Whoa. It sounds incredible. Don’t be stingy with the photos.

I wont.

Talk about an adventure I look forward to photos.

Sounds like a fantastic trip, Sam! Can’t wait to read all about it ️

[Denman John]

Sounds great ~ I’m already looking forward to the pictures and stories!

[ROman]

There should be lots of both, especially with the drinks package.

@ROman sounds like a hell of an adventure.
Not sure if you’ll be getting off the ship while at the Panama Canal, but there is a really cool museum near the canal that captures the flora and fauna of the area before the canal was built, the photography that was documented during the build, and tributes to the stories and atrocities the people who built the canal went through and the struggle they lived and died through. Rather brutal but really worth checking out.

@twistlock then let's ask somebody in the shipping business and do it

[Twistlock]

@endo wonder who that might be

I'm flying tomorrow to Seattle, boarding The Queen Elizabeth for this 22 day journey. I probably won't do posts along the way as the WiFi sucks and is iffy most of the time, but will do a photo dump on my return.

Bon Voyage, Sam!! ️

[Mizmazzle]

Have the best time!!

Have a great trip, Sam

This is one of our bucket list cruises as well. We’re looking forward to your report

This is way up the list on best things I have ever done. The trip was great, 22 days at sea, and the stops along the way. I'll share some stops in the order they occurred. Then transiting the canal. We went through the original section which was great. Started of in Seattle, unfortunately did not spend time there.

Next stop San Francisco

Had lunch here with relatives

Sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge.

Los Angeles next, being the crazy person I am we went to the Queen Mary, which I have been to before and loved.
