Rogueperson's **Live** Adventure of the Seas B2B Bermuda (maybe) and Canada. September 24 - October 8, 2022

[Rogueperson]

So apparently, this cruise, the paper cruise compass is by request.

 

I didn’t get day 2 last night and i was able to get it later.  Here is day 2

 

 

 

 

[Rogueperson]

Now that my stateroom attendant knows, I get it now.

 

Here is day 3.  I swear i don’t know why adobe scan sometimes does black and white.  O don’t change the settings.  Even though its the same scan, some are in color.  It still works better than taking a straight photo.  Adobe scan automatically crops it correctly.

So this ends Day 2.  Tomorrow and the next day is Bermuda.  I don’t have net access in Bermuda so i won’t be as active.  So apologies in advanced.

Have a great day in Bermuda!

[jimbri]

Have a great time!

[Rogueperson]

Good Morning from Bermuda. 

 

 

 

So from this view, they are like “Fiona who?”. Looks pretty clear.  It almost 80 degrees out here.  We have not cleared customs yet.  My tour begins pretty much soon after we open the doors.

Why?  Their Canadian cruise leaves NJ on 9/29 but doesn’t arrive in Canada until 10/4.

Because we have to follow protocol based on our depart date, not arrival.  Royal will take care of my requirements as I’m on a b2b.

Found wifi in St. Georges.

 

Quick shot.

Woooo hooooo…. One less thing to worry about on our B2B!

No tests or AriveCan. Yayyyyyy

Why can’t Bermuda follow suite??

@Rogueperson, how did you get to St Georges? I thought the ferry was not operating to there. We were thinking of taking the ferry to Hamilton and bus to St. Georges. In May, we had a great island tour, but it did not include St Georges.

part of the minibus tour.  The ferry is down, but is still access by cab and bus.

Today’s adventure was the Bermuda Island by Minibus tour.

 

 

The worlds smallest drawbridge.  It so cute…

 

 

Hamilton

Found this bookstore in Hamilton.  This sign is both me and my wife.  We made our willpower checks and did not buy a book.

 

Black Watch Pass

 

Found this in St. Georges.  Disappointing.  No Dragons whatsoever

This was a great tour.  Got to see most of the island.  Spent about 45 minutes wandering around Hamilton and St. Georges.  Not quite enough time to enjoy a lunch unfortunately.

 

Because of the Ferry, St. George was quiet.  It was great.

Oh, I should add it that I saw very little Fiona damage.  Had i not tracked the storm like i did, I wouldn’t have known the island got hit.  They’re that good.  Friday Morning, 70% of the island lost power.  Sunday morning, pretty much everyone got their power back.

Is the liquor store on the ship well stocked? Do they have Blanton's bourbon? Thanks in advance. We're boarding on 10/13 for a B2B.

I am not the best person to ask.  I can ask, but not sure where as i think some bars don’t stock everything.  Also, they get supplies after each cruise so what we have now may not be true when you cruise.

 

Or are you asking about the actual

liquor store onboard.  I can’t check that until tomorrow as the store won’t open until we leave tomorrow.

I talked to guest services.  They will take care of all requirements for Canada they say, it including the required testing.  They said tomorrow.  I was worried because check in was checked out and I had not completed that portion of it.  They said that will be taken care of at the same time.

 

Masks are in rooms, but i do not believe i saw sanitizer.

Did they test today?  We received an e-mail today from Royal remining us we still needed to fill out the ArrCan.

I have not been given any notification yet.  I already completed Arrivecan.  My wife is going to the room right now.  If there’s a notification, she will tell me, though i forgot two days is tomorrow, not today.  I’ve already forgotten what day it is.

[Rogueperson]

I hadn’t planned on stopping at Johnny Rockets, but when i got back from the tour, i hadn’t had lunch.  As i said, the tour didn’t give quite enough time for a proper

lunch so i didnt eat until i got back on the ship.  The UDP gave me an option for a snack there.

 

I love me some chili cheese fries.

 

 

Just enough to tide me over until dinner tonight.

 

Afterwards we went to the Diamond Lounge.  Forgot they had some food too.  One thing i found thats awesome i never had before.  They had a rice krispie treat mixed with fruity pebbles.  Genius!

Thanks.   We're testing tomorrow also.   Hope all goes well and glad to see you're having a good time.

Your pictures are great!  Did the tour take you over the entire Island?

Most of it.  We made it all the way to St. George which is on the other side of the island.  The ferry port is being renovated so the ferry service has been suspended since July.  The residents are mad because they are

losing half their tourist season and they initially said it would take 5 weeks in July and its still shut down.

Great live review thanks for posting we will be in Bermuda next year. Your tour looked great can you tell me who you booked it through? We hate those large coach tours and I see you stated mini bus.
