Just booked a new cruise: a seven night out of Miami on Regent Seven Seas Splendor on January 6, 2022. We'll see what happens . . .

Pandemic energy drain, I have forgotten how to post.

25 February 2022 Panama Canal Roundtrip SF Ruby Princess
25 July Roundtrip Vancouver - Alaska Crystal Serenity
28 October Barcelona - Lisbon - Civitavecchia Crystal Symphony
Hopeful that there will be no more cancellations.

Our July Alaska get away is a b2b. I am thinking about a pre cruise stay at the Pan Pacific for easy access for boarding. Upon our return to Vancouver, the Fairmont which (I think) is across the street from the cruise terminal might be a good place to unwind. ----Any suggestions for a post cruise stay?
Yes, the Panama Canal is a b2b SF-FL-SF: no flying! We will leave with a couple of friends, and on the return cruise, 4 more will come aboard and double our group.
Will be looking into a pre Barcelona stay and a post Rome stay. We have been to Barcelona several times and have made our own arrangements. A friend is to join us on this b2b: she may have other ideas as to where to stay. As age catches up with us, we are looking forward to more comfort and less schlepping of our own luggage. ---Concierge!

2018 was our last Alaska cruise - Vancouver to "Anchorage" on Seabourn. We stayed at Fairmont Waterfront for a few nights before our cruise and had a lovely time in Vancouver! [I can't remember why we chose Fairmont Waterfront over Pacific Rim but we had reasons ;-) Still had a great water view & easy walk across the street to board.....]

Princess' website hid that one from me on first glance. I see it now. I'm surprised to see them going in both directions in the spring.
For our trip next month, we're spending 5 nights at Le Méridien Barcelona.

We made final payment on our Regent Splendor cruise out of Miami that sails in January. I really hope this goes as planned. We are looking forward to it.
