Pat & I just returned from a 15 night cruise from Dublin to Reykjavik on the Voyager, visiting Faroe islands, 3 ports in Iceland and 4 in Greenland. It was an exciting trip even though high temperatures were only in the low 50s.
Felice was the captain and he had us, another couple, his wife and daughter for dinner the 2nd night out. He's been transferred to the Voyager and he said it is likely to be his ship for the next 2 years. It was fun reconnecting with him and meeting his family.
When we overnighted in Reykjavik, some shipyard men came on board and started making measurements for the dry dock overhaul. The Voyager lounge is going to get a complete overhaul & redesign according the the plans they had.

The dinner menus in Compass Rose have one selection each night from both Prime 7 and Signatures and we found them to be better there than in the specialty restaurants. The food in Prime 7 and Signatures isn't nearly as good as it used to be and many guests agreed with us that the food was better in Compass Rose. I hope that's just a problem with the Voyager and not with the whole fleet.

Jim, do you know how long Felice will be on the Voyager? We board August 2 - hope he's still on board! Really enjoyed all of your photos along the way!

He just got on the end of June so he should still be there.

Haha - No, JoAnn, no such luck! We're in a seven seas suite - midship on deck 7 so it's a great location!

Yes, Helen, the Baltics plus 3 days in St. Petersburg. I've never been there so am really excited to see a new part of the world - new to me anyway.

George and I were upgraded to a 7 seas suite on deck 7 on this same itinerary once. Very nice.
