Ughhh, bad news for me.  I love the Discovery and San Pedro is my home port.  Wonder what ship will take its place?

How about the new Star Princess?

Cruise Raider. We will be doing an overnight in SF Monday on the Discovery. Will be watching Packers/ Raiders on MUTS Monday night! Will be thinking of you guys!

Jazz Cruises

Will Elites still have priority boarding?

Didn't it used to be $100.00?

Watched Thursday Night Football last week on the Majestic. Nice gathering of Rams/Seahawks fans.

Everyone is stressing out for no reason.Just got off the Majestic yesterday traveling with my mother who owns a flip phone. We had to wait a whole 5 minutes for her to check in the old way. Once on board she could not believe how every server knew her by name. Blew her mind. Her best cruise ever!

Cruise Raider, did you get to see your Packer game on MUTS?

Hmmm  Am I reading this CDC page correctly?  It is reporting, as of today, August 16th, that the Majestic Princess has Covid onboard and is in yellow status.  

 

https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/cruise/cruise-ship-color-status.html

• Yellow status means the ship has met the threshold for CDC investigation, which includes one of the following criteria:
  • at or above the investigation threshold for crew COVID-19 cases,
  • at or above the investigation threshold for passenger COVID-19 cases; or
  • state or local health department notified CDC of passenger COVID-19 cases occurring within 5 days of disembarkation.

CDC acknowledges that it is not possible for cruising to be a zero-risk activity for spread of COVID-19. Cruising will always pose some risk of COVID-19 transmission. Therefore, public health measures, including testing and vaccinations, will continue to play a role. CDC recommends that all travelers (passengers and crew) get fully vaccinated against COVID-19. 

 

I don't think I would panic but I might be a bit more attentive to mask wearing.  As the CDC says, cruising will always pose some risk.

I thought I saw you fly over. See you Superbowl Sunday!

I had been trying to call for over a week and refuse to be on hold for more than 15 minutes. Yesterday I called and got a recording saying there were over 100 callers ahead of me. I hung up and called right back and they picked up on the first ring. Go figure?

I also have checked my Leatherman on many times with no problem. Last time I made the mistake of moving it to carry on and it was flagged. Pleaded to security and was left with two options. Mail it home, not a round trip cruise, or kiss it good bye. Told the lady at security to give it to her husband. "Sorry not allowed", whatever!

This is why a man should never do laundry. Thought I would do a load of darks. Asked DW if she wanted to add something. She tossed me a $50 pair of Levi's. Wash went well, (1 drink). Dry, (2 drinks), not so well. Load had been tossed onto folding table minus DW's jeans. Still in doghouse. My bad...

Can you say Castaway?  Wow!

Wine selection for tonight?

I have another reason for being angry about the missing chair. My mom who travels solo likes to come over to hang out. Inside the room we just sit on the bed, but we like to party on our balcony. I always drag the barrel chair out to the balcony and enjoy all the comforts of home. Unfortunately the steward feels different and would drag it back in each night.

Also, don't forget to hit the Pastry Shop after your meal.

WARNING! Do not pack rootbeer in your check in luggage. My 12 pack turned into a 10 pack. All 10 cans were expanded to the bursting point. Luckily I packed them into two plastic bags which contained the mess. Never make that mistake again.

Barq's in cans at all bars.

R-747 is our go to stateroom on grand class ships. It's nice to be able to spin your deck chair sideways and see forward when plowing through the water. The only bummer is that straight above the balcony is a waiter station in the buffet and you constantly hear dishes banging and silverware hitting the floor.

Cannot understand why sit down Salty Dogs are not open for lunch? Would be a great option.

Try to find information on La Mer on the Sky page. It's all been deleted, except for the deck plans. Maybe Crooners is coming back?

I was at the same sail a way party as Mr.Brown.The balcony [M-107] has an absurd amount of real estate, think rock star. Was told by our host, you could fit 70 people! Enjoy!

3 Princess ships in port this am. That means a lot of happy people!

Princess will tell you no earlier than 2pm. Took a Princess transfer to MIA airport and was at the airport at 10am. 4 hrs.early. A noon flight would be perfect, if everything goes right-
