Rare Jim_Iain Posted May 6 Author #1380 Share Posted May 6 Iain got the dreaded SSSS You have been selected for special screening. Pat downs numerous times. Residue scans of hand baggage etc. Global Entry only 3 on line. Real Quick. Regular security had a couple 100 but looked to be moving. Everything is facial recognition. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike981 Posted May 6 #1382 Share Posted May 6 I don't care how long a trip you two take, it never seems long enough. I don't feel I am alone in saying that it is a sad day when you wrap up your trip. Thank you again for sharing your world with us Jim. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catspaw1 Posted May 6 #1385 Share Posted May 6 Thanks for the wonderful TR. Really enjoyed following it. Did you use the gopro underwater? I may have missed it if you did. Is it worth buying one for underwater photography? We are going to the Galapagos next year with Celebrity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldsmip115 Posted May 6 #1386 Share Posted May 6 It is truly a sad day for me when your adventure ends. I so love following along and living vicariously through your posts and your pictures. They are truly a gift to so many people, Jim. One of these days I plan to book an iconic suite. I will keep you posted. Right now we only have 1 cruise booked which is an Olivia charter on HAL. safe travels home, my friends! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My muscles were super tired but never cramped for such a strenuous day. That was my first real hike for that far ... That's one of my favoirte flavors of LMNT. It was originally recommened to me by a cardiology/Electrophysiology Nurse Practitioner. It works well for me. Have you tried the chocolate? I mix it with my decaf in the morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DaKahuna Posted May 6 #1390 Share Posted May 6 7 hours ago, Jim_Iain said: I would like to thank everyone that has followed along and participated. What a fun time we had. I hope you have a safe and uneventful trip home. I will be thinking of you and Ian while having my pistachio roll in Luminae here shortly. We are scheduled to arrive in Hiroshima at 1300 so a nice leisurely start this morning. Look forward to following along on your next adventure. As I said when I did my first live review, you are the one that inspired me to share our experiences with our fellow CC members. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We so enjoyed having him as CD on the Connie around 2009. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a much wider selection than that in Michael's Club early last month! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare CTSandy Posted May 7 #1395 Share Posted May 7 Thank you so much for sharing your adventures and wonderful pictures! I’m sad that tomorrow there won’t be any chapters to look forward to. Your comment about mince and tatties made me look up some recipes for it and I’m going to be trying it! Safe flight home and I look forward to your future travels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It tastes like the have changed the butter to a butter / spread mix and have recently cut down the size of the butter mold. The more they cut back "standard" items the more they are shifting away from Luxury to Denny's attention to detail and quality. THE FIRST RESORTS AT SEA STAR RATED BY FORBES TRAVEL GUIDE - Celebrity’s sleek, contemporary ships embody everything you’d expect from a high-end resort. In fact, Celebrity is the world’s first cruise line to be Star Rated by Forbes Travel Guide. I’m curious, other than the standard post cruise survey, has Celebrity ever contacted you directly to follow up for more detail? Wonderful review, thank you for sharing this!
