Rare arxcards Posted April 6 #54 Share Posted April 6 I am not sure they had changed their destination to Tangalooma, and were just looking to get out of the weather overnight. Plenty of time to get to Eden for tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted April 6 #55 Share Posted April 6 Yes, I think they were just avoiding the worst of the seas. The bad weather was heading SE so going north for a bit was probably wise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, someone approached me and couldn't work out where they knew my face from. They were from Port Macquarie and cruise a lot. Anyone else on CC I could be missing?

Our luggage was extremely late being delivered so after dinner straight back to room for us as I was starting to get concerned, and we didn’t look great as we could not change or freshen up, so didn’t hang around anywhere last night.

resordanis Posted April 7 #66 Share Posted April 7 (edited) On another note. Waiting for coffee this morning and there were quite a few disgruntled Elite passengers complaining about downgraded benefits. Not much they can do about it……but heard them say they would speak to the Captain 🤣. It was my laugh for the morning.

Rule #1 Always take a change of clothes, plus whatever you need to freshen up, in your carry-on. We've had to resort to using ours once. Oddly enough that was on Royal, out of Barcelona in 2017. We dropped our bags off around 10:30am so they had plenty of time to get them to us. They arrived just as we were leaving our cabin, around 7pm, for our pre-dinner drink. 🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted April 7 #69 Share Posted April 7 We always have a change in carry on and our swimmers, hit the hot tubs before most people can even get their swimmers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare lyndarra Posted April 7 #70 Share Posted April 7 On 4/5/2024 at 4:12 PM, MicCanberra said: Lyndarra will be out windsurfing on that. Was out on the board yesterday in a stiff nor'westerly. It was great, on the foil most of the time, did about 20klms. Bounced off a lot of huge jelly blubbers which appeared in their thousands ealier this year but have thinned down now. About a month ago one our guys smashed into something under water. He believes was a shark. It bent the 115cm alloy fuselage of his foil. And last Saturday he spotted a small hammerhead. But wait, there's more, yesterday another rider hit something very very hard, again, likely another a shark, which smashed his carbon fibre front wing and snapped its fuselage. On each of those occasions they would be travelling at about 15-20kts (28-37kph). Luckily they both escaped injury - don't know about the sharks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted April 7 #71 Share Posted April 7 Maybe save the sharks and surf above the water.? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well in line this morning my friends overheard a conversation from some people fretting about the fact they have to get off in Brisbane as they thought the ship was returning to Sydney. They had no idea the ship had commenced the repo to Alaska. So therefore they had made no arrangements to return to Sydney. They assumed very wrongly in was a round trip. 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG that’s beats mine, by far! BTW first theatre show cancelled tonight due to technical issues. Last time this happened on Royal Caribbean, we had no shows at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
