We are starting a new custom by having dinner the night before at our favourite Vietnamese restaurant in Maroochydore. Nyugen Brothers. Rojaan always has the lemongrass beef with vermicelli salad and I had the lemongrass beef banh mi. Definitely worth it. Bon voyage. Enjoy the trip and your well deserved retirement.

Rare drron29 Posted August 1, 2022 #14004 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) So we are now in the SKL lounge. Not surprisingly a delay but this time it is the weather with fog that is getting thicker. We were first to the lounge this morning. So I have the Apple let’s turn everything upside down problem. Well we are still down under at present. But a good start as this morning I was down 18kg ( 40 lbs.). Now to keep it off on the Dawn!

Rare drron29 Posted August 2, 2022 #14006 Share Posted August 2, 2022 A typical start to the trip with a 2 hour delay. But due to a heavy morning fog. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @mysty, thanks for asking. On day one we rested most of the day and visited the National Museum. Second day was the embarkation day and was tough. We had to leave the hotel room by 11 am, lunch at 1130 am and bus to airport at about 1 pm. Bus delayed 20 minutes and the charter flight to Greenland delayed 2 hours. Silversea offered a 2 hour drive along the lava fields (no stop) to pass the time. Finally got to the port and embarked at Silver Wind (security, health check, etc.). We had a buffet dinner at La Terazza and at 10 pm the drill. Got to bed very tired again. Silver Wind is a nice ship but after we have done 2 expedition cruise on Silver Explorer, 1 at Silver Galapagos, plus Australis to Tierra del Fuego, I feel Wind is very big and lost the atmosphere we usually experienced in expedition cruise. We are enjoying Greeland and already considering options for next year when I will be 60! I promise to post photos and a complete review of the cruise. After the cruise we will be back to Iceland to have a 12 day land trip. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare drron29 Posted August 4, 2022 #14025 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Basically smooth flying since our initial delay. Now I’m in the BA first class lounge waiting for our flight to Barcelona. We always overnight at the airport after a long flight. In Singapore we stay at the Crowne Plaza at the airport. Really good now as a short walk to Jewel. Lots of dining options, shops and a good light show. All the right way up today. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
