Rare Silver Spectre Posted March 29, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Since SS is providing our air for this trip we are technically underway. Sitting in the BA B Lounge on our way to Philly and then down to San Juan. Looking forward to being back with Colin and Daniel tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Silver Spectre Posted March 30, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thanks for your kind thoughts. Arrived at SJU at 21:30 last night and met by SS rep at the baggage belt. One of our three couples bags were the last off the belt so made it to the Sheraton at about 10:30. Happy to fall into bed at about 4 am UK time. A little cloudy this morning, but 25c.

Rare Silver Spectre Posted March 30, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted March 30, 2018 A quick trip from the Sheraton to the Port, surprisingly asked for our cruise tickets by the Port Security, first time in many years. One poor lady had to delve into her suitcase to extract it. Met Antonio who was stretching his legs, he is on for the crossing, but both Colin and Daniel leave in Ft Lauderdale. A shame for us as we had expected them to be on for the crossing. Anyway, on the ship by 12:45, crept into the suite which was ready. Only thing missing is a note for the Meet and Mingle, so perhaps not today. Lunch and a glass of Sav Blanc beckons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camillus112 Posted March 30, 2018 #8 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Happy crossing, Silver Specter! With regards to the M&M note, make sure to look beneath the writing mat on the desk... I missed it once as I found the invitation too late!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Spinnaker2, we left San Juan at 6pm, approx 280 guests on board including quite a few kids. Hit the swell outside the heads and we are now rocking and rolling our way towards St Barts for a French Easter Saturday.

Master Echo Posted March 31, 2018 #16 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Hapoy Easter Silver Spectre and Mrs Spectre. Lovely pics, particularly the sun on the water at St Barts. I didnt make this port due to a minor earthquake creating too much swell for the tender operation. Hope the weather remains calm and all good wishes for your bridge!

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Apart from Abramovich's there is one other monster, a medium sized one, a large sailing ship and one other docked. Only one hotel open I think at present, but most villas still rented. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

les37b Posted April 1, 2018 #22 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Eclipse was docked in San Juan last March when we were on the Wind. St Barth's was our favourite as the bucket regatta was on.

Rare Silver Spectre Posted April 1, 2018 Author #25 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Lovely day in Tortola, British Virgin Ils, nice people, but such a shame to see the extensive property and boat hurricane damage. Lots of new roofs going on and the marina life is thriving again. Well done SS with a good, complimentary tour and an excellent local guide.
