  1. If you have been to caves in Kentucky you might be underwhelmed. Much smaller than east coast caves. I was but Crystal Cave is small and interesting. The tour guides provide good stories. Fantasy Cave is pretty meh in my opinion. You don't have to do both.
  2. Sneakers are fine.
  3. TripAdvisor (sorry Cruise Critic) is wrong. Calico Jacks is open. They do close in the off season but I can tell from the port cam they are open now.
  4. Up to 7 can fit in a taxi. I am assuming you are docking at the Dockyard, There are two other possible docks so my info is based on making that presumption. Plenty of taxis available at the Dockyard. The caves are at the other end of Bermuda. The fares just increased so I had to do math but a taxi direct would possibly be $90. We usually take a ferry to St. George or Hamilton and then a taxi which mean $5 per person for the ferry to St. George and for 5 about $35 to the area where the caves are. The Swizzle Inn is there. Maybe $45 from Hamilton if you take the ferry there then a taxi. Sorry all taxi fares are math since they raised them April 1 and so I have not taken any rides with the new rates or found a cheat sheet. You could also take a bus from St. George or Hamilton. Be advised that the caves are 88 steps down and 88 steps back up. If any of your family has mobility issues they might have difficulty.
  5. When I took an Uber from Newark Penn it was less expensive than a taxi but Uber fares might have gone up. The taxi fare was a flat rate about $50 so it could be looked up. I took taxis before Uber existed so I don’t know the current taxi rate. Uber was a lot less, $25 but rates could have changed
  6. You should have gotten double points for the no show. Did you call Crown and Anchor and ask for them? If you didn’t you can still call.
  7. I don't think Bermuda would allow that plus the lifeguards on the ship would not be properly trained for Bermuda conditions like Man o Wars. What NCL could do is subsidize Bermuda extending their lifeguard season at Horseshoe. Or they could just warn passengers that there are no lifeguards at Horseshoe until May 1. All the south shore beaches can have rip tides so there could be a general warning lifeguards or not. Most of the time I have not felt strong currents at Horseshoe but conditions change. The worst current I encountered was once at Elbow Beach and there won't be lifeguards there at any time.
  8. You need to reduce your file size below 1MB. There are various ways to do that depending on file format and what devices you use.
  9. The parade is at 7:30 and there are ferries at 8:30, 9:00 and 10:30 so no need to miss the parade. I have taken the 9 and 10:30 ferries with no issues. The last time I took the 9 and it was not overcrowded. When I took the 10:30 ferry they had an extra ferry so the ferry was not crowded. Don''t know if they still do that. Also the most interesting thing in the parade is the dancers. So you only need to watch them for 10 to 15 minutes and then can go get a drink, food or catch a return ferry. If you have been before like you have skipping Harbour Nights is logical.
  10. Probably their customer base who have iOS 17 is similar to that of the general population. About 75%. The actual developers don’t have to know anyone who runs an earlier version or every model iPhone. There are simulators. Those run on a Mac. Also there is an Apple test app TestFlight. I am beta testing for an app. The developers send me an email. I open the app and then update from TestFlight. They can see from that app any issues when I use the app. They can see what version of iOS I am running their app on. I can also provide feedback. The developers can also contract with a third party company to test their app.
  11. Just an FYI since this is a revived thread is that Harbour Nights this year 2024) are from May 15 to August 28. Wednesday evening in Hamilton starting at 7 pm.
  12. You can take the #6 from St. George. The problem is that it only runs once an hour. It has a reputation of being unpredictable.
  13. A large busness with hundreds of thousands of customers can afford to test. And it is not retro. iOS 16 is still supported. iOS 16 was incremental. It should take minimal effort. IOS 17 has been out less than a year so requiring it is short sited . There are thousands of apps that still get updates and run as far back as iOS 13.
