We were on the Voyager yesterday during its stop in San Diego enroute to San Francisco for the start of the 2011 World Cruise. It was great to see some of the staff and friends from our 2010 and 2007 WCs. No word yet on any itinerary changes in Australia...though I find it difficult to imagine that there won't be any.

However, there have already been some adjustments due to the cancellation of the visit to Myanmar. Don't have the specific details, but understand that Regent has added a couple additional stops in Sri Lanka and a visit to eastern India.

The Voyager looks in great shape. All of the furniture on the pool deck -- tables, chairs and loungers -- has once again been changed out (at least since last January's WC).

I heard that there are about 100 folks going all the way around to Southampton with another 140 or so going as far as Rome (which counts for WC perks).

Jamie, Dana and Elda were aboard and will be going all the way around...as was Michael Coghlin, who will be the GM for the WC.

I am hoping they do cancel some Australian ports and replace them with stops in New Guinea.

If there are 240 onboard as far as Rome, I am surprised that every category is available (Cat H guaranteed) for Sydney to Beijing.

So looking forward to being a "seggie" on Regent's last World Cruise. ;)

:bv: :bv: :bv: to all you seggies! Bon Voyage to Jan & Fred, plus other friends I met on the Discovery Collection who will board the Voyager today in San Francisco. Martha and Tom who were on GAME at Mateya and MOOSE, left Boston on Tuesday to avoid the blizzard. Thanks goodness!! Friends Ken & Shirley, non-LCTers, only need to cross the bridge to get to the Voyager today. Lucky for them. Hope you all have a wonderful cruise.
