Since we're reminiscing a bit, here are a few from our 2010 Nordic Navigation Cruise which celebrated Crystal's 20th Anniversary. from Mexico City

Yes, great memories! We, too, were on Symphony for the 20th Anniversary celebration 😍

Four year ago we were in Rhodes. Our previous time was many years earlier; I believe 2008.  We love walking the walled city, particularly early before it becomes crowded with tourists and then shortly after the stores and other venues open.

This thread has turned into a tribute band: not very good, but keeps the olds happy.

Some of them….

 

I guess it’s the nature of these sort of “off topic” threads - full of stuff that some find interesting or amusing - occasionally 

[Keith1010]

As someone often says, if you don't care for what has been posted don't read it.

 

The nice thing about this thread is it is not topic specific.

From nine years ago from a two day stop in Sorrento. First day drive off the Amalfi Coast.  Second day, pizza.  and walking around.  

 

 

As is the case in Italy lots of great looking fruit and vegetables.  But tis vendor didn't make it easy to select what you want on your own.  Too bad the most important sign was in English. Otherwise, we could play dumb. Then again even in English some American tourists could play dumb.  Why? I'll use t each person answer that for themselves.  🤫 🤫🤣🤣

Keith, did you eat that whole pizza?

 

Today's sunrise is from my 2017 Crystal Symphony cruise from San Diego to New York.  May 2 was a sea day from San Diego to Puerto Vallarta:

Pretty soon, the rest of us are going to abandon ship and leave these threads to the naysayers.

More like when the grand parents get the 35mm slides out to regale you with every photo and detail of their travels - for the 57th time….

So I shouldn't get my 35mm travel slides out - eh?  I did try to digitalize them but...

[Keith1010]

What I liked about this thread is the variety of things posted. For those who don't like it simply don't read it. And some who have opinions just post something new yourself.  

[Keith1010]

This is Crystal Serenity and not a new Disney ship unless you all know something I don't.

I have found that putting certain posters on my "ignore" list lowers my blood pressure dramatically.

Today's photo is from my 2019 Nieuw Statendam transatlantic and is a sunset rather than a sunrise.  On May 3 Nieuw Statendam visited Cherbourg.

AHHH! Thank you for this. I absolutely adore the Amalfi Coast, and it's been way too long since I've been there. I appreciate this small taste - brings back incredible memories. 

 

Hmmm. Methinks I'm gonna have to find a cruise that hits the Amalfi Coast sometime in the future.

We sailed her on our very first Crystal cruise.
