LunaSeaRetreat

We haven't heard much. Something about trying to work things out with immigration to let us off for awhile. That was about 2 hours ago so I don't think that is going to happen. Cape Town had an accident in the wind about a week ago. I think they are being over cautious. Some cargo ships have left and entered port but they are very narrow compared to us. Good luck.

We were supposed to leave Cape Town last night but are still sitting at the dock this morning. Too windy to leave and now it seems windier. Maybe an announcement at 8? Beautiful sunny day except for the wind. Cynthia

Our stop in Richards Bay was just canceled. Pilots boarded by helicopter but left the same way soon after. Too dangerous to dock was the decision. I feel very badly for all the cruisers suppose to leave on Overlands. I'm sure this is a big disappointment to all. Cynthia

Our captain promised us force 8 winds this evening on our way to Richard's Bay. Still smooth sailing for now. Hold on to those hand rails. Cynthia

We have birds but not in every bathroom. I believe the living room is rushing water. I suppose that since we’re on the Neptune we have all the sounds. 😂

We haven’t met yet but I always enjoy your posts. I’ll try to post more when you leave and help keep the thread going. I might even learn to post photos. 😳 Cynthia

We received our second choice in Richard’s Bay. The tours were the same price and length so we’re happy. Received our first choice in the others. Cynthia

Hi Clay, We are on the Neptune and as far as I know no app choice was given. Our room steward was giving them out at about 8:30 when we went to breakfast. I handed it in downstairs and joking said," Don't forget to put the date and time on it." She laughed and said she would and wrote something on my sheet. She put it on top of a neat pile of about 10 forms. Cynthia

Our letter from the hotel manager stated that they are working on uploading the new excursions but didn't say where. Does anyone know where to look for them? I stopped by guest services to see if we would need any vaccinations and they had no idea! Maybe tomorrow... Cynthia

I waved a number of times as I did my laps on deck two. What a beautiful day. Cynthia

We do have TV this morning. Nice warm day with sunshine--no snow expected unlike Delaware. Cynthia

Neptune 6068 has it.

We did this in October 2022. The first day we did the included tour, PANORAMIC ATHENS & ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM. During that tour the guide showed everyone the shuttle stop. So on the turn around day we took the shuttle and did the THE NEW ACROPOLIS MUSEUM & PLAKA DISTRICT on our own with no problem. Cynthia

Hope you have a wonderful cruise. Thanks so much for sharing your adventures. We just started looking at this cruise; it looks wonderful. Cynthia

Thanks so much for your report. We will be on the TA in April. Glad you are having a good cruise. Cynthia
