It became exhausting. I've really enjoyed the other passengers on these extentions! Hi Lisa! I think it's you that my husband Terry and I met while having lunch in Greece ... Santorini I think. We were talking about cruises and travel and I think I gave you may card. I'm researching World Cruises and this thread popped up and this sounds a lot like you. If so, I'd love to hear from you! You can reach me at MaryGlynn@mac dot com. Hope to talk to you soon! Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting patiently for the video of Bestsy’s and Jim’s wedding No, I'm finally going home on 8/11...but this last month of extensions have been alot of fun! There are 4 other world cruisers who are also still here, but we're all leaving after this current cruise. I'm sure I'll have a period of transition when I have to do everything for myself! Haha! The crew have really spoiled me. Ray Carr told us that he thinks we may hold the Oceania record for the most number of consecutive days onboard! 😲 I can't post the video till I'm home...sorry!

But we met a lady some 20 years ago, long since departed I'm sure, who had been living on a HAL ship for at least a couple of years. Whereas we've been ready to jump overboard (just kidding) at about day 16. We need more life than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not talking about someone living on the ship...of course that would be longer. He was meaning someone who is on vacation. And I would estimate that 211 days would be considered long on most any cruiseline for vacationing passengers. BTW, I can't imagine having more of a life than I've had...God has blessed me beyond measure, to which I am so grateful. I've learned so much from my fellow passengers and the crew that has broadened my world...my thanks to each one. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 5 of us remaining RTW passengers will be leaving on this day. Maybe we'll meet on a future cruise...I think all 5 of us have now earned the free cruise so we'll be back on O again.

I can do a cruise for 50 plus days I have never done as long as you and maybe my DH and I will do a world cruise but I so wonder being gone so long!

Rare Waynetor Posted August 12, 2019 #2399 Share Posted August 12, 2019 When we were on the 180 day 2016 cruise there were 2 couples that instead of flying back to Europe from Miami, stayed on for a cruise from Miami to Southampton - not sure how many days that would have totaled but would have been over 200 and close to the 211 Lisa and the others did. Likely the 211 beat them by a few days. Either way, a voyage like this certainly helps someone to move up the loyalty levels in a quick manner.

That's why we all did it! Very cheap 3 extra cruise credits that got us to the free cruise...and we didn't have to fly somewhere, we were already on the ship. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
