[NLH Arizona]

Sorry, I have to add another.

 

11. The oatmeal cookies - yum!

[Sue Do'nym]

2 weeks til my first Alaska cruise!

Beautiful scenery

Rebellious Fish

UBP-seeing how it works

Visiting my favorite specialties with UDP

Relaxing knowing nothing "has to be done"

[bangzoom6877]

I have another too...

 

Drink tastings! Specifically martini tasting, martini flights, and margarita tastings! My mom said she's only drinking "flights" on this cruise lol!!! Good thing we don't have the UBP or else hers would be wasted since they're not part of it! ;)

 

I'm sure I will think of even more, and I will post as I do!

I also forgot about the Eggs Benedicts, hash browns, the bacon, Indian food and hand-scooped ice cream from the Buffet. The frosted cinnamon rolls, hamburgers, fries and salads from the Outdoor grill. Chicken tenders, buffalo wings and mozzarella sticks from O'Sheenan (the snacks of sobering champions;)). Chinese food from the Asian restaurant, Wasabi in general and garlic rice from Teppannaki. And finally the appetizers from from the MDR - I can make a meal out of those.:p

 

 

I have to say, I like the food choices of NCL -its vast and they will stuff you. :D

 

 

Edit: I can't believe I forgot the pretzel rolls and the choices for a custom-made cheese platter from the buffet - those are yummy with tea or wine. :)

The view of the endless ocean from my balcony, with the cell phone turned off, and my real world left back on dry land.

Since I do have the UBP, I think I will be creating my own drink tastings :p. But, they will be full-sized :eek:! I am also super-excited for lounging on our aft balcony, which I've read here on CC is 158 square feet...woohoo!

[JPV072900]

Can't wait! Alaska is calling!

[BritChickBN1]

I'm looking forward to my very first cruise to Bermuda!!! I have been saying I'm going to give Bermuda a try for at least the last 2 years, but just now getting around to it. We will be there in 24 days+ Woo Hoo.

 

I am also getting anxiety over all the recent discussions around the boards with all of the changes taking place with NCL. I don't find them positives and I think the communication with these changes have been pretty darn crappy. However, most of them do not really pertain to us and they are things we "normally" don't do. So, I will be anxious to find out how this all works on my upcoming cruise.

 

I'm also excited to be trying out the Dawn since I have never been on this ship yet (but have been on her sister ship the Star a few years ago). :)

 

 

This makes me excited because I know when I get back from the gem I'll have another mitsugirly review to read!

[AceDoc]

1. Time with the family

2. The traditional first lunch (usually at Taste)

3. Sitting on the balcony

4. Cheesy trivia games

5. Playing cards

6. First-time views of the Western Med

7. Eggs Benedict

8. The kids going to get wings at all hours of the day

9. Howl at The Moon

 

That's good for starters

 

Cheers

[LindaLa]

Yes, thank you so much for a positive topic! It's great reading everyone's comments.

 

I look forward to the sail out of NY harbor, going under the Verrazano Bridge looking like we won't make it and seeing the Statue of Liberty. I love to sit on the balcony at sunset in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The vastness of it always leaves me in awe. And of course the beautiful island of Bermuda. Can't wait!

On my last trip on the Breakaway, I managed to snap these photos from the back of the waterfront (I have about 200+ photos just from there alone :))

My very first cruise was on Celebrity Reflection in February. We are booked on the Breakaway to Bermuda in October. I am looking forward to EVERYTHING:D

 

1. Bermuda, first time for us all

2. Ropes course, zip-line, plank, slides (hope to do it all)

We enjoyed the Reflection. It was a beautiful ship with great service and good food. We suffered a little sea-sickness due to rough seas, but will be prepared this time. I fell in love with cruising but want to try a ship with more to do. The Breakaway looks like the perfect choice, and I really can't wait.

Snorkelling with my daughter after heavy exams....She loves the sea but has very bad eyesight, I have found prescription snorkelling goggles so it will be the first time she actually manages to see the fish!!

Oh, that's fantastic! I am excited FOR her! [emoji2] We had such a great snorkeling trip in Bermuda two summers ago...it was so beautiful, it almost looked fake. She's going to love seeing everything clearly!
