Boarding Viking Jupiter

We arranged a ride to the port last night. We decided to leave the hotel at noon.

I didn't set an alarm because I could not fathom sleeping past 9 AM. I woke up at 11:20....and the chaos began!!!

Makeup quickly done as Bob was throwing things in suitcases. My heartbeat probably reached 190 beats per minute. I asked Bob to call and get the time for the ride to port changed...he said we will make it. By now, I am sweating like a pig as I began throwing everything within reach into suitcases with absolutely zero rhythm or reason.

We made our way to the lobby to be greeted by Bill and Patty who were all relaxed and calmly reading. Bob and I looked like we had just been through a CAT 5 hurricane. But we were not late....we had blown into the lobby at 11:59!

We made our way to our cab and took the short ride to the port.

I couldn't find my luggage tags but after this morning, I was not going to sweat the small stuff. The Viking crew were able to make tags for our luggage.

We were through the embarkation quickly and had lunch. During lunch an announcement was made that our stateroom was ready.

We were now faced with the task of unpacking and organizing the mess we just made a short time ago.

Fortunately, we didn't seem to have forgotten anything at the hotel.

The unpacking process took a little longer than normal.

We met Bill and Patty in the atrium before going to the restaurant for dinner.

We are glad to be unpacked for the next few weeks.Baca selengkapnya
