Welcome Home to all the Crown Princess cruisers!!

Hi Yonnie, yes we did. It was our second port and then we did an eastern/western cause of the hurricane

Sue .... You, Sheila, and Char are all going to laugh when see the pitiful job we did on covering Omar here on CLF ... but ... we tried! Everyone who normally does the Hurricane Thing was cruising and actually dealing with Omar ....

Welcome Home, EVERYONE!

Be sure to read your Live From thread ...

HA I bet the live from thread was pitiful,

we were wicked busy being bad

We hung out on the aft all the time and we had lots of visits from the crew and other passengers who joined in. We had a couple of tables put together out there in the morning and we were there most of the day and after dinner till late

Welcome back, Really Fine cruisers.
Pitiful about sums it up alright.

Sounds like you all had control of the entertainment at the aft.

Grand Turk Questions:

How is Margaritaville??

Is the trolley up and running?

How far from the cruise terminal is it to town?

Char · 10-21-2008, 11:13 AM

Hey Yonnie!

Not much to see in Grand Turk yet from what we heard other folks say. We just got off and walked around a little and tried to help the economy, but there wasn't much to buy. You still see lots of damage and blue tarps covering roofs as well as just framework left standing.

Here are a couple of not too good pictures from the deck of the ship. Bob forgot to change the focus to distance, so it's a little fuzzy.

Margaritaville is right there at the cruise terminal and was doing a booming business! I think it was the only place to go!

Thanks Char!!!

The walk is very short. Maybe 150 - 200 yards or so from the ship to the entry to the cruise terminal.
