Rare drron29 Posted February 24, 2023 #16176 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Just a warning for those taking tours into the mountains when visiting Bali on a cruise. A very interesting warning given by SS on what you should wear. give particular attention to the shoes you should wear. We suggest wearing light and comfortable clothing and turdy walking shoes at all times due to basic road and walkway condition, 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably met the Silversea standards at that point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blonde brain here was having a panic attack about the kidney stones. I eat most of the foods on Que's list and think I may be doomed. 😞 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lirio Posted February 25, 2023 #16189 Share Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Back to Belo Horizonte we visited Praça da Liberdade (Freedom Square) where formerly was the government buildings and palace. Now all the buildings around the square are museums, or art galleries. The pictures are of the square, buildings around it and the government house (inside and outside). I lived here in this square for some years in the 70´s. It was my playground. Edited February 25, 2023 by Lirio 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jpalbny Posted February 25, 2023 #16193 Share Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Beautiful pix, @Lirio! Less than a week until we make the LONG trek to Bali. After a few days on the beach in Jimbaran to overcome the jet lag, we board a Ponant cruise through Indonesia to Singapore. Today we did a little shopping for the trip. We got some new raincoats, as Chris's is probably 20+ years old and mine is more than 10 years old. And some new hiking shoes. Now, time for a G&T in the hot tub. It's been snowing all day and the view is beautiful - as long as you're inside! Edited February 25, 2023 by jpalbny 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All new countries and stops for us. We were originally scheduled on a similar itinerary in November 2020. Looking forward to this! Interestingly, we'll be in Komodo NP for two days. One of them is the same day that Silver Whisper calls there. Wonder if we will see each other? Edited February 26, 2023 by jpalbny 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Large animals with large teeth are not things I'm comfortable with. Except of course for @Stumblefoot. 😁 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The zero solo supplement is always very enticing and they have some great itineraries. I Just worry about how “French” they are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing they liked it enough to take a 2nd cruise with them🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be starting a live TR over on those boards soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
