Hi, I’m really enjoying reading about your daily adventures, trivia, crafts, meals, shore excursions, plus seeing all the photos (which I’m able to access from the link in post #208). The calm seas and sunset look amazing. I’ll be joining in Cape Town and wonder if there’s a way to reserve a spot on a trivia team, an early seating dining table, the watercolor class, or anything else that might be tricky finding a spot if I wait until aboard. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. After reading this blog (and that of G and J Travels), I feel like I know a bit about the ship, activities, plus several of the ports, and can’t wait to be there with you all myself, in just a couple of weeks. Keep having a great time, entertaining us with tales of your adventures and time aboard, and see you at the meet and greet. Thanks for all the info, take care, Vicki 1946

Congratulations, Kathi, on your negative test and release from captivity! I am so glad you are now out and about and free to enjoy the rest of the cruise. It's been very enlightening following this blog, hearing about the cruise including the really unfortunate experience of quarantine. I'll be joining you all in Cape Town and very much looking forward to it. If anyone would be so kind, would it be possible to find out if I can sign up early for any of the watercolor classes starting after Cape Town? Thanks also for posting the itinerary showing all the crafts projects, which look great. I know yellow fever vax has been discussed a lot but I'm wondering if, when boarding in Montreal or Ft Lauderdale, HAL required seeing yellow fever vax waivers or the yellow international certificates of vaccination showing dates within or beyond 10 years? Thanks so much for all the postings and happy cruising! Vicki

That is so interesting that you are boarding mid-segment. How do you go about doing that? Do you need special permission and can you choose any port in which to board? Thanks! Vicki
