I am always impressed by those who can do a live thread. When I'm onboard I am busy taking in the ports, the ship (or a good afternoon nap), I don't know how people make the time to live post. Your posts are appreciated and, of course, it should be secondary to enjoying yourself. 😀

Love your positive attitude -- on all things! 😀

I am always very impressed by the effort you put into making name tags. I'm sorry you didn't get a bigger turn out from your roll call. Wishing you better luck on the next Blackjack Tournament 🤞🤞

What a sad story (and pretty much my worst nightmare.) Maybe they will find the wayward passport tucked into a random slot in a bag. I sure hope so.

See the thread below.

Thanks for this lovely trip blog. I hope you'll bring us along for your September cruise. 😀

@jollyjones You've certainly given us a great teaser! Looking forward to your adventure onboard.

Looking forward to learning all about your trip. I hope you have a good flight.

For the distilled water I email: specialservices@silversea.com You may not get a response but the water should be in your room when you arrive; if not, just ask your butler and it will be provided quickly. As for baggage tags: I believe final info is emailed about 15 days before the cruise but I've never checked if baggage tags are included. I get them at the pier or from from the SS rep for the transfer.

I did a simple google search and found this....

LOL I've rationed books too: Delayed starts or forcing myself not to sit up all night to finish a good thing. I'll have to explore that Gideon Oliver series. Thanks.

I've read all the Harry Bosch stuff. If you like that you may enjoy books by Tana French -- all her books are set in Ireland. I've most enjoyed her first three: In the Woods, The Likeness and Faithful Place. While the books are listed as a series each stands on it's own; generally, a secondary character from one book become the focus of the next book.

Phew! I've found this while you're still on page one! 😜 Looking forward to following your adventure. Enjoy!

Stunning photos! A safari has always been on my list; looks like I'll need to take a break from cruising to make this happen sooner.

Food looks wonderful; and such a great variety. 😋
