If you are lucky enough to be cruising during the month, please list your cruise and the date and we will do our best to stalk you along your journey to get a glimpse of your ship. Please list your dates and ports.

we will be cruising down I95 and then over to Atlanta on our way to Destin for a beach week with son, daughter in law, 2 of the Grandkids and Franks sister and brother in law.

Does that count????? :banana: :p

JoAnn it absolutely does count! You know the beaches at Destin come from the granite of Stone Mountain area; That's why they are the best in the world IMHO.

You have to drive right past our exit unless you take a different road outside Atlanta....would love to see you (even for just a few minutes if you have time)! :)

Thanks Sue, I'm not sure exactly what route we are taking, I'm not even 100% we are going thru Atlanta, but will mention it to Frank. We are one way or another going to try and meet up with Chris and family and caravan, maybe Montgomery. But will let you know if we can work something.

First Oceania Cruise for us!

Mrs. Portolan (Judy) and I will be on the Voyager Baltic Sea cruise departing Copenhagen on July 18th. We're doing the cruise after taking in the Passion Play at Oberammergau since it is either this year or 2020!

I'll be on the July 10-21 Mariner cruise from Rome to Venice. Getting into Rome the morning of July 8 to ease into vacation mode before boarding the ship (first vacation longer than a 3-day weekend since 2006).

Let me give it one more try to see if anyone else will be on the Voyager from Copenhagen to Stockholm sailing on 18 July?

I am sailing on the Azamara Quest and curious to compare with Oceania as the ships are the same.

Susan, Hope you have a nice cruise and anxious to hear about the Azamara Club line.

Susan, I love it how you go off the "tried and true" and test out new ships/lines. Your experience is invaluable!

Are you spending any time in Istanbul precruise or Athens post-cruise? Have a fantastic time!

Have a great cruise Susan, will be anxious to hear your thoughts, as we have had Azamara on our list to try sometime.

I will definitely write a review upon return. I am not able to spend pre or post-cruise time but wish I could.

Ahh yes, Susan - I know your summers are always loaded and time is precious. Look forward to hearing about Azamara!

Yes I have two in summer school that I am carting en route to the office and also still taking my son to the surgeon twice a month about his fractured ankle. Hope that will be resolved soon for his sake.
