Good morning! We are in Roatan today. This is the final port day of the cruise. We have two sea days remaining. I prefer this type of itinerary where you have two sea days to relax at the end after the port days.

Good Morning! I don’t put my phone in airplane mode on the ship as they recommend. Because of that I occasionally I have to deal with my time being an hour off of ship time. This time of year in Cozumel is one of those times.

On my Panorama cruise in October my room steward was right there. He told me…

Good Morning! I stayed at the Fairfield Inn & Suites in Webster last night. I like staying in Webster because there are plenty of food and shopping options in the area, hotel prices are lower than Galveston, and it’s a short drive to the port on embarkation day. This…

Booking
I actually booked Vista four times during the cruise shutdown. All were canceled. I booked it then because I knew Vista would be one of the first ships to return to service and because it’s an easy drive for me to Galveston. That would allow me to avoid having…

I laid down last night and was not going to get back up. I slept 8 hours. When I woke up it was 5:30am. I showered, shaved, brushed my teeth and got dressed.
From the aft ship cam I could see a wake so it didn’t look like we had…
