Sapphire Princess Day 13

Sapphire Princess Day 13

by Safarigal | Mar 17, 2024 | Incas, penguins, llamas, and even an eclipse

At Sea March 16th, 2024 We should be in Puerto Montt looking at volcanoes today, but instead we are sailing on a relatively smooth Pacific Ocean heading north to San Antonio, Chile. My eye is definitely on the mend thank goodness. No need to check out the medical...

Chilean Fjords March 15th, 2024 We spent a blissful day sailing through the Chilean Fjords. Even with our obstructed view cabin we could see the a bit of the mountains outside. Unfortunately the cloud cover was low and we didn’t get to see the Andes in the distance,...

Sapphire Princess Day 11

Still in Punta Arenas, Chile March 14th, 2024 Well despite the captain saying we would leave Punta Arenas at 7:00 we were still at anchor when I woke up and peered out of the window. At 9:00 the captain announced that the weather was still bad and continued to delay...

Sapphire Princess Day 10

Punta Arenas, Chile March 13th, 2024 Much to my dismay, my eye is still not back to normal. It is healing, and I don’t think a visit to the medical center is necessary, but it is still very frustrating. I hate it when there are distractions when I am on holiday. We...

Sapphire Princess Day 9

Ushuaia, Argentina March 12th. 2024 My hair remains the same, but my eye seems to be on the mend. I am soaking my eye, and resisting taking my nail scissors to my hair to even it up, mindful that I will make things worse. We woke up to the beauty of Ushuaia. It is...

Still at Sea December 16th, 2023 We had a time change overnight, so by the time we were up and ready for the day we had missed breakfast. We went to the Crema Café for coffee and pastries. Well, Brian had yogurt like a good fellow. The café was packed and we were...

At Sea December 15th, 2023 It was quite a rough night, but not so bad that the poinsettia we were given on embarkation got thrown around the room. We had a bromeliad as a gift on the Queen Victoria in 2017 (Brunhilda) and it had to spend many a night in our garbage...

At Sea December 14th We got up early as I was still trying to get things organized for my group, and had failed thus far. Then came the “this is your captain speaking” announcement. These are never good. I always fantasize that it may mean we have all been invited to...

Miami December 13th, 2023 Today is the day! We are due to board at 12:30, and I was so excited. I looked out the window of our hotel room, and there she was, hiding behind a Regence Seven Seas ship. We will be on her in a few hours. I had planned to spend the morning...

Despite the promise of diverse itineraries, ours really isn’t that different to the usual Caribbean itinerary. The good news is we get to see a new country – the Dominican Republic. We were planning to go there on our Virgin Voyages cruise last year, but missed it due...

Until about 2 months ago I had not really thought about the new cruise line, Explora Journeys. Yes, I had been inundated with their marketing materials, but I must admit that I get sooooo many marketing emails on a daily basis, all of their promotional material went...
