On this current cruise the port talks have taken place at 16:15 the day before. You do get a lot of additional information as mentioned in previous posts, but you have to sit through all the excursions. The delayed video showing allows you to fast forward, which gets you to your booked excursion quicker

Currently on a cruise and the pool area is hot and humid, the explorers lounge is a touch chilly, but the rest of the ship is very comfortable. Today it’s 30°C (86°F) and very humid outside

Solo Guitarist still part of the entertainment onboard?
shipboy replied to C-sea's topic in Viking Ocean
There’s a solo guitarist on the current cruise we are on and she is very good -
Be careful Clay, Tenerife is a favourite haunt of the UK tourist 😀

Who is the CD on this cruise?
-
Our date for booking excursions was 8pm on Christmas night, they opened exactly at that time. Fortunately the Christmas ‘spirit’ didn’t stop us from booking the excursions we wanted 😀
-
It’s provided for you, no need to bring any and I suspect they wouldn’t want people to bring their own
-
The second leg is a repositioning, so there aren’t any previous roll calls that I can see. FL seems to be a starting/stopping point, so I can’t see any excursions from that location. I will ask when we are on board, but we can always book an excursion on our own or enjoy the ship until the newbies embark when it isn’t as busy

Fort Lauderdale

What about a same day turnaround, has anyone experienced Viking putting on an excursion for those remaining onboard?
-
Can’t they open the side windows? They did that on Jupiter
-
Clay I’ve just learned online how to play this game, I’m in on our SA crossing next year 👍 p.s. the guy spelt centre as ‘center’, how strange 😀

New York steak in WC, cooked medium rare
-
I wonder if HK is mentioned only because that’s where you would fly into/out of and are then transported to/from Schenzhen. It isn’t too far between both locations and when I lived there, we used to take a day trip to Schenzhen for shopping

The invoice is normally emailed to you, it is not included in MVJ

Many years ago, whilst on a business trip, we did the Queen Mary tour. We also tried to do the Spruce Goose, but they’d moved it without telling us. They also closed McDonnell Douglas after our trip, but I don’t think it was anything to do with me 😀

Meiji Shrine (Harajuka is close by, said to be the area where the world’s fashions start) there’s a McDonalds there too 😀 Imperial Palace Shibuya crossing Tokyo Tower (have dinner there in McDonalds 😀) and many more, check out the tours offered by v i a t o r

It’s still available on the UK website

Our excursions were planned to open Christmas Day at 8pm. I received an MVJ notification on Christmas Eve, to inform me that they were now open for selection. They weren’t, they opened at 8pm on Christmas Day !!

Our Southern Atlantic crossing last year was quite rough when we entered the Med
-
We are going in the opposite direction in February, London to LA, and have booked 2K and 3K on a BA flight with their club suite (unless there’s an aircraft swap). You can always get up and chat to your partner and your husband can easily get anything out of the overhead locker. Basically it shouldn’t be a problem
-
It’s very nice, you won’t be disappointed
-
The Shang is a very good hotel, especially if you are on a Horizon floor, but if anyone else is arriving early, the Langham is also very good and within walking distance of the cruise terminal (via the shopping mall)

The captain was on Jupiter with us last year

We will be on the Star in March, try and keep it tidy please 😀
