn't take so long.

Leigh

Good Morning

We are leaving for the Baltics at the end of August. Then doing a TA going to Ireland and the Azores. ending in Tampa. I am trying so hard not to over pack. I don't mind washing things out in the sink and more than likely will send clothes out to be washed. There seems to be a lot of temp differents . Anyone done this trip in late August and Sept and how did you pack?

Leigh

Look here http://www.portsofstockholm.com/vessel-calls/

Thank you so much for this link.

Unfortunately, as you dock in Nynashamn for Stockholm you don’t get the scenic sail in/out there.

How do you find out where your ship is going to dock for Stockholm? We are on the brilliance coming in on Aug 28th

Thanks

Good morning everyone

I found this thread last week and have read it all.

Wow on so many of you meeting your goals.

I'm shooting for 50lbs by Aug 17.

I started LCHF on Monday and have lost already.

Will be starting 14 day challenge with Diet doctor on Sunday night. So far this has been pretty easy.

DH and I are going to try a 24 hour fast tonight after dinner we will see how that goes. Its helping that my DH is doing this with me. He only needs to lose about 10 to 12 lbs but its nice to have a partner doing this.

Leigh

Duh! :*

Generally speaking, the morning rush hour in the Netherlands starts at roughly 7:00 and lasts till 9:00 in the morning. The evening peak lasts from mid-five to six thirty.

Thank you that's what I was wondering. We land about 1:30

Our plan is to take the train to the center then pick up a tram to our hotel.

Leigh

In general no problem. But not during rushhours and apart from that it can happen trams are sometimes busy. Stay with your luggage at all times, keep purses etc. in front of you. Unfortunately pickpockers love to ride trams too.

Hi stupid question but what rushhours?

Thanks
