TxTeach79's Pearl European Adventure LIVE - 6/24

[odie1024]

Just an FYI:

 

In 2018, plans were announced to ban all but zero-emissions cruise ships from three of Norway's fjords: Aurlandsfjord, Nærøyfjord and Geirangerfjord, starting in 2026.

 

This is why I made sure to book my Norway cruise for next year. Not sure what cruise ships are ready for this.

I'm not feeling that hungry right now, thanks but I'll pass.

Easy now!  Much like Carmela Soprano you're verging...

@TxTeach79 nothing wrong with a relaxing evening watching a movie in the cabin!  R&R is important!

Yes! I told him that even Party P needs rest. 😅

I definitely do! In fact, we were planning on booking Sky Princess to Norway this summer before this cruise sort of fell in our laps…. Thanks for the info! You see this, @HelloItsMeB??

Yes, I’m ready!

Yes, I saw a Gary Bembridge video discussing this. Hopefully the timeline works for us, we’ll see!

[TxTeach79]

a solid twelve hours later, off I go! B will meet up later, nothing but time this morning 

 

 

 

[TxTeach79]

Up to Spinnaker to take in the view headed toward Santorini. Best forward facing view you have on this ship. (WiFi is still brutal as far as uploading pics, a good 3-4 minutes each)

 

 

no, that’s not a floating toaster - it’s Epic!

 

 

 

 

[TxTeach79]

We’ve got some real wiggle this morning for the first time this cruise, and this is the perfect spot to enjoy it 

 

 

 

[TxTeach79]

a little vertical exploration

Cinnamon Roll time has come 

 

[TxTeach79]

Garden Cafe is full. Looks like 9:30 is the sweet spot. Got directed into La Cucina, which was 80% full by the time I left 

 

 

[TxTeach79]

Wine pairing begins soon in Le Bistro

 

 

violinist again tonight. Repeat shows with individual performers the last two nights. This one I get because we’ll be in port til late. 
 

[TxTeach79]

B has risen! She’s grumps that the MDR closed at 9:30… thinking of plan B while she gets ready….

[TxTeach79]

O’Sheehans it is!

[TxTeach79]

I think B would buy this by the jug if given the chance 

 

[TxTeach79]

Choppy out there 

 

[TxTeach79]

[TxTeach79]

Oops

Yes, B would.

Looks like Captain has us into Santorini an hour early 

[TxTeach79]

Doesn’t really affect us on our excursion en espanol
