NSWP Posted March 30 #6657 Share Posted March 30 (edited) News reports of the big sperm whale skull being stolen from Killer Whale Museum at Eden. Many cruisers go there on Eden Port stops. I hope ship security are checking pax for the said skull. Would not be a Princess Cruiser ! Edited March 30 by NSWP 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we did the Alaskan cruise in 2006, it was in May, ice around and few ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackduck59 Posted April 12 Author #6663 Share Posted April 12 I just looked at her itinerary and there is a 23 day gap from this one to the next cruise, I wonder if she is going to refit. We certainly have the facilities here to do it. I'll have a look in a few days and see if she's at the shipyard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our NCL ship was first in to a few Alaskan ports for that season. Sadly, had to turn back in Tracy Arm before seeing the glacier. Too many icebergs and too dangerous. Still so many wonderful memories, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MicCanberra Posted April 12 #6666 Share Posted April 12 We were on the last cruise of the year on Diamond Princess in 2012, late September. Beautiful weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were lucky. We met Europeans who Were returning their rented mobile home early and flying home. We were on a ferry so more comfortable with the weather. Pros all ports were having fabulous sales. Taxi Driver told me most people go home after the Season finishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would probably catch an early ferry on the 16th and overnight in Vancouver. It would be fun to meet in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octoberfest sausage, sauerkraut and hashbrowns. That mustard was a spur of the moment choice and it is quite good. I wish I could remember where I got it. I washed it down with the house beer, a very nice Canadian brew called Sleeman's Honey Brown. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to dinner, but will it be as good as Donegans? Shea was excellent on the grill.🥩 Edited May 2 by NSWP 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted May 2 #6675 Share Posted May 2 Happy birthday, Les.😘 My first thought after having a bone density scan some years ago was "now I know what a piece of paper feels like in a photocopier!" 🤣🤣🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
