Or such a good idea We are in middle of summer, this is the best time to attempt. Not for the faint of heart.

I think the ship will keep adjusting the course slightly to whatever’s most comfortable. It’s still pretty wavy and rocky though! Right now, we’re just hanging out watching! Edited to add: another big shudder! Feels like we’re driving through a pot-hole! No Mariner, but I'd think faster is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The med makes me dizzy and sick. Have some for Bucky, but he has not taken it yet. He requested the liquid, which works immediately when needed. We're you able to get scopolamine patches? Or are they something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura, did you know that is one of the songs The Ohio State Marching Band plays 😉! It was a student that suggested it to the band and wrote the arrangement that was performed at half time in 1965. It became a crowd favorite and the step the band marches to it when they play the song is called the "sloopy step" 🙂 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I suppose I could check it out...but I am really not into the drugs thing, since the first time I was on a cruise ship many years ago, and found out the Dramamine patches made me sick...I don't even try. Guess I am not much into the meds things...more of a "natural" girl I guess. My apple/banana smoothie today...was just the thing for a butterfly tummy. Perfect. 😉 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzyluvs2cruise Posted January 11 #2149 Share Posted January 11 (edited) 4 hours ago, Jimbo said: This is a report from someone that is onboard now: Passenger log ocean-date 4530762024 Seranade of the Seas. Barreling through Drakes Passage at 17 knots heading due south towards Elephant Island Antartica. Winds 42 Kts SW. While We are definitely feeling The affects of the wayward, unforgiving seas. Most of us were well prepared and expecting the ruckus movement. Some, however are simply not cut out to be on the open seas. This is apparently on display by the lessor amount of passengers being visible about. Presumably choosing to be confined in their state rooms undoubtedly riding out the movement of the vessel in the comfort of their beds. Luckily motion sickness is not something I’ve ever been afflicted with. Truth of it all I quite enjoy the movement. We have all been on whale watch since yesterday following the announcement by Captain Sig of the spotting of a Grey whale off the starbird side. Unfortunately few of us were able to observe said whale . It’s is expected there will be many more to spot over the next several days. Here a few different vantage points. In my opinion The ship is handling it all very well. Definitely some creeks and splashes but she appears to be strongly built for such a voyage, navigating the swells with ease and vigorously cutting through the winds. Stay tuned more to come…same Bat time, same Bat channel!
