Recommended Posts

Hi all from Aruba today on Adventure!  Had a fabulous day in Bonaire yesterday and a relaxing beach day today!  Having a wonderful time Deb and Andy!  Oh and yesterday I had a surprise when I got back to my room, my first Crystal Block!IMG_3873.thumb.jpeg.99907198ce12cda63f6d7bd12c755f13.jpegIMG_3884.thumb.jpeg.c360abd515604e97f5b38b45a0247a1e.jpeg

Just do a couple b2b2bs and there you are 140 pts. Next stop after diamond. 

Just gotta get your knee(s) all well.

Suites are also a quick way to be diamond and diamond plus 😁

Unfortunately with the prices the way are now it makes it hard for us since we already have 5 cruises booked now. If we can find room we will. After these next 5 we will have 130 points. Need to do something as we want to get to Diamond Plus.

So 10 pts to 140. Be sure and ask as they dont always have you flagged for a crystal block. Some people even try and time that 140 pt ship for the ship they want. You can do 10 pts for sure. 

 

Royal sure has us all hooked in where we want that next perk. I want more wifi. I'll trade my blocks for more wifi days.

For us getting to Diamond Plus with it's 5 vouchers per day for drinks would help us in not having to buy the Deluxe Drink Package. That would free a lot of money that could be used for future cruises.

DH & I are having a little getaway to Seal Rocks (approx 3 1/2hrs north of Sydney).  Max is being spoilt again by our housesitters.  We are staying at the lighthouse keepers cottage at Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse.  The weather is beautiful, the cottage is spacious and has views from every angle and having a working lighthouse up close from your backyard is pretty cool.D2B9A9BD-BD58-4D23-88A9-34BA714E1ACD.thumb.jpeg.1df8b79e0872823a52cd2a546f35f0d3.jpeg

It appears that Daryl is alive and well, and he appeared on the cards the grandkids made.

I think our granddaughter is excited about sailing on Utopia, because that was also on her card.  
 

A nice cake.

You and Jim share the same date.🎈

Also a great quick way to drain the bank account.

Very true , ten years ago when we started doing suites they were not that much more than balconies, but times do change.

While on Icon our cruise friends earned their first block. When we got home they insisted on us having it!  So thoughtful 💕

If all works out  for us, we will receive our 1st on the Bella cruise!  That will be special. 

 Since Utopia is a 4 day we will miss Utopia by 1pt.
