Day 1 of Eastern Caribbean Cruise. Weather and sea good. A few negatives. Self serve coffee machine on pool deck broke on last cruise and not repaired in FLL. I assume we go without for another 10 days. Shuffleboard court not replaced after parts blew overboard last November. La Veranda Champagne and caviar breafast advertised in "Passages" as opening at 7 AM. I was there at 06:55 and told they would not open until 07:30. "Mistakes happen" I was told. I still love the Navigator and its crew but am getting annoyed at these little "niggles"!
( Since my earlier post I have "found" the shuffleboard court. It is hidden below the lifeboats on starboard boat deck. A little confined but we don't have the worry that an errant puck will hit a prone basking reclining passenger!)

David, I was hoping you would post while gone! I would really miss the self service coffee machine!

Day 1 in Princess Cays, my least favourite "port"! At least we only stayed there for a beach barbeque. Ship is full, in fact it was "oversold" and some passegers accepted a financially rewarding "bump"
Dinner last night with Capt John lasted a long time and was only stopped by the arrival of Showtime. Food good as normal. Today a day at sea. Seas a little "pitchy". Lorraine is CD with Cody as ACD. Englebert is Cruise Consultant. Katja , Destinations manager. Elvis is in the building. Lot of staff I don't know, probably from Oceana.

David, you are doing some good ports to stalk. You are also stopping at my two favorite Carib ports, Tortola and Virgin Gorda.

Thanks for the staff & crew update, David. I am so proud of Cody and his new position as ACD. I told him in 08 he would make a great CD. He's on his way!!! I'd say, "Give him a kiss from me," but you know..... Say HI instead and to Katja, too. Elvis is the best.

Virgin Gorda cancelled due to excessive swells.
