  1. Glad to hear you are going for dental eval before the planning for radiation begins. Dental prophylaxis has led to a reduction in both short term and long term side effects. It sounds like a tough treatment but there will be help available so remember there is never a stupid question when it concerns your health. You got this 🙏
  2. We were in Cartagena in December. DH uses a mobility scooter and was inclined to stay on the ship. finally agreed to join me in checking out the port area. He was very pleased to be able to move freely around the area as there were ramps and wide pathways. He really enjoyed taking photos of the many birds and animals in the area. The shopping area was also low pressure and we picked up some colorful ceramics to add to our collection .It was a most enjoyable couple of hours and if you have a scooter well worth doing, I understand that you are ambivalent at best about using one but please think about getting one to have available on this cruise. Our itinerary was similar to yours and the scooter was no problem in any of the ports,
  3. Just heard that port pilots are going to to ships waiting to enter port shortly,
  4. Local update re Port of Miami. Early this morning a small private vessel hit the Fisher Island ferry resulting in one death and one serious injury. Investigation is currently still ongoing and channel remains closed to boat traffic. Those ships that entered the port before the "accident " are not able to leave until clearance is given. Another of the only in Miami incidents. Especially for those outside the port currently experiencing thunderstorms. I can't imagine trying to rearrange flights etc and parking at the port is crazy!
  5. Agreed we do that also to Hollywood Beach. Taxis are always available and drivers are usually very helpful with luggage and DH's travel mobility scooter. Very efficient service
  6. Thanks for the updates. We're doing this cruise in September as second part of B2B, so am watching for current years reviews/comments. We are planning on Mendenhall glacier so any information you can provide about blue bus transportation will be greatly appreciated . Hope you have a great day today and the weather Improves.
  7. https://legacybox.com/products/vhs-conversion I used this company to digitize some tapes that were returned to me after several years of being "held hostage" by a former friend. They did an excellent job and I now have them on a USB drive although I think I've only watched them twice. I was however able to share them with some family members who has never seen them and for that I am very thankful/
  8. DARE day Dare Day on June 1 is the perfect opportunity for people to break out of their shells and do something different. Yes, not all people like to take risks — and it’s this very lack of courage that makes one fall into a comfort zone where even thinking of doing something daring becomes unacceptable. Do you want to continue living a calm and boring life free of all sorts of fun activities? If the answer is no, Dare Day is the perfect time for you to break out of your shell and shock everyone around you. Dare to be different and enjoy it while it lasts D.A.R.E. is a different day in April
  9. This is my life also!! Fortunately he will wear his TV Ears when watching tv.
  10. Thanks for the great review, glad to see you took some time for your self on this trip. I'm looking forward even more to my trip on Scarlet Lady at the end of June after reading this. Enjoy your weekend, hopefully you can get your surgery soon and work on resolving your life issues. You have the strength to do it!!
  11. Island time! So good though. worth waiting for. And the Kalik is cold.
  12. Just checked on google, has 10am as opening time. Enjoy
  13. They look amazing, Only 38 days until my Scarlet Lady. Getting very excited.
  14. Isn't premium included with deep blue extras?
  15. Only perk that is not per cabin seems to be cocktail party, not sure if non frequent sailors can attend if traveling with a Sea Rover. Haven't heard much about the cocktail party.
  16. I got my match in 2 days and received an email welcoming me as a Sea Rover. This was 2 weeks ago. DBE badge showed up online a couple of days later.
  17. You won't regret it, Sid's margaritas are the best, even if you have to manually squeeze the limes. It took me a while to realize just how little agave to use, but truly only a smidgen is needed.
  18. I've been waiting for this!! I have Scarlet Lady booked at the end of June for first Virgin cruise. Used the match to get Sea Rover status so any info on the program will be greatly appreciated. Enjoy your cruise.
  19. Looking forward to following your trip, so far you seem to have managed the travel really well. Once you're on the ship things should be much smoother. Glad you were able to meet some fellow cruisers and enjoy a day in Barcelona.
  20. They show for me, both on the original post and your quoted post
  21. Photo from Bonaire yesterday great port to visit. Agree with @RedneckBob
  22. Not as bad as earlier but still raining heavily and windy. I think it will be interesting tonight as we seem to be sailing through the weather. Haven't seen the "bags" on the stairwell yet, I enjoy feeling the ship move DH not so much 🤢
