Sapphire Princess Day 8

by Safarigal | Mar 13, 2024 | Incas, penguins, llamas, and even an eclipse

Cruising Cape Horn March  11th 2024  The weather had deteriorated overnight, and the ship was pitching and rolling again. We had been looking forward to our scenic cruising around Cape Horn today. This is our third cruise to this part of the world, but on the previous...

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...

April 28th, 2023 Southampton to the US For the first time in a very long time we had breakfast in the dining room, and jolly good it was too. We usually have to go to the Kings Court and Carinthia for breakfast as the dining room is long closed by the time we venture...

April 27th, 2023 Southampton Today was another cold and rainy one. We decided to skip the Isle of White, and instead blow all of our OBC in the spa. Well I did anyway. It was OBC well spent. I had fallen in love with a scarf in the Liberty shop on board, but it was...

April 26th, 2023 Southampton The Daily Programme Port Highlights has a description of Southampton on the front page. This has been the same since Sunday.  I am thinking of offering to try to make it more interesting, reading exactly the same prose every day is boring....

April 23rd, 2023 Southampton Well we are still on board. It’s weird, it’s almost like nothing happened. We had drinks with our friends who had been on the Queen Victoria world Voyage, and it was fun hearing about all of the excitement on their voyage, and we filled...
