BON VOYAGE Sea Princess World Cruise 2018

[MicCanberra]

AIS Marine Traffic have them entering the Solent , just off Isle of White . ..as I post . Should have an early arrival in Southampton. Guess there will be a lot of supplies waiting for them to load as well as being a big turnaround and changeover day for many passengers.

Cheers, are we losing anyone here or are they doing the full trip.:D

Bon Voyage to all as they head to Cobh.:cool:

Partners in crime with Garry and Joanne, according to the mug shots on the blogs, good stuff.:cool:

LOL, it is easy enough to do when cruising.

And ye olde Sea Princess is not a big ship, so one bumps into other pax often. so to speak.:hearteyes::*

[MicCanberra]

Even on the larger ships that happens, as you tend to have the same interests and daily patterns.

Before they arrived in Reykjavik, Iceland, they had a nice sunrise:

 

 

 

I just found this webcam capture I saved of them arriving in Reykjavik, Iceland yesterday:

 

 

 

Apparently they had a cold day there!

 

Has anyone been to Reykjavik, Iceland before?? :)

[Kiwi_cruiser]

They now got two days at sea as they head for Nanortalik, Greenland where they will arrive on Thursday...

 

and on Friday they visit Qaqortoq, Greenland before they get another two sea days...

Reading Jo and Garrys blogs, they got ripped off badly at Francescos Winery on their Salerno visit. $200 bucks each for a bite of lunch and glass of wine. You have watch some of these private tour operators. Good the winery bosses got smashed on Tripadvisor.:evilsmile:

 

They tried to charge an Aussie pax on the tour $50 for a bowl of plain Spag, because they were too crook to eat the offered lunch and wine. Rogues !!!

 

Hats off to Garry/Jo for intervening re the exorbitant charge for a bowl of plain spaget for the sick lady.

Thanks Stu,

Yes a fascinating place to visit, we did the Golden circle and it takes in some of the main landmarks/ tourist sites. We didn't go to the Blue Lagoon though as time was tight and we wanted time in the capital as well.
