Sapphire Princess Day 38

by Safarigal | Apr 11, 2024 | Incas, penguins, llamas, and even an eclipse

Huatulco, Mexico April 10th, 2024 When we woke up this morning, Brian said he could smell smoke. Hoping that the ship wasn’t on fire, I went out onto the balcony to see if I could see any evidence of the cause of the smoke. A pale pink haze hung over the hills outside...

At Sea April 9th, 2024 Well, after all of the excitement of yesterday, it was nice to have a typical relaxing sea day. I have clients who dislike sea days intensely, and I have to book cruises for them so that there is the minimum amount of time spent away from the...

Total Eclipse of the Sun April 8th, 2024 Well, today is the day. I have seen my Incas, penguins, and llamas. Today is Brian’s chance to see the eclipse. We chose this cruise as we thought it would give us the best chance of seeing the eclipse without any cloud cover....

Cabo San Lucas April 7th, 2024 We were due to arrive in Cabo again at 1:00PM but when I looked out our window at 8:00 AM it looked like we were almost there. Then the captain announced that there had been a medical emergency on board, so we would be arriving early,...

Sapphire Princess Day 34

At Sea April 6th, 2024 I finished unpacking and went to explore the ship in search of a lounge/bar with a convenient outlet so I could work and watch the world go by. Alas Club Fusion didn’t have any really well placed outlets, so I decided to try Skywalkers. We had...

Stanley, Falklands Islands March 10th, 2024 We had an extremely rough and bumpy night, and I did not think that things were looking good for the tenders ashore. 25 minutes trying to get to the dock in rough seas didn’t seem to be on the cards. But suddenly, the wind...

At Sea March 9th, 2024 I was still disappointed about the penguins, but hopefully we will see them tomorrow. We really haven’t found the perfect lounge to sit in during the day, but Skywalkers night club works out well. I love the décor. Even the carpet and ceiling...

Puerto Madryn, Argentina March 8th, 2024 Penguins today! We decided to take the ship’s tour to the Valdes peninsular. Not only would we get to see penguins, but there are also sea lions and elephant seals, so it had the promise of a good day of wild life viewing, my...

At Sea March 7th, 2024 Finally a sea day! The first order of business was to find the launderette, or laundromat as it is called on this ship. Luckily there is one on the same deck as our cabin, but it is right at the back of the ship. I trundled down there with my...

Montevideo, Uruguay March 6th, 2024 Uruguay today. A whole new country for us. Very exciting. We had booked a private tour, and as soon as the ship had docked and it was safe to go ashore, we headed down the gangway onto the pier. There is no cruise terminal, and it...

Buenos Aires March 5th, 2024 We woke up to see the MSC Lyrica outside our window. When we had looked outside during the evening, a container ship was being loaded. She must have slipped away quietly during the night and her bright white replacement had arrived. So now...
