i had no drama with airports just that on Quantum we had a small engine fire and a lot of fire doors closed and crew running around.   but was over in 1 hour.

Hope you had a nice train trip.  

Oh dear hope everyone is ok.

Glad you are having great weather. Enjoy the rest of your vacay and keep the food pictures coming. I love Celebrity 

Weather continues to be amazing.  Beautiful sunset last night and a beautiful day to greet us.

Charlottown, Prince Edward Island 

 

What a view to greet us.    The bay is like a mirror.

Absolutely beautiful.

With your permission, I'd like to print & frame about a dozen of your sunset photos and hang them in my home office. Kay

Jim, echoing everyone else, your pictures really are stunning. You really manage to capture the essence of a place with your choice of subject and perspective…

 

You are continuing to be my morning coffee read…still following along…

[FRMPEI]

Welcome to Charlottetown... my home. Hope you enjoy your short stay with us today.  Weather is pretty nice +20C and sunny.

We began our tour with a 45 minute ride through the countryside to Brackley Beach and Prince Edward Island National Park.  
 

 

 

 

 

[Jim_Iain]

We continued on to Cabendish and visited Green Gables House and Heritage Park. Home of Lucy Maud Montgomery the author of Anne of Green Gable. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We took a walk through 

 

 

 

 

 

And iff course a visit to the gift shop

 

 

 

[Jim_Iain]

Our highlight of the excursion was a lunch in New Glasgow   

 

 

 

 

 

 

Any idea on what was for lunch?

[Jim_Iain]

Yup a Lobster Lunch 

 

 

 

[Jim_Iain]

The restaurant was attached to the New Glasgow Gardens.

You are killing me!  That lobster looks so good!  Very jealous!!

 

By the way, several pages back when I described arrival into Portland, I forgot you are coming down from the north……so you would see Portland Headlight (famous lighthouse) when you leave Portland that evening.  I think you depart at 8 pm?  Should still be light out, I hope!

I just managed to upgrade my SS to a RS on both my fall Summit cruises in order to avoid that damn tub.  Sorry for those who had to cancel, but I was grateful for the alert from my roll call buddy about availability.  Those tubs are an accident waiting to happen!

we are fans of the Royal suite- the additional half bath is wonderful!  As is the master bath.

Iain being British knows the Wiggles well.   We do have lots of bright TShirts. 

Wiggles will be back!  Saw ads on TV.

To my knowledge, there's no half bath in M-class Royal Suites.

[Cruise a holic]

We had a 1/2 bath on the Equinox and Reflection.  Both S class=  Thought same on M class.

Feel free.  I do love sunsets.   I think my favorite location for them is Hawaii, but have been rewarded with many on this cruise.  Even the crew have bee out shooting pictures

 

[Jim_Iain]

So sad to see the news of the Queen’s death.

It was incredible.  So sweet and tender.   I loved it so much I even sucked the meat out of the legs. 
 

I saved the claw meat til the very end.  My favorite part of a lobster.

The Royal on SClass has a 1/2 bath.  To my knowledge the MClass doesn’t 
 

 

the diagram of the MClass doesn’t show one

 

[vickykay]

Your excursion looks wonderful.  Who with?

[Jim_Iain]

We have departed PEI on schedule.

As we were boarding, Rich announced they were changing the show for tonight to the Main show originally scheduled for the Last Chic night. 
 

He said we would be getting rough seas - Just took a peek at Windy
