Rare Keith1010 Posted September 6, 2023 #4303 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Sometimes, it's all about perspective how one sees things. Photos taken within second of one another on a port stop on the Inaugural Cruise. Keith 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wait, wrong optical illusion…. 😁 Though I still don’t know what all you gold dress people were smoking. 😏 Vince 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctjon Posted September 7, 2023 #4312 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Remember that also. For people on the upcoming cruise heading to Quebec = there is a major hurricane heading up the Atlantic - has there been any communication from Crystal about what will happen if that cruise conflicts with that weather. The cruise some of us have been discussing back in 2012 was after a hurricane went through the Atlantic and our weather was horrible - times you had to stay in your room etc. Hope you don't face the same but I'd be concerned.

Just out of curiosity, which storm is it? The NHC only has advisories up for Lee and Jova. (I haven't had my head in the weather much this week, I admit. Fall crunch in thee events industry is now underway.) Vince Edited September 7, 2023 by BWIVince 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted September 7, 2023 #4315 Share Posted September 7, 2023 I have a feeling Lee may have more of an impact on Quebec to New York. Roy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy If it's Lee we're talking about, it's way, way, way too far away for cruise lines (or even passengers) to make any changes to their plans based on its expected path. The alternatives are just as if not more likely to be impacted as the original plans. Everyone just needs more time at this point to get a clearer picture of probability before anyone takes action. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctjon Posted September 7, 2023 #4317 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Lee is the one - maybe right about Quebec to NY but it is a huge storm which will be coming up the Atlantic and the winds and waves can proceed or follow - just a reminder to pay attention. In 2012 we were not that close to the date but it sure made an impact on the trip. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2012 we were not that close to the date but it sure made an impact on the trip. The ocean was a millpond as we landed at Keflavik, and on our transfer up to Reykjavik. Went for a walk and discovered Serenity is already here! We did not get anywhere close to the pier area (too far to walk), but oddly, she appears to be tendering today! Of course the new NCL Prima is here as well, and she probably takes up a lot of space! Supposed to be at least three ships in Reykjavik tomorrow! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I recall, we got caught in the remnants of three post-tropical depressions from dying hurricanes. That is what made it so incredibly rough!! We got shut out of Newfoundland on Seabourn Quest last fall due to Fiona! Hoping for better luck this time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
