@@paulthompson1953 hi Paul. I have Part 9 ready but I don’t want to post until we’re living and sleeping on the ship. We’re getting close now, waiting for The Bahamas Authority to approve us then Villa Vie can get P&I insurance then we can sleep on the ship. After that will be sea trails with further testing and certifications - we’re hoping for next week.
@@rebeccahowell6538 Nope, we visit the ship everyday. We can organize our cabins, play Pickleball, eat and drink BUT we cannot sleep overnight until all the MCA tasks and tests are done. So I’m waiting to post my next video when I’m officially living…and sleeping in the ship.
@@rebeccahowell6538 I really like the ship, its size and layout. The food is quite good and the crew is wonderfully friendly and helpful. This extra time has allowed me to receive Amazon orders to customize my cabin for storage.
Any update on your sailing or explanation of the further delays? Have much enjoyed your travel updates. It sounds a wonderful trip in prospect.

@@believesailing 'Fingers crossed' that all goes to plan so that your fabulous experience can begin.
Hopefully you are not homeless for much longer. Have they given you any update on the Odyssey? July 20, is coming up quickly.
@@allent1034 hi there, yes we have a new embarkation date of July 25th, with a sail date between July 27-30.
@@believesailing That is great. I hope it works out for you. I'm sure they are trying hard.
@@allent1034 Oh yes, they're definitely doing the best they can.
Did you abandon ship?
