    Day 3: Amazing Entertainment

    25 de diciembre de 2023, Mexico ⋅ 🌙 59 °F

    Finally getting caught up on reviewing some of the pictures taken with my Sony RX10 - Here are some pictures from the Christmas Show.

    We are getting to know some of the wonderful performers has been great. Heather (the woman in silver) is a trained vocalist … Listening to her sing was worth the price of this cruise. There wasn’t a dry eye in the theater.

    Our cruise director, read us a “Slightly Altered” version of the “Night Before Christmas” with a cruise bent twist (cute and funny).

    Each performance continues to be a joy. It is also great to chat with them in the hallways and get to know them better.

    Enjoy these pictures of the Neptune Entertainment team.

    Day 3: Kissed wife 100’ below sea level

    25 de diciembre de 2023, Mexico ⋅ ☁️ 82 °F

    Today Donna and I took a submarine ride 105 feet below sea level in Cozumel, Mexico. We saw many fish species. Please don’t test on me them. Saw a sunken ship. Got to 105 feet below sea level. The captain suggested to give your partner a once in a lifetime kiss under the sea.

    As the sub started its descent the theme to Jaws filled the cabin air. Yellow Submarine and Octopus’s Garden by the Beatles was appropriately played during the journey. A memorable time. The crew was great.

    Day 2: Good Morning

    24 de diciembre de 2023, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ 🌬 75 °F

    This view is the Explorer’s Lounge, I think waking up at 4:00 AM to journal and reflect over a latte will be pretty easy to take. This is on Deck’s 7 and 8 about 50 feet from our room on deck 8. After the crazy 2 days we have had (I was up non-stop for 44 hours no sleep at all) got a little over 4 hours sleep.

    I am feeling great this morning. CPAP machine is found, Our Ring camera system is working, saw that our local police drove through our property at 1:30AM doing a home safety check which they said they would be happy to do while we are away.

    Now all I have to worry about is absolutely nothing. Have already met several very nice people from all over the world. I love the diversity with Neptune community the staff are amazing.

    To our fellow travelers please say “Hi” if you seeing use walking around, we would love to meet you. Paul & Donna.

    Day 2: Safety - EWindsor Police Dept

    24 de diciembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☁️ 73 °F

    One of the biggest fears we had when heading out on this big adventure was the safety of our home while we are gone - I have wonderful friends and neighbors - Ring Cameras and other security - But, what is totally amazing is our town’s local Police Department is wiling to do home safety checks - I gave them a Word document with all our contact information, and our friends and family numbers to call if needed - let them know to drive on to the property head towards the barn go around the shed and take a look see -

    When I woke up this morning and saw on this video taken on my Ring camera at 1:30 AM - We are breathing a huge sigh of relief knowing people are looking out for us - there are benefits from living in a small town with a great police department.

    Day 1: Safety first!

    23 de diciembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ 🌬 75 °F

    Everyone is required to take the safety course. I hope we don’t need to use our training. Here is Lois one of the Neptune entertainment staff showing us how to put on our life preserver if we ever need it. Thoughts of the Titanic are running through our minds at this point. #myvikingjourney #vikingneptuneLeer más

    Day 1: Aussie wearing an Akubra hat

    23 de diciembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ⛅ 75 °F

    I am embarrassed I forgot this gentleman’s name. We meet briefly while waiting for the bus to take us to the ship. His hat and original Akubra is stunning made of rabbits fur. This fine gentleman let me take his portrait for which I say thank you. The Akubra is the finest hat a gent can wear.

    It’s day 99 of our cruise I am going over old posts. I will never forget Brian and Sue from Australia. We were very sad to see them leave mid-trip. But our lives are better for knowing them both.

    I screwed up

    22 de diciembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☁️ 43 °F

    Good news I am on a flight to Ft. Lauderdale and our luggage is on the flight. Bad news I lost my CPAP breathing machine in the Alanta airport. I am a horrible snorer. Donna is mad. I don’t blame her at all. So I have to figure this out. Wish me luck.Leer más

Lauderdale from Atlanta - we also have an option to get a flight to Miami where our friend Roselie and Steve can drive us to Ft Lauderdale from Miami- So, 50% of use are error - But, life is good Chewbie is our new friend - airport therapy dog is keeping me smiling - Chewbie’s owner is also on standby for Detroit MI - So, we are taking this all in stride - Our great adventure is starting out on a fun (will make a great story later) foot.

    Trip Temperatures

    11 de diciembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☁️ 39 °F

    One of the questions we have been asked a lot is what will the temperatures be during our cruise? One of the women on our cruise FB group put together the attached graph from last year's temps high/low. For the most part while our friends in New England will be shoveling snow ... we will be in our bathing suits by the pool with a fancy drink with an umbrella in it. When we get towards Europe in April & May the temps will be cooler. We brought long-sleeved fleeces and rain jackets for those times it might get nippy on ship. Thought some of you might enjoy the graph. Please do feel free to write comments as we travel - it will help us keep in touch with you.Leer más

    UPS - Luggage Forward - This is real!

    8 de diciembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☁️ 43 °F

    After two years of planning - UPS picked up our suitcases today to send them to the ship. We have Apple Air Tags so we can track where they are. Hard to believe in two weeks we will be on our way. This is a trip of a lifetime. Instead of an expense I have come to a place where I really see this as an investment in our lives. We are going to see and experience more stuff in the next five months than we would sitting in a recliner watching TV. This is an investment which will shape the rest of our lives. We are ready to go. Air Tags reported our luggage made it to Ft. Lauderdale today 12/15/2023. #myvikingjourney #vikingneptuneLeer más

    It’s getting real

    27 de noviembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☁️ 45 °F

    Our personalized luggage tags arrived. We have to get packing so the luggage forwarding can pick up our baggage. Hard to believe it’s three weeks away. (Note: The way this blogging application works is that a "footprint" is created by location. We then add photos' with short blog stories to it. You will need to click on the photos to see the details. Also, sort by descending date seems to give a good timeline).
