LOL On the infamous Crystal Symphony crossing #0210 from LAX to Sydney., somewhere between the 2 typhoons we were straddling! 🙂 One lady and myself I recall were runnong around deck 6 trying to get pictures.One of the pds was broken between Melbourne and Perth so we limped into Perth 2 days late Are you sure you're not getting your cruises mixed up? The one we were on was 0205 and I think the Azipod problem was a Serenity cruise you were on with your parents. Come to think of it, Symphony does not have pods.

Roy We were on that cruise in 2010 and the typhoons were behind us by Sydney, or so I thought. We did not go all the way to Perth on that one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Costco store brand (Kirkland) came in second. Blue Bell tied for seventh with Walmart's brand. News you can use! Walmart has its own brand of ice cream?

As you probably know they are hurricanes in the Atlantic into the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico and I think the Pacific around California and Mexico. When we get news reports of them in the Pacific around the Philippines, etc., they always call them typhoons. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one year they start with an "A" female name then "B" male name, the next year it's an "A" male name then "B" female name and if the hurricane is particularly bad, the name is retired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(old child joke; Why? Because they are HERicanes!!) I think they went to the male/female alternate when they started running out of female names!! Or Germaine Greer got upset. One or the other.😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Keith1010 Posted July 1, 2023 #4050 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I have to admit when we are in London this is a big help to me. In fact on the ship we usually stay on the port side so I know make a right to make my way to the fitness center, market place and laundry room. Times we have stayed on the starboard side the first couple of days I end up walking towards Palm Court. Keith 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
