So today I have my free diamond 24 hour Internet. We are really enjoying the cruise. The food, after all the hoo ha on CC, we have found perfectly fine. Bonaire and curaçao in particular have been great stops and we have done lots of snorkeling and swam with turtles and lots of pretty tropical fish on the coral reefs We enjoyed our first visit to Coco Cay, sharing our visit with Independence. We went to South Beach and saw stingrays and jellyfish 🪼 Today currently hanging out in the DL but just going to the lecture on Titanic Steaming back to Boston on the Atlsntic Coast now so a little cooler. Will post some pics later

That's a lovely story with a happy ending Debbie. The people on this ship have been lovely (and the staff amazing ). We've had a few short visits to the casino, just to spend our limit of $10 a day. In the past we could make it last and even win a bit but last few cruises it only seems to last 30 seconds before it's gone. The Heidi machines seem very popular, which ones do you usually frequent?

Sometimes plus shady side of top deck. Usually by myself as Gary's prefers the gym or cool of the VC lounge. Popped into the DL a few times in the early evening but usually end up in the main part of VC lounge . Here's an up to date pic of us. Had great day in Curaçao today. Swam with wild turtles and tropical fish. Currently enjoying cocktails in town Would love to meet up but I only have WiFi on land Our current view

At our first port, Grand Caymen so have some WiFi in the bar we're in. Day 3, so far great cruise. Serenade is a bit knocked about and rough around the edges, but a grand ship and food so far has been good. Big balcony. Made it to the gym 🏋️ 💪 yesterday. Great day at 7 Mile beach, but it's hot hot hot 🔥

I'm finding it very hot too, though everywhere has air con. We did the riverwalk yesterday too, around 11am to 3pm . I sat out at the pool after for an hour but it was too hot even in the shade 😎 Today we took the free trolley to the Aquarium and then did an hour cruise in the bay. A fabulous nature speaker on board and we saw dolphins 🐬. Just got back to hotel after walking back which was very hot.

Glad for you Dani that the food is better than our Beyond sailing last year and that you're having a good time even though your cousin had to cancel. We flew into Tampa yesterday. Immigration was a breeze, probably our easiest entry into USA . We got a bit confused about the Hyatt hotel shuttle . We followed the signs for hotel shuttles and waited ages in very hot temps but no shuttle. After phoning hotel, apparently you now have to go to an uber pick up area, call the hotel and they send a uber at their expense . Now in downtown hotel and can see cruise ships from our room. Went for a walk by the Riverside today but again very hot and not much shade

A day in Boston before evening transatlantic flight
sgmn replied to sgmn's topic in East Coast Departures
Thank you so much @Dobby36 We're going to go ahead and book this . It sounds a great way to spend the day in Boston without our bags before our evening flight home Thanks for the comprehensive report back Sue -

Mmm bank holiday weekend ? Though would be nice to have a taster on VIrgin -
Not till Tuesday, I'm not an expert but I think we will dodge hurrican Lee, hoping there's not another one brewing when we go up the coast to Boston in 10 days or so @bobmaclibertySorry that some of your family can't make the wedding. Working on an airline ticket desk for decades we always rebooked everyone in the very very rare occasions that a flight was cancelled. Things seem to of changed a lot in the last few years
