Ciao from Bella Firenze...

 

 

We have such a good time and no time to write the German texts for the blog either, so enjoy the pictures for Day 3 to 5 on NORWEGIAN GEM:

Some impressions from our Meet & Greet now in English:

 

Reminds me very much to the great one on NORWEGIAN DREAM.

 

I hope it will become as great on CELEBRITY EQUINOX.

I am now in rainy Geneva and wait for my connecting flight to Frankfurt.

 

The crew was outstanding.

 

The weather was made for traveling angels.

 

Subject we do not find a parent's cruise for Asia in Q1 it's decided:

 

12 nights on NORWEGIAN JADE in January 2011.

 

We want to be back with our NCL-friends.

 

Day 2.2 from the current cruise is now available in English:

From Civitavecchia to Livorno... not by ship... but by car...

 

to see San Gimignano:

 

 

Florence...

 

 

... and Pisa...

 

 

A nice alternative for those cruisers who know Rome and are willing to drive yourself to enjoy Tuscany like Frances May's "Under the Tuscan Sun"...

 

 

So enjoy our not-typical shore excursion from Civitavecchia to Livorno...

 

Days 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 6.1 and 6.2 are available in English now:
