Main tourist attractions:- Tivoli gardens. Little Mermaid. Nyhavn. Amalienborg Palace. Stroget a very long shopping street. Graham. Do they still have the Copenhagen card that gets you into all those things and more for 1 price? We liked the Christanborg Palace - have you been there? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the 1990s we were guests of Anthon Berg Tom's Danish chocolate 4 times for 3 days each time and they took us to all the sights and had a full day with meals in a Schooner boat. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sacking of Raygan was uneventful, pretty much how she was a bosun. I feel bad for both Dave and Natasha. He really should have backed off. The things he said to her were uncalled for but she also misled him. She was basically throwing herself at him in the beginning. Do we think the new deckhand will be Malia? 2 hours ago, Ocean Boy said: I don't think it will be Malia. Storm deserves the chamce to prove himself as bosun and I don't think she would fall back into the role as a deck hand after being a bosun. At least I hope it is not Malia. I think Storm will be promoted. He has a lot of experience. I've read that Malia does not want to return as a bosun but is open to a position higher. I think she wants to replace Captain Sandy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as we got off the ship, everyone was swarming us trying to get us to buy jewelry, get our hair braided, etc. I started speaking French (thank you, high school!) and they all backed off and swarmed someone else b/c they thought I didn't speak English and they wanted an "easy sale".

Pauline and her work colleagues are currently at the church funeral service of one of their colleagues who died aged 56. Take care friends and make every day a special day. Graham. Such a young age. It's always so sad to hear. You are so right, Graham. We should always try to make each day count. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it wasn't. I'm sorry that it wasn't. Thank you, Pat. Moreover, I think that despite our different "sizes" and "shapes", it is the "lockdown" and the stressful situation we have ALL found ourselves in, that brought us together.... and it still is, despite it being, for now, "obsolete".... 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t see a tomato that’s red all the way through in years. For a while, farmers markets were all over the place on Saturdays.

MJSailors Posted August 10, 2022 #67516 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Good morning,everyone. As I have written before,this thread moves very quickly. I was surprised to see the title has been changed. One morning, I was reading the posts under the original title.During the evening, I returned to Dani’s thread,and saw that the title had been changed. At least the former title was kept in parenthesis. Despite the change, Dani and followers continue to post,so that is a good thing! MJ🙋🏻 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Momof3gurlz Posted August 10, 2022 #67521 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I booked our one-way return flights from San Juan at the end of our Voyager repositioning cruise. The only nonstop option was JetBlue into Boston which was $360 pp before adding luggage or upgrading to have it included. I was able to get Southwest into Providence with one stop in Baltimore (and bags included) for $160pp. The cruise departs from Boston on a Sunday so we’ll have one of the kids drive us up. If we had flown back to Boston, getting home on a Tuesday would’ve been sticky. Flying into Providence, we can just Uber home - a whole 6.9 mile trip. I also booked the Hotel Casablanca for our one night stay in Old San Juan before flying home. Thanks @Sea Dogfor the recommendation. Bonus points: I have enough travel rewards on our everyday credit card (CapitalOne) to redeem the airfare & hotel so that part of the trip is “free”! 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Deck 8 was my secret. When a friend heard me say Deck 8 she said she would never book that deck because of the noise from Central Park. I just smiled. 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
