    Wow, what a trip that was! Congratulations on the Grand, and oh boy, the tender situation sounds beyond frightening. WTG, Clarence! Glad it all ended well.

    That’s a way to wrap up a trip. I would have been terrified on the tender. Congrats on the grand!

    We got on a tender and I was nervous because the swells were like 8 feet. Our tender attempted letting people off, but only got about 5 people off and we broke away. This would go on for another hour and a half! The captain would reposition the ship to try and block the waves and we would try again and get a few more off and break away. Women and children were crying, throwing up and having panic attacks. One woman started convulsing!

    We found out later they were preparing for us to go back to the island and sleep there if the last attempt didn’t work. What a nightmare. I have video of the whole thing but I don’t know hot to post it here. Luckily we made it safely as well as the last few tenders after us. The captain apologized on the speaker once everyone was aboard safely and everyone was talking about it the rest of the night. We bonded with Clarence, the infamous Chocolate Cowboy who was on our tender. He was a hero! While other workers were rushing to get off at each attempt, he was helping those that needed it and was the last one off.

    wow that sounds so scary I am sure some will be scarred for life to do another tender experience.

    I haven't ever had to do one before I can't imagine the mobility some of the people tbat were on our ship woulda been able to get themselves off the boat


    glad you guys had a great safe trip and now the long journey home too I am sure
    we hear some other people who had a redeye back to Sacramento yesterday when we were leaving around Atlanta 6pm they weren't getting home too early either.

    thanks for the report I think we might try for a Norwegian in Alaska this summer

    This was such a fun TR to go through. Great way to start and finish even better! Food, entertainment, spa all look wonderful. I am not cruise savvy to have to look up tenders. lol Thanks for sharing this.
