Silver03,

 

Have a great trip! We are scheduled for Xpedition next March. We would be very interested in reading your review of the ship, the trip and the food. Also would like your impresions of Quito and your flight down to Equador.

I am so happy for you that you can go and have this rare pleasure! We are very much looking forward to your review. I hope you have a fantastic time!

[mcavanaugh]

Have a wonderful time and please check out for us the problem (cost?) of wet suit and flipper rental and add it to your review of the trip when you return. Anxiously waiting for it and wishing you only the most fantastic of experiences. Maxine (Scheduled for Sept.)

[kcsc]

I, too, am looking forward to your report. I am currently booked for April 2005.

 

I am most curious about Day 4 of the cruise at Bartolome in which there are no excursions scheduled for that morning. What did you do that morning? Did you go to Santa Cruz Island twice as stated on the itinerary? Did you feel this was redundant?

 

How was the snorkeling? I was told by my travel agent snorkelilng equipment is provided including wet suits. Is this true?

 

I'm anxiouosly awaiting your report. Thanks in advance for sharing your experience with us!

[LoriCruises]

We just returned...in response to a few questions before our review comes out, this is an all inclusive trip-no charges for wetsuits (delivery to be this week) or any other related stuff. On Bartolome, (as all days) you have 2-3 options. High, Mid and low intensity. Here you will go to the Crater dome hike, zodiac rides looking at sea life, sea-lions etc. Snorkeling everyday is an option-I swam with sea lions (actually THEY played with me) almost every snorkel. AWESOME to say the least

Hey Lori!

 

Good to see you posting on Cruise Critic. This is my favorite board.

 

Where will you post your Xpedition review? Did you take your kids, too? It's good to know they have levels of activity, maybe we aren't too old after all! But then again, Alaska and Hawaii are calling our names again right now

 

Will watch for your review

[LoriCruises]

Hi Char! Actually this is Barry her lesser half We don't usually post but this was tooooo cool of a trip to not share some basic info. Kids stayed home-in fact,as this product unfolds I beleive you will see a 10 and older policy soon. I know my eight and maybe my ten would have been Gameboying waaay to much on this trip. It's intense!!! oh yes-because of the strict (and well deserved)policies about self promotion we won't be posting here probably because the review has our take on the product as we see it...sooo I can email you our site that will have the pics and review.

K?

[Guest]

Hey Barry

 

No need to email me. I am well aquainted with your site and lovely Lori! (she has a nice file on us ) I'll just check in from time to time. It sounds so interesting--if only we were 10 years younger! The Antartic is another one we would enjoy, but don't think we'll be seeing it either

 

Cruising is the only way to vacation

Well I'd like to see that site also Barry. Can you give me the site?

 

Going on CENTURY! Third X Cruise In Four Months!

 

 

 

[LoriCruises]

Certainly yes...I will be happy to email any who are reading this thread and that ask-I suppose that's ok for the board rules?? Is it? But I do need an email address as it is probably not proper to post it here. It will not be used against you in any way.

[gkm]

Hi Barry! I also can't wait to see your review! Please email me the site. My email address is below. Bob and I so enjoyed cruising with you and Lori in February (even though the weather was tacky). We just returned from our Century caribbean cruise and it was fabulous! Like Char, I also wish I were younger. I would love to do that cruise.

Hi Barry,

 

I echo all of Garry's comments. (I wish she was younger, too).

 

Someday, maybe we can take a mardi gras cruise that actually goes to New Orleans.

 

Bob

[gkm]

Well now Bob, look who's talking! Barry, we both hope we can sail with you and Lori again.
