Amazon Prime Delays in Canada – Why is Shipping Taking So Long?
Are you experiencing delays with your Amazon Prime orders in Canada? You're not alone! Many Prime members like myself are noticing slower shipping times, with promised two-day delivery turning into much longer waits.
I reached out to customer service but they did not have an answer.
Is this slow Amazon Prime delivery in other areas or just Windsor and Essex County?
Waiting one week for Prime delivery is unacceptable.

Point Pelee Looks So `Different in the Fall. October 2024 @Shorts
มุมมอง 169 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Point Pelee National Park is a Canadian national park in Essex County in southwestern Ontario, Canada where the southern most tip extends into Lake Erie making this the most southern point of mainland Canada. Every visit to the point it never looks the same. On this visit, strong winds created large Lake Erie waves washing away a large portion of the tip. @PackingOurSuitcases

    I’m so glad to see your video! Royal Caribbean has taken off the excursion reviews so passengers can no longer read the reviews & decide if they want to do the ship’s ridiculously expensive tours. I’m afraid to think of what this port will look like 5 yrs from now after the cruise ships take over with their jewelry stores & expensive restaurants. I wanted to do the 4 wheel drive safari but Odyssey of the Seas wants $139 USD pp. I looked online & the same 3 hr tour is $45… RCCL is gouging their passengers & it needs to stop. I’m so glad u enjoyed your tour bc it looks like a lovely place. I’ll be there in May 2025, but not on a ship’s shore excursion!

Best to be prepapred for everything from hot and sunny to cool and rainy. Pools and hot tubs were open most days. A couple days they were closed and emptied during the rough sea days. In fact, the doors to any outside deck were closed too. We will actually be sailing from Florida to Lisbon on October 25th. A rare east bound transatlantic. Bon Voyage!

      @@harveyfreedman7146 Very nice. I believe that this transatlantic is sold out. Some nice ports you will visit. We liked Malaga (went to Rhonda with a small group) and Ponta Delgada was a beautiful island. Here is a video of our port stop in the Azores. th-cam.com/video/Rw7BMFd5YZw/w-d-xo.html

      This was last fall, November 2023. We are sailing on a couple transatlantics again this fall. One east to west from the USA to Lisbon and then returning from Barcelona to the USA shortly after. It will be interesting to see how east to west transatlantic cruises are.

      Both Windsor and Detroit have done a lot of work along the riverfront. The park lands and public walkways on both sides are a great improvement.

    The normal drone videos you see on TH-cam really do no justice for the Gordie Howe International Bridge. It's absolutely huge from the perspective of a boat. It's an amazing feat of engineering. Also, pretty neat to be sailing near those freighters. Always loved watching them sail by on the St. Clair river in Port Huron. Thanks for the upload. Was a fun video.
