Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I am on one of those social media sites for another cruise, but have decided not to join for this cruise, as some nasty stuff can come up. Yes, you can report it and it is deleted if the admin has missed it, but I had one where I became the brunt of some trolling. It was someone who had joined as anonymous, at that stage anonymous was allowed on that site. It made me feel quite sick, so after reporting, and admin changed to no anonymous posts, and removed the posts, I turned the group off for the rest of the month. Most people were great, and so much help was given, but I prefer CC. Certainly, since covid the CC posts have gone down, and as you say social media now is used by more people for posting.
  2. Hi Folk. We are doing this cruise as the return from Syd /Sing in July, after Splendor drydock. As we will be in Singapore for 3 weeks in May /June, we are thinking of flying over to the Philippines for a week or so, (to catch up with friends we met on a cruise) during the 3 weeks Splendor is in drydock. We try to get to Singapore once or twice each year, so are very familiar with it. Love going there. We did a similar trip on Spirit, when she went up for drydock a few years ago. While in Singapore, one day we caught a bus around to the dry dock where Spirit was getting refurbed, just for a look-see. Of course, couldn't get near, but could see her from the hill. It was a good way to see more of Singapore that we hadn't been to. Lovely Black and White colonial houses out that way. I am on a Princess CC for a cruise in April this year. a lot of people joined in the last couple of months, so still plenty of time for people to get on board.
  3. Checked outside. Clear as a bell. Must be just the camera lens.😁.
  4. There appears to be a lot of fog out there. Thought perhaps the weather was a problem. Sad that it is due to a medical emergency.
  5. Thankyou. Guest service crew call, answered as well. I only just noticed we had lights in front of us on the bridge cam. Hope the person is going to be okay.
  6. Can anyone tell me why we appear to have gone back to Busselton?
  7. This will probably be pretty much my last post till Adelaide. Can read all CC posts, but can't post, for some reason when I am on Ship Wifi. For those in iso, hope you clear soon. For those in freedom stay well, and enjoy.💐
  8. That was a nice simple fix. Wished that was all ours was. They were getting maintenance in to try and fix our problem, but we weren't prepared to take the chance that it would come back again, given there was a possibility of more rough weather. I hadn't even considered that the weather was rough that first night. (Have been through cyclone, and lows in the past) But the services guy told me it was.😆
  9. Some of it was in the timber trim around the balcony door. Not the gentle noise of a creaking ship, but, clunking and banging. Because it was a little rough when we left Sydney, the cabin bits decided to protest. Was suggested that it was only because of the weather that night, and would probably be okay when voyage was smooth sailing. But 28 days around our coast, did not bode well. So glad we decided to move. Missed the Freo farewell, etc, being on the wrong side of the ship, but happy with our quiet cabin.
  10. Will be interested to see how you go. Gary tested positive at about 6.15 am on 24th. First test today.
  11. Yes, positive. 10 days in all . 1st day apparently not included. Gary is fine health wise. All symptoms gone. Just has to put up with me coughing etc.
  12. We were led to understand day 5, but were told yesterday that 1st day doesn't count, and then test is "day 6"
