Is sea sickness generalized? Meaning I had never got sick sick then boom out of no where I did..

Are the wristbands with the plastic white bead still the best preventative?

The cruise has been great. There have been a few disappointments but overall it is difficult to complain about an ATW trip. Thank you for following our journey.

I have been on many cruises and also have been fishing a number of times and never have been seasick. One of the people we met on the cruise had never been seasick either his entire life and about a month ago started getting seasick. Someone had the wristbands and he started wearing those and has been doing much better.

He developed a dental abscess and I wonder if f this is creating his seasick issues.

Spent today in Maputo, Mozambique. Again, surprised by a port as we were expecting something much different. Sadly, the rain caused us to miss things and return back to the ship earlier than we wanted.

With those sea days starting out, I’d be on a first name basis with all of the blackjack dealers within days.

Then they’d probably never see me again after the first few weeks because I either ran out of spendable money or was forcibly stopped!

Sadly, no craps table on the ship, but then again, I might be broke by now. There are two blackjack tables running at $25 a hand so the tables are usually empty.

Here are the first three days of our overland excursion to Chobe Game Lodge and Victoria Falls. I am having to post the videos blind because of the poor Wi-Fi on the ship. Let me know if these are not loading for you. Thank you!!!

everything is working

I am retiring in about eleven years and you seriously have me thinking about a cruise like this. I just don't if I could go this long though. Myself and the wife love our animals too much. I am enjoying your write ups and updates on here though.
