Sapphire Princess Day 18

Sapphire Princess Day 18

by Safarigal | Mar 22, 2024 | Incas, penguins, llamas, and even an eclipse

At Sea March 21st, 2024 Packing again! This time just for a 2 day trip. However we are going to experience different kinds of weather – hot and in the 80s, cold and in the 50s, rainy, windy, you name it. At least there won’t be any snow. It was certainly nice and warm...

At Sea March 20th, 2024 The ocean is totally calm and there is no motion on board Sapphire Princess. Quite a difference from a few days ago. Personally I prefer rougher weather, but I am really happy with any weather just as long as I am at sea. Although Skywalkers is...

Coquimbo, Chile March 19th, 2024 Back to back ports again, and our last port in Chile. When I went to download the photos Brian had taken today with his camera, I discovered that there were no photos from today on the disk. I had seen him take a multitude of photos...

San Antonio, Chile March 18th, 2024 Today is end of the first segment of this cruise. About half of the passengers are disembarking but they will soon all be replaced, and then some. The ship will be sailing at capacity. Disembarkation seemed to be very organized, no...

At Sea March 17th, 2024 We woke up to the Pacific Ocean looking totally calm. It is hard to imagine the storms we had been experiencing a few days ago. The ship is decorated for St Patrick’s day. I mean really decorated, and there are may passengers wearing green. We...

Miami December 22nd, 2023 We had to be out of our suite by 8:00, so it was an early start. We said farewell to Patsy the poinsettia and hoped that the new occupants of the suite would take good care of her. I had thought about leaving them a note about putting her in...

Ocean Cay, Bahamas December 21st, 2023 Would we or would we not actually be able to set foot on Ocean Cay? Ocean Cay is a private island in the Bahamas, owned by Explora Journey’s parent company, MSC Cruises. The MSC large ships get to stop there, but so far the...

At Sea December 20th, 2023 Our last sea day. It was still raining, and had been very rough overnight. This is the strangest Caribbean cruise we have ever done! I’m not sure this ship has the best stabilizers, there’s an awful lot of rocking and rolling going on. Our...

Samana, Dominican Republic December 19th, 2023 Today is the day. Today we will host the shore excursion for our group. I love doing this, but it is always anxiety provoking. What if more people show up than we have booked? What if we can’t find our bus and our guide?...

Spanish Town, Virgin Gorda December 17th, 2023 Today was our day for going to the Baths. This is a wonderful area for swimming, snorkeling and sunbathing on Virgin Gorda. It is time to be back on a white sand beach again. Well, it didn’t happen. Strangely enough my...

San Juan December 17th, 2023 It was hot and humid and raining. We decided not to venture ashore. The Castillo San Felipe del Morro in Old San Juan was beckoning in the distance, but the dark clouds, heavy with moisture, were sure to drench us as soon as we walked down...
