CruisingOz

Australia is one big beach. We are very good at making sand castles. I am sure we could put together an extension on the sand igloo, maybe even a second level? LOL
I think the solution is we use our sand building skills for construction and build a commune for all the refugees. Does anyone know how long it would take to row from Australia to the US. 
I guess we will have to live vicariously through you guys who are lucky enough to cruise sooner than us. Despite having zero local COVID cases in the whole country, our Government will not  allow the floating "petrie dishes" to enter the harbour; but that topic is for a different time, back to my family search.   

Hello RCB Community, we need your help.
After listening to Matt's podcast today we need to find a loving family who would love to adopt two wonderful people. We need to be adopted so we have a way of escaping fortress Australia and live in the wonderful USA, preferably Florida. We wouldn't take up too much room as most of the time will be spent on a cruise ship, starting with Adventure of the Seas, B2B2B2B2B. Willing to baby sit, garden and do dishes while at your beautiful home, happy to even simply pitch a tent in the backyard; whatever it takes so we can get ourselves onto a cruise ship. 
Matt, I recall from a past podcast when you had the water damage, you have an extra room, studio B, that will be fine. I am sure you and the family won't mind???
Please help some poor Aussie's to get back on a cruise ship ASAP.  

The condition of being adopted is putting up with my Australian accent every day.

I'm fairly certain the UK starting banning Americans once they heard your British accent.

@CruisingOz get in line! I called dibs already on getting adopted by either @twangsteror @WAAAYTOOO?
You can have @Matt. I would just get blamed for everything if I got adopted by him. ?

I'm fairly certain @Lovetocruise2002 is working on plans for a Canadian refugee camp in Florida.  Their first attempt at building a igloo made of sand didn't end well but she is stubborn so don't count her out yet.  If you don't mind sand igloos, they may have room.

The ad's are funny, thanks for the link. We don't eat a lot of fast food, but when we do, this is what life is all about. Must make sure I where a dark coloured t-shirt to hide all the stains and bring extra wipes, LOL. Perfect food after a few beers, can't wait until it opens. 
 

A new full transit has appeared.
Radiance April 10, 2022, westbound.

Hello Community,
Sailing through the locks of the Panama Canal is high on our bucket list. Looking through various sites we see that Royal has sailing which sail close on the Alantic side but only saw one actual transit cruise through to the Pacific which was cancelled; was supposed to sail in February. I see other lines like Princess and Holland have some but we would like to stay loyal to Royal.
Does anyone know when they might be scheduled to release a transit sailing? Perhaps I am searching incorrectly, so is there certain destination or departure ports I should be searching by? 
Also if anyone has done a transit sailing, would love any hints or tips.     

Hello Guys,
We had, like all of you, a cruise cancelled; 10 night Japan on the Quantum 15th April, and we were planning to travel with our adult children. My son and daughter will not be able to cruise again due to University and work commitments until sometime in 2023. This would have been our last get together for a while. so a bit sad. I thought I would reach out to C&A and cheekiy ask if they could issue my wife and I an FCC with 125% and refund or move the FCC for our adults kids to us. There was no lift & shift option, which was a bit upsetting as we had an incredible price on a Grand Loft Suite. Don't ask what was worse, missing on catching up with the kids or losing out on the deal of the cab turn for the GLS
Anyway, sent the email explaining the reasons and alike and to our great surprise, Royal had kindly put the kids credit into our names, all with the 125%. It was a nice added bonus, totally unexpected and it was great Royal was more flexible considering the circumstances. 
I guess it shows if doesn't hurt to ask, and this great customer service is why we are loyal to Royal. It is also good to see that in these exordinary times, Royal is open to working outside the normal. 
BTW, don't ask what was worse, missing out on catching up with the kids or losing out on the deal of the century for the GLS. LOL
