Ruby princess photos 03/30 cruise

[Off2China]

How did you manage to get so many nice pics with no people in them? Must have been early AM or late PM? Thanks for sharing. We'll be on her next month, if the volcanic ash will let us fly.

Amazing photos. I was looking forward to this. Thanks for sharing and for all the advice you have passed along on this board. We used your earlier recommendation on a cabin for our upcoming Ruby (aft balcony). I told DH "This is what Colo said, 40 some cruises he would know...".

 

Best regards,

Some of it was due to easter weekend as far as the shore pictures.

Thanks for the spectacular pictures!

 

I especially appreciate the Ruby pics, as I have not yet been on this class of ship.

 

Thanks again!

Loved the photos of the Ruby. We will be on her Nov 18th so getting a great preview was appreciated. The lobster and Porterhouse looked fabulous,too!! We will be on the Saphire this summer and hope the food selection is comparable.

Great photos, really enjoyed seeing the Ruby again and all those beautiful islands. I knew after seeing your wonderful Alaska cruise photos that these would be as good. You did not disappoint. Thanks :)

Hi there Keith (Colo Cruiser),

 

AnitaMarie (DP) & I were on the boards yesterday when you first started posting your pics. We started looking at them but then decided to wait until today to finish so that we could see them all and then post a comment. :p

 

Let me first start by saying thank you for taking the time to post these beautiful pics...they are AWESOME!! You took me along with you on this trip (so to speak :rolleyes:) and that's what I love so much about Cruise Critic! I also want to let you know that, like some of the previous posters has also said (maybe not in these words), you are my CC "hero"! :D I read your posts all the time and they are always very informative and usually "spot on". Since this will only be my 8th cruise overall (3rd on Princess which includes 2 inaugural short sailings), I still consider myself to be learning the cruise "world" and I know that I have alot more sailing to do to even be considered in the same "class" as you are ;)!

 

These pics have inspired us and I can only hope that, when we sail on the Emerald in June, we can capture our trip the way (or even close to the way) that you have!

 

Thanks again and happy sailing to all,

 

Angel :)

Loved looking at your pics - particularly the onboard ones. Going on our first Princess cruise in September - can't wait.

Keith so many thanks for posting your pictures, they were all GREAT! Makes it doubly difficult to wait until next March again. I just loved the pictures of the finch but best of all were those of the hummingbird. Just fantastic!!!!

It’s hard to beat a sunset while at sea.

 

 

 

Ugly is as ugly does!

 

I’ve no idea what kind of a tree this was but the pods & flowers were beautiful.

While docked in Antigua these were being off loaded from the Explorer of The Seas

For those of you who have never seen MUTS live this is it -

 

And all too soon it was over and we were left waiting where we started in the pier parking lot for our ride! :(

Thank you and you are quite welcome!! I enjoy giving our view of things and thats what makes it great. Everyone looks at and presents things in a different way so you are correct about CC, its a wealth of information and an awesome ride. Because I enjoy reading others perspective I have fun returning the favor.

Ciao!

[Colo Cruiser]

Thanks Barb!! They are great!

I had a little glitch resizing my photos, I think my camera res is set wrong as they came out huge so I had to resixde them as they were uploaded, and did not quite get the clarity that my Golden Alaska ones had.

[kywildcatfanone]

Very nice pictures! I love the ones of the birds, and it looked like you had great weather. Wonderful!

I believe that shot was taken from the Movies Under The Stars seating area Deck 18. But, since I suffer from CRS :eek: it might have been the Sun Terrace Deck 17.

Excellent review, Love the pictures. One of the things you have captured brilliantly is the little details of being on a cruise ship. Those of us who have memories of cruising can feel the ambiance, newbies can get a great preview. I feel like I am right there with you, thanks for the ride!!!:):)

Great pics!

Thanks for posting the pics! Looks like you all had a terrific time!

 

My favorite picture is the side view of the Ruby at Princess Cays. Looks like the water was cold; there are very few people in it. ???

 

Welcome home. :)

thanks for your wonderful pictures!!
