  1. Aerial Tram (booked want to change)

    Eco Adventure

    Meet the Sloths

    (All ship excursions)

     

    Trying to choose. I am 60, mobile but out of shape, and afraid of heights. The Aerial Tram for 45 minutes each way scares the hell out of me! On the Eco Adventure, I might be better able to handle 10 mins on an aerial tram. Both say moderately strenuous. I would love to see the sloths,  but it says a canoe ride. I don't see me rowing a canoe. This excursion says easy tho, so does that mean you get in but somebody else rows?  

     

    We leave on the Eurodam this Sunday, the 15th. Costa Rica is the 22nd. All excursions are currently open. What are your thoughts on the 3 excursions, and how difficult to change?

     

    Thanks so much!!

     

     

  2. I love Grand Turk. It's my fav place to go to just lay on the beach and play in the water. After GT, my face is Half Moon Cay. I dont know why so my carnival cruises are going to Princess Cays now. I went in May and was disappointed. We had a cabana and I thought the swimming area near my cabana was awful. A lot of big rocks. Going again in Dec (only option avail). Skipping the cabana this time. I hope I like it better. 

  3. I pack almost everything in 1 or 2 gallon ziplocs. Most importantly, any liquids. That way they don't open and get all over everything.  With clothes, I also roll everything, then put into ziplocs. I try to organize by outfit, but it's not as important to me because I like to unpack everything when I get there. When my kids were little, I put each day's outfit (with undies and accessories) into it's own ziploc bag. Many fit into the quart size bags. Made mornings so easy!  I then press the air out and they end up flat so easier to get into the suitcase. YMMV.

     

     

     

     

  4. I've read articles recently regarding the influx of Venezuelan refugees into the ABC islands. Does anyone know the impact this may be having on tourism? I've also read that the Venezuelan opposition is looking to set up in Curacao.  I was thinking about booking on the Norwegian Dawn cruise for March 2020 and now I'm hesitant.  Thoughts? 

  5. I'm cruising with 4 other couples. 1 of the couples booked late and couldn't get into the early seating with the rest of us. I plan to go to the Maitre D as soon as I get on board to see if I can get them moved. I've been told to tip the Maitre D $20. Can anyone walk me through the best way to do this so I can feel comfortable? Thanks!
