plaidside Posted September 3, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I just got off the Explorer 8/31. We were Green #6 tags out of 24. We didn’t get off the ship until 9:50 AM. Now we had to wait 10 min. for a bus to shuttle us over to the luggage area. While we were waiting they wheeled a body wrapped in plastic off the ship into to a van! We did not get through customs and to my car until 10:40. The custom agent said there were multiple problems that backed everything up. Anyone know what happened? I feel sorry for the people who had high numbered tags; they must have gotten off the ship really late. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kiinda feel sorry for the family that lost a loved one on the cruise Joe. Wow, just Wow is about all I can say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaidside Posted September 3, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Other than that, how was the cruise? This was my 9th time on the Explorer. We had a great time doing nothing!:D We know some of the crew members and it is like old home week when we get on board. The weather was very good and it was the smoothest sailing we ever had.

Joe Great, glad to hear it. I am sailing on her this month and was just looking for a little feedback. Every now and then someone posts that she is looking old and worn out.........lol.

Joe Thanks for the info Joe!! I will be going on the EOS in October and you say you have been on the ship many times before and knew a good amount of the crew. Do you happen to know a bartender named Shaka and if so was he still on the ship? He usually worked in the sports bar or the pub on the promanade deck.

lakeariel Posted September 6, 2013 #7 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I was on the same sailing. There were actually two deaths on board. One was a seventeen year old girl. Conflicting reports of the cause so I think that trumps people having to wait to get off!! There were many problems on the ship which I posted about a few days ago. If you go back a few days you can view what I posted. I still had a great time. The only place I feel looks warn are the staterooms. The sofa in my room was dirty and the rug had a big hole in it. Other than that I think the ship is in great shape! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
