I am starting this blog now so we can all learn the details of using it quickly and easily. I learned a lot from the last blog experience, but if you have suggestions, please share them with me.
Here is the web link to the details at Princess about this cruise:
About the Pacific Princess:
Pacific PrincessAbout the itinerary:
ItineraryThis ship has a WEB CAM (Yeah!):
webcamThere even a way you can download it to your computer so you'll know where our ship is in real time.
TELEPHONE (and FAX): We will both be carrying our personal cell phones and supposedly they are geared for international sites. Ed's number is 818 554 5577; Bonnie's is 818 723 6767.
To call the ship: call 1-900-329-SHIP (1-900-329-7447) from the United States. (the cost for each call is $8.95 USD per minute). The 900 service can be used to call or fax the ship.* Please include passenger name and cabin number (as of this writing, I don't have this yet) to ensure quick delivery. Pacific Princess: phone: 331 050 410; FAX: 331 043 913.
OCEAN CODE: East Atlantic 871; Pacific 872; Indian 873; West Atlantic 874.
EMAIL: we do plan on picking up our email periodically. I'll let you know later 1) to delete us from your emails to our current email addresses; and 2) the new email addresses we will be establishing for this cruise.
Email access is very slow because we are using satellite. PLEASE DO NOT SEND US LARGE FILES. It takes a long time to download and is expensive. If you want to send us a photo or graphic, please change it to a small file (low resolution) such as one for a web page. We thank you in advance.
OUR PHOTOS: Because it is time consuming and expensive to upload photos, I will be posting on select photos to our Gallery. When we get home, we'll be happy to show you the 50,000 we've taken.
And finally, if you have a better "handle" for this blog than "undersail", please email it to us so we can consider it. I want something easy to remember and fun to use.
Thanks! The Travelling Fools
