Majesty still in port?

kalos · March 4, 2013

The weather looks lovely in Madeira today :rolleyes:Mind you it also looks nice in Gran Canaria :)

I wonder if they had the formal night last night :confused:

That would be a first ..A formal night ,you can get off the ship ;)

At least they are giving the sea sickness tablets a few days off :rolleyes::D

CRUISIN LINDA · March 4, 2013

Rain on the webcams in Madeira and Gran Canaria now :(:(

Lovely and sunny here :) meeow :o

Lovely and sunny here :) meeow :o

You are correct Linda. Chucking it down and extremely windy! :eek:

The hatches are being battened down. Shutters have been fixed to the windows at the front of the ship (Fireworks I think) ready to cross to Tenerife this evening. Was speaking to Leroy the maitre D at lunch time and he said we had to go, we could not stay there. All the smaller ports are closed!! There are pilots at Tenerife to help us into the harbour but we might not get in! Hope he was just trying to scare me.

We did have a formal night and it went well. Drinks service in both the MDRs are very slow and getting things fixed in the cabin are also slow (non existent) up to now.

There are NO notices about giving donations to the crew fund at reception.

Still haven't seen Mary!

Hope you appreciate me giving up my time to report in........I am missing the towel folding lessons! :rolleyes:;). Seriously, though, they have put extra activities on for anyone who wants to join in.

I ordered 2 gin and tonics and got 2 gins and 1 can to share, therefore charged for 3 drinks but if you order 1 gin and tonic you are just charged for 1 drink. Anything with fresh (carton) orange eg gin and orange is charged for 2 drinks. Last night we were charged for 4 drinks (2 glasses) on one card.

Got to go...wish us luck for tonight and thanks to you all for your best wishes. :)

CRUISIN LINDA · March 4, 2013

Thanks for all the updates. Of course we all appreciate your dedication to duty :D:D

Hope the crossing is not too rough :eek:

Little Nell · March 4, 2013

You sound in good spirits, Jakanne :)

I hope things are not too nasty with the crossing.

Take care :)

I have been reading these posts with both interest and fear and hoping that the weaher turns out good for you.

I have just heard from my cousin who lives in Teneriife, she says its been bad but posted 2 hours ago that weather changing now, calmer and sun starting to shine, so hopefully the seas calmer for the journey.

safe journey thoughts are with you, it is to be our first on Majesty in a couple of weeks and hope for calmer waters and nicer weather.

CRUISIN LINDA · March 4, 2013

They have just left for Tenerife :) Let's hope they have calm seas :)

Yikes! Looks a bit wild! :eek: :(

CRUISIN LINDA · March 4, 2013

I am so glad I went when I did! Still, it's not far to Tenerife.

I'm beginning to wonder if I did right to book the Braemar for this time next year :confused: It is only half the size of the Majesty :eek:

Little Nell · March 4, 2013

Yikes! Looks a bit wild! :eek: :(

There would appear to be a splodge of blue between GC and Tenerife on the map. Let's hope it is not too bad for them.

Oh yes - well spotted Little Nell! Could be in the lee of the winds - it's to be hoped so. That looks better.

So glad the weather is improving in the Atlantic at last.

The same storm is due to hit us here in Southern Spain today so people sailing in the Western Med at the moment are in for a bumpy ride too.

Well they have made it to Tenerife :):) Looks like they did some big loops, judging by the vessel's track on marine traffic!

Hope you don't get too bad a storm in Spain, campolady.

Oh dear Linda ,Do you think the captain let Jakanne have a go at steering the ship ;) Look at them loops:eek:

Last time I saw loops like that Delboy was on his JetSki :D

I can't find the Majesty at all on marine traffic now :eek:

BTW I'm glad someone is still speaking to me :D:D

Rebel Rouser · March 5, 2013

I'm still speaking to you Linda ;)

Majesty is still in Tenerife :D

CRUISIN LINDA · March 5, 2013

Hi RR

How did you put that picture on? I tried this morning to save it but when I right clicked on the picture the vessel's track disappeared :eek:

CRUISIN LINDA · March 5, 2013

According to sailwx she is underway and just north of Gran Canaria.

Why can't I get her on marine traffic?

Rebel Rouser · March 5, 2013

Ahh, that's nice of you to say that Shirley. Cheered me up (Oxford United just lost 4-0 :eek: at home)
