We decided to book the circumnavigating Iceland cruise on the Cloud in August, 2019. Can’t do them all. We loved our trip to The Falklands, South Georgia and Antarctica in 2007 - despite the German battles in the boot room... I’m sure the experience on the Cloud will be fabulous and we will be following your experiences closely. Leslie

It is really going to be amazing, and George and the other guys are going to get into so much trouble. I can feel it already!

Early January is bad at the office, but I also found a great itinerary on Ponant Seychelles to Madagascar that visits the Comoros Islands in March. No single supplement either. I'm sure you will all have a wonderful time. Say hi to the Adelie penguins for me!

We are spending a night in Miami on the way down (annual visit to Regent completed so that worked out fine) and great miles. Coming back expensive but the nonstop and the other routes were the same points. So at least we got the nonstop home. YES we are happy to have our done as well. Those doing SIlversea air it wont open for a while yet. See pictures of our adventures here or follow me on Pinterest!

However, there is very nice wine country nearby. We have been there twice and did wine tours both times which were great.

However, so many new people who have no idea what it means so I contacted Marc who came up with POP2it and he suggest this name instead. Sure would not want Marc to lose his virtual teapot!! I think this is such a great name, seeing both Antarctica and Africa changes ones perspective. Nature is amazing. ADELIE - Antarctic Destination Enhances Life In Everyone So that is the new name and I will Karen to change it accordingly. See pictures of our adventures here or follow me on Pinterest!

We are going on the circumnavigating Iceland trip on August 5th. We are taking our boots, although it’s not clear if there will be any wet landings. Will report in, as I’m sure will Rachel. Especially interested in the boot room and status of boots to borrow. Leslie

So you really do need to rent or purchase boots when going to Antarctica or the Arctic. I loved that boot room so much more spacious and the racks are nicer too. Just well designed as well for traffic flow - one door in and one door out. See pictures of our adventures here or follow me on Pinterest!

It seems SO large after the Explorer and just 75 more people. It is probably 3 to 4 times bigger than the Explorer boot room. Also what is nice is the larger waiting area to board the zodiacs. Definitely benefits (including bathtubs) to the Cloud. However, I am still looking forward to being on the Silver Explorer, Dunedin to Dunedin. An area I have always wanted to explore. Had so many good trips on the Explorer it does have a place in my heart. See pictures of our adventures here or follow me on Pinterest!
