It was not empty. Lots of tourists and seemingly an equal number of roving sellers of beads, statues, fabric, etc. My biggest takeaway was the contrast between the island’s colorfulness and the atrocities committed

He is the guardian on our excursion today. When I showed him your post, he said “oh-the Clarks. Tell them “Cheers!”

Isn’t that a day early? Thought yall were 3 days behind.

We are in Gorée Island & Dakar! Much to my surprise given it’s been removed from most (all?) itineraries over the last few years.

I wasn’t on that cruise…this was on Dawn (maybe Star?) and we played out back. We also had some fun LCR play on Celebrity Millennium on our transpacific where they gave us a conference room.

That is our Max, along with Sam Brown the Guest Services Manager. Both of whom have been great! Well except for Max’s jokes IYKYK😂

So only two days behind. When do you arrive London. Is it a day early also?

When do you get to Dakar? Are you still two days behind us? We are scheduled to arrive there on 19 April.

WOW, four days!!! The 2nd scavenger hunt on Sky was yesterday and had a 30min time limit. Good luck to all who participate. Our choir is preparing for their 2nd performance (if you don’t count the flash mob they did during one of our guest entertainer’s show) on the 23rd before we arrive in Agadir. The first one was conducted by Bruce our CD before he got sick. This time a guest is conducting-he was a choir director pre-retirement. I suspect that the Star Theatre will again be packed! According to a post on the site that cannot be named, the buoy was removed in 2020!

No issues so far on Viking and in fact Max, our shore excursion manager mentioned in his port talk yesterday about Dakar (where we will be tomorrow) that guests should have dollar bills if they wish to pay for souvenirs and suggested stopping by the pool bar at 3:30 today if anyone need to change larger bills. 😂 Also have never had any issues on NCL where on one TA our pot was typically over $100!

Long time no post….Are y’all still back there?

Actually the first promos on the World Cruise came out in March or April 2023. I know because I missed it and didn’t see until August. Someone on our (Sky) rollcall told me that I was late. 😂

Only 10 for LCR today but Linda was still happy to head back to her stateroom with an extra $27! Could be you tomorrow. 3:30 pool bar, bring 3 one dollar bills-no experience necessary😂

I’ve confirmed with my sources that while Viking Corporate approved our deviation to Null Island, it had one caveat. Sky was required to send a tender ahead last night with a cloaking cape to cover the buoy so we couldn’t see it. The cloak is rigged to self destruct at midnight so that the buoy will be visible in three (or is it two?) days. If you go to the stern then you may be able to see the cape when it starts burning (🎼insert mission impossible self destruct music here🎶) #NeptuneGetsEverything😂 Thanks @PeterPan48 for making me aware of this plot.

Janet went home with an extra $54 today after LCR! Join us tomorrow at 3:30 at the pool bar and you could be the lucky one🤞 No experience necessary-just 3 one dollar bills (Janet will have plenty of change if you need to break a larger note😂)
