Rare jimbo5544 Posted July 21, 2017 Author #51 Share Posted July 21, 2017 As I think I mentioned earlier, one of the best balconies (in our estimation) in the fleet. Here are a couple of pics.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2xsin12mths Posted July 21, 2017 #55 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Following.......We were on Pride about 2 yrs ago and LOVED the ease of driving to Baltimore. It was the first ship we were on that had Alchemy. OMG! We loved it. Pride is a great class ship...we sailed her sister Miracle 3 x's and now that she is coming back to NYC sailing again Spring 2018. Next up is Vista this fall and I'm looking forward to it. We will def go back on Pride though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocean Dancer Posted July 21, 2017 #57 Share Posted July 21, 2017 We had a Vista Suite a few years ago and loved it. We sailed in January and Pride became an icebreaker coming back to port. It was awesome to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2xsin12mths Posted July 23, 2017 #69 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Sorry, I made it sound like miracle was coming back to NYC. Our first 2 Miracle cruises were out of NYC. Spring 2018 we are booked on Miracle out of Tampa not NYC. I get confused with the ships constantly changing ports. I'm just happy Miracle is coming back to the east coast.[emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jimbo5544 Posted July 24, 2017 Author #73 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Flat Stanley Last year before our Med cruise on the Vista, one of our grand daughters had a summer project of making a fairly common drawing that they did (Flat Stanley) and taking them with them on their summer vacations and coming back to school in the fall and saying what they did with Flat Stanley over the summer. She asked us to do the same thing and made a Flat Stanley for us to travel with and post onto FB so she could follow along, which we did. We did that and it caught on with our travel page on FB, so Flat Stanley travels with us when we travel now. Here is Flat Stanley relaxing in our room after we put our clothes away and before we headed back out to catch up with the group before muster and sail away, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jimbo5544 Posted July 24, 2017 Author #75 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Sorry about the side view..... We then went back out to find some of the group and get something to eat. We caught up with some of the people and before long it was time for Muster. We headed down to our Muster station, they scanned sign and sails and then it was back up to the Serenity fro sail away..... or I thought so. At around sail away time there was an announcement from the captain that there was some maintenance going on that would mean we would not be leave till around 8:30 that night. Uh oh, some of our group was concerned that leaving late would mean we would miss Grand Turk. We asked and were told that we could actually leave as late as midnight and still make Grand Turk on on time. Seeing we were in Serenity, I looked over the port aft side and sure enough there were two divers and a truck near the aft section of the ship. Later I saw what appeared to be a section of propeller (don't really know if it was) but after awhile they packed up and by 8 were on our way. Because we had late dining we missed both bridges, but I mad a mental note I would view them on the return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
