    We went across the pacific to Hawaii smaller ship and I've been on 9 cruises.. I was deathly sea sick so were other people. It's too small in my opinion needs more updating. One plug in the rooms and small tv.s ..I thought they were putting it in to dry dock? Our next trip was Barcelona and it was this ship again March 2025 ..We cancelled ..the food was not up to par either compared to the last 2 cruises we went on. We went Sept 23rd this year so this was same cruise I just realized we were 8th floor extended Balcony. ..LOL

      That’s interesting. We were on the same cruise and had completely different experiences. Very sorry to hear that you were so seasick, it just ruins the whole experience. Were you in the group of people that got off the ship in Honolulu? I do believe the more modern ships are more stable and of course river cruises are probably the most stable. We just finished a couple of river cruises in Europe and I don’t think anyone gets sick on river cruises. Unfortunately they are very pricey, so ocean cruises still offer the best bang for the buck. We can probably do three ocean cruises for the price of one river cruise. Thank you so much for the comment.

    At about the same time as you were boarding this ship, we were boarding the Emerald Liberté in France. At one point we were moored beside an Ama ship so had to cross it to get to shore. The Ama fleet look like beautiful vessels. I'll be taking an Avalon Cruise beginning in Budapest on November. On your Ama cruise, what was the majority nationality of the guests??

    • @randyweaver8354
      @randyweaver8354 3 місяці тому

      We had mainly Americans. We met a couple from Sweden, and also from Peru, Great Britain and Canada. Because we live in California we have to fly halfway around the world to cruise in Europe, so we did another AMA Cruise (AMA Certo) on the Moselle, Rhine to Basel after the Danube cruise. That's wonderful that you are going on Avalon. We did Avalon on the Danube right after Covid. also in November. I think 2022. I think because it was post covid and so hard to travel we only had 30 passengers on the ship. If I remember right they had eBikes that you could ride.

    Hi John, thanks for watching my videos. I hope you and or other people get something useful from these. It does take time to edit and upload. Kind of like volunteer work. I think UA-cam is a wonderful platform. Most of the videos I see on UA-cam are people trying to help other people (like how to fix a rug doctor carpet cleaner- my most popular video). On the subject of Europe, because of the European Union, going from country to country is more like going from state to state in the US. Having a single currency like the Euro helps even if you are using a credit card because you can do a quick calculation in your head on how much in dollars something costs.

Just an update, I used my machine tonight and all worked great. I used to have a leak when I parked it to move furniture, it doesn't leak anymore either. Pump works fine. I tested my pump before I reinstalled it. I put insulated alligator clips on the 120 volt motor leads which are on a small power cord I made up, I hooked up a hose and held it under the faucet and let cold water run by gravity into the pump. I turned on the pump with my extension cord and it worked great!

Since this seems to be how these things fail, I suspect you could fix any upright carpet cleaner using the same method.
