  1. Yes, sir. On the doubled up - Halifax does have solar panels on top of the cruise terminal roof, for their convenience to sail & sustain, of course. Fwd gangway is shorter and AFT on deck 8 is for those to exercise and burn off those food calories. The sun will come out ... tomorrow is too late. Alexia, I will take noon - showers off & on this morning - they don't feel like doing the Citadel hilltop 😱 Food tour on our own via Uber ? Vietnamese food places spotted - they dive for good eats, no matter what. Will see 🫣
  2. First world problem, obviously not looking for hash browns anymore but out of banana also, settled for a fruit plate & doubled order of smoked salmon bagel, OJ and coffee. Still took them 10 minutes to seat us - 4 tops. 20 minutes to get hot oatmeal & my fruit & salmon w bagel ... kitchen is 50 ft. behind the double doors. Prima's service standard of excellence 🙄😳😬 Lamp chops last night was good. Lobster, not so much Day 3 - 7 hours here and then, all abroad & sail toward Iceland.
  3. Half & Half for coffee MDR lines not as bad at 8:40 but not enough staff to escort to tables, still pack full of pax not rushing to go anywhere.
  4. Alvin just announced gangways on Deck 7 & 8 are being set up, to enjoy breakfast. Wind powered - new’ish
  5. We’ve arrived … 0h Canada at Halifax. Local time is 7:24 ADT n Google Fi roaming on Bell’s 5G network. Rainy days on Mondays always get me down … Karen Carpenter’s Now, we do have shorter walk to downtown along the waterfront … later. @dexddd Good morning to all & you. Going to breakfast shortly, already hear others out on the hallway.
  6. @JIMESOPUS Muchas Gracias ... thanks, Jim Station Zebra going offline or off-the-air for a few hours to get some zzzz's with a port day in the morning. Then to "brace" for 5 full sea days crossing the pond to Iceland 😆😄😎🤗🫣 mking8288 - Henry Code 10-7 P.S. Course heading from onboard Nav Ch. 1 - 34.5 deg at 19.5 kts. No ETA ...
  7. Deal or No Deal 😄 Newest & lowest price to upgrade to unlimited with 70 free airtime minutes remaining for next 12 days with 7 full sea days ahead. FREE after offset with NR-OBC. Extra leftover $$ to cover 2 whole lobster upcharge at Paloma earlier. Sweet 😆
  8. Midnight witching hour, expected to be at Halifax after 6 AM local time. Not on NCL tour and sleeping late to avoid the surge for breakfast & gangway as I will be running our own private tour. Getaway inbound to NY for her TA later today. She is really running late & arrival look worst than us giving her coordinates now, oh dear. @bedfordmom Maybe you are on to something which I suspected all along but we can't "call" without ...
  9. FSD #3 - Donna tonight at 8:00 PM - one show only. After 9:30 PM, become Studio 54 like dance club. Port Agent info - all abroad 4:30 PM. Know of 2 pax, indirectly, flying into Halifax to catch the Prima ... missed all abroad cutoff in NY (took expired passports)
  10. Fingers crossed, Prima the only ship there ... been there w shuttle ride to Pier 22, know that drill 🙄 Hope not 🙏
  11. Looking ahead, Friday into Saturday as we approach Iceland from the SW looking dicey with counter clockwise weather pattern. Will deal with that, one way or another - been blessed with what I consider perfect weather overall 😄 for a typical TA.
  12. Pixel connected to ship WiFi, Station Zebra in stealth mode, hotspot tethering w 1 additional device concurrently. Dialed remotely into home security camera monitoring system to check our indoor house plants, over streaming video feeds.
  13. My knees wanted to rest but ... elevator down to Deck 7, walked past duty-free shops - Prada, anyone ... LV bags ?? - to drop off those Canada entry forms. And, to speak with an associate at Guest Services. Look into the system and said, call ext 00 and they will take care of it & deliver. Yes, sir - if they answer the phone, dialed 3 times from our room & nobody answered - or else I would not be standing here ... Thank God, the line was short - only 2 guests in front until my turn, and they aren't giving out pagers. Maybe, the housekeeping supervisor somehow pull some strings ... 3 cartons of water showed up by the time we came back to our cabin. Down to 180 free minutes on 1 account, will upgrade tomorrow.
  14. Door decorations might be banned elsewhere but not Deck 10 starboard side, walked past 3 or 4 along our stretch alone. More free movies to watch ... from our stateroom's interactive TV. Ship's navigational, Ch. 1 still being upgraded, no change from 6 months ago - not that useful or informative. 👎 👌 Windy Apps & CruiseMapper 👍
  15. Food Republic, rather empty tonight ... Surfside Cafe beginning to empty out at 8:30 PM ... After 9 PM closing, just 1 station open for refilling water bottles & getting hot water, etc.
  16. Tonight's Specialty Dining - 2 vouchers w a guest each - was excellent, we upcharged @$25 x 2 broiled lobster entree 👍 and left on a full stomach. 1-1-1 including 1 side each, dessert with French press coffee. Cancelled Haiski next week to do Paloma again w the grilled fish for 2, two dining voucher to be used for this - otherwise, M.P.
