Rob0519 Posted February 4, 2016 #655 Share Posted February 4, 2016 That Day 6 Sea Day was when I started to realize just how fast the week went by and how even faster the cruise would be over. You seem to have great weather unlike our trip last November. Our last day (Nassau) was a total rain out, but we made it to Atlantis anyway.

XCruiseMe17 Posted February 4, 2016 #660 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Ok, here's a photo from up on deck last night that had us all dying. My mom asked for a photo of the three guys: myself, my dad, and my brother in law. For some reason, it turned out looking like I was introducing a boyfriend to my dad, and my dad not quite approving. It still cracks me up each time I look at it. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app I've decided that I have a crush on you! You're hilarious! Best review I've ever read!

Yorkvillain Posted February 4, 2016 #662 Share Posted February 4, 2016 (edited) Ut oh. Could it be? Could all of this lack of sleep finally have caught up to Doug and he passed out? Nope, I'm gonna go with the wifi is down. Edited February 4, 2016 by Yorkvillain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4Suzyq Posted February 4, 2016 #672 Share Posted February 4, 2016 You sure are making great use of your drink and Internet packages! NCL should put you in charge of their marketing! Thanks for preparing me for my first NCL and solo trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDougOut Posted February 4, 2016 Author #673 Share Posted February 4, 2016 One more from the MDR galley - passenger comment cards about the food, posted daily for current cruise. I shrunk this one down in an attempt to hide names - but thought it was worthwhile to share. Some comments... Skirt steak - great flavor, really liked the sauce I am really disappointed in the menu selections. Entree was too salty. The shrimp was perfect. Steak Diane a bit too salty. Food was excellent! Service was amazing. Far exceeded expectations. Skirt steak - best steak I have ever had! And I am picky. Lamb - excellent taste and texture! I loved all of it. Steak Diane - a little over cooked when rare requested. Rack of lamb, shrimp - aaaaamazing!! Totally wow service. Excellent in all ways. Steak Diane - excellent overall.

ruthie0704 Posted February 4, 2016 #674 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Lightweight. Let's pick it up a bit... :p We are "Escaping" in September and have the UBP. My questions is .... is there a limit per day with the package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDougOut Posted February 4, 2016 Author #675 Share Posted February 4, 2016 That's it for the tour! Unable to see engine room or bridge. For $79, it's definitely worth doing once. I asked about crew drinking - anything over a blood alcohol level of 0.04% gets you off the ship.
