That is an interesting geography note about Tahiti and Hawaii. Vic

We walk off at about 6:55 AM and was in a cab by 7:05 Vic

Paul, Very well stated in both posts. Vic

Great video's Paul

Linda and I will also be on this cruise. Looking forward to a great time and seeing all the new things Royal has put on the ship. Vic

I found some magnet night lights on Amazon called Wyze Night Light. They are a three pack and motion sensor light. You can charge they up them using a USB plug. Nice soft light and stay on for about a minute. Work great for both cabin and bathroom night lite. They were less that $20. Vic

Jim_Iain, Enjoyed your review. And sounds like you both had a great time on this new adventure. Linda & I are looking forward to meeting both of you next year on Solstice sailing from Honolulu. Vic

Back in 2008 I was talking with are a TA about an upcoming cruise. And she asked if I wanted to travel insurance for it. For some unknown reason I said yes.. It was the the first time I ever took travel insurance. The day before the cruise in Feb of 2009 Kiser were in Galveston the day before the cruise. That night I had a heart attack and had to miss the cruise. I recovered and doing fine. Then later that year the DW and her sisters were going to take a cruise. One sister was in an auto wreck. They missed their cruise. Travel insureance covered both cruise. Have not cruise without it since Vic
