My View: Escape 'The Storm' with us! (Semi-Live)
APDMOM replied to APDMOM's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Disembarkation - Self-Assist: I don't know if this is normal for NCL, but there were MANY more people doing self-assist than in our recent experiences. It could also be due to the date, with everyone trying to get on the road early. This was predicted to be one of the two busiest days on the road due to holiday travel. We fell into a LONG line for self-assist at 7:38. We were through customs and at our car (parked at pier 10 garage) by 8:08, so it was very fast despite the long line. The longest wait was to get out of the parking garage at the port. At least 3 lanes merge into one, including cars merging from the parking area by Disney and Carnival. It was quite a bottleneck. It took about 30 minutes just to get out onto 528. A final view of the APP: 😞 -

Evening Entertainment: TIP: Whatever you do, don't miss this! Skip the raffle drawing in the shops (the prizes were cheap rings). Do not pass "GO", do not collect $200... Go straight to O'Sheehan's or the Atrium and get a front row seat for the Movie Sketch Comedy Game Show. It is the most hilarious show - even counting all of our 43 cruises. With the videos, I will try to show a bit of it, but "You had to be there". 🤣 In the show, Jack gives clues about 18 movies, then the entertainment team acts out the movies.

Yep, that is exactly how it went - no rush, no running, no sense of responsibility. 🙈 -

TIP: I recommend doing a Nassau tour at least one time. At first, we did not like Nassau that much. I know many people talk it down. However, I find I like it more and more, especially since I have done a tour and know how walkable the port is. I don't recommend walking alone, but with my bodyguard (DH) I felt perfectly safe and enjoyed the walk. Junkanoo beach is an easy walk from the ship. Just turn right outside the port and follow the sidewalk, go past Margaritaville, and you will soon see Junkanoo on the right. It is about 1 km from the port (less than a mile). -

Upon Closer View - somebody spray painted through "CASA BLANCA" Will this be our final view of Casa Blanca? Will it be replaced by the Royal Caribbean development? -

Wish I had my superzoom camera back in 2012… I could have had pics of the partygoers 😆 I know it comes up when you do a search for his name and Casa Blanca, but that is still the internet 🙈 -

Casa Blanca - From June 2012, when we saw a helicopter landing for a party, to today. (This is on the part of the island that Royal Caribbean wants to develop): -

On the Way back to the ship: We found that the items sold at the Port Marketplace are a bit expensive, but looked like good quality for the most part:
