That's a Bucket List itinerary -
Skiing of the Seas - Still Another Not a Cruise Live Blog
coneyraven replied to Matt's topic in Live Blogs
You two will have a blast. The Wisp Ski Resort in Garrett Co, MD is about 45 minutes away for us. Although I haven't ski'd in a long time, at my age, I actually enjoy the "Bear Claw" which is a Snow Tubing Range better .... ain't nothing better than hitting "air" on the way down. Plus, with it being part of the Deep Creek Lake Recreational area - I never get bored -
Personally, I'm hoping the trend is for great success for Grandeur going out of Barbados .... I know, just by her shear age, her days are numbered, but I'm hoping to have another chance to go on her fall/winter 2022 (plus, I wonder where she'll be Summer of '22) --- that could be a factor.

The really creepy thing is that the winning Powerball ticket yesterday was at the store where I get mine from....BUT I WASN'T THE WINNER. That's where the "coney" in coneyraven comes from. The store was Coney Market in Lonaconing, MD

Tempting .... but not yet, although, I did book refundable for the Explorer cruise, so, you never know. will have to look at the itineraries first. If it's "my girl" sailing it in the Fall of '22, the odds are greater of a switch. Now, these sailings are THIS coming winter..... if, by chance, our cruise on Oasis gets canceled in September, we could always book Grandeur over the winter as a replacement.

Please add October 27, 2022 --- Explorer .... Nothing like Halloween on a Cruise Ship. ??????

I didn't think there were any International flights out of DCA .... Either way, dang, BWI is still my favorite. -

Interesting with Washington .... I'm assuming Dulles (IAD) . No International flights out of DCA and I would assume it would say Baltimore if it was BWI -
Grandeur Home Ported in Barbados

My wife and I are in our 50's ..... we don't need all the "bells and whistles" to enjoy ourselves. Plus, our kids are grown, so, the fewer kids the better. It's smaller, more intimate, just a slower pace, which is what we love. Just show us where the bar, the food, and pool are, and we're good. Even at night, we love going to the front of the ship and star gaze (We constantly watch it when the ISS goes over when we're at home in the central Appalachians.) -
Grandeur Home Ported in Barbados

Who knows ... things seem to be in a state of flux right now. For those of us that love Lady G, it's very comforting to know that there is a plan for her..... and there are some AWESOME new ports and itineraries to choose from. Assuming these become popular, hopefully she'll be sticking around for a while. -
Here's an updated photo --- Everything above Deck 7 is gone and everything from the VCL forward is gone. Looks like the only thing left would be the Casino (Deck 5 aft) and the Main Dining Rooms (Decks 3 & 4 aft) ..... There is no Deck 6 aft on Sovereign

Hehehehe ...... So far, my daily departed Lady G (very cozy & intimate, more like old style cruising) -- we don't need all the bells & whistles to enjoy ourselves.---- We would've like Brilliance more had there been fewer kids (totally our fault for booking a cruise over Easter) ---- the back patio of the Windjammer on Brilliance is insane. Loved Navigator (pre-amp'd) ---- it was like the Goldilock's of ships --- not too big, not too small

If there's one thing we've learned over the past year, without humor, we wouldn't be able to survive this crap
