To expand on customs. My prior Galveston cruises that huge customs area was loaded. All lines long. This time it was empty. 1 person in front of me.

I just lost the vista WiFi pulling out of the parking lot.

[Saint Greg]

We’re stopping to drop off people at the RCCL terminal. If I have a criticism of this parking lot, this is it. 

[Saint Greg]

That was a 2 min stop and we’re rolling again.

[Saint Greg]

10:30 made it to the car. Lot is as empty as it was last week 25 cars

 

 

[Saint Greg]

We are pulling out. I’ll be back next feb and I’ll book this lot again.

 Thanks again Greg. I think everybody agrees you truly are a saint. My wife and I are finishing packing and we are about to leave Houston for our 50 minute drive to the Vista. I hope we have as much fun as you did.

 

 Ultra cruise here we come. Wish us luck.

Thanks Greg! You and Sid are the best at the live reviews.

Great review!  I was able to relive my vacation on the Vista (December, 2017).  Matt is the best cruise director ever!  Thank you so much for sharing your experiences here and on the New Orleans board.  Can't explain how helpful you have been!

Totally agree. 

Another great live, SG!! Thanks so much!!

We leave at the end of March on the Vista on this same route---LOVED hearing your thoughts and experiences. And drink pics 🙂 Thanks so much!

Thank you for the great review.  I felt like I was right there with you and helped get me closer to when we leave on the Dream on 4/14.  I followed your Dream review and am going back to re read it to help the weeks pass.  We will be doing the same ports and have been to them numerous times. Will look to see if we can find something different to do.

Is Falstaff elevated?  We cruise during hurricane season ( just the best time for us) and don’t want to come back to a flooded car.

Now the post cruise depression kicks in. 😞 Onward until that next cruise.

I enjoyed following along and I’m sorry to see it end! When is your next cruise?

He said “Aug. 25 on the Glory”. He’s staying in the French Quarter the night before.

Exactly. Sheraton four points. Got a great deal for a Saturday night.

And like I was saying earlier in this review if you cruise the same week out of the same port you see a lot of the same people. A lot of the people who were on my August Dream cruise are on this August Glory Cruise.

Looking at the outside of the building it doesn’t look like it...but I’m pretty sure I had to drive down out of it this morning. I have an extremely low front end so I have to pay attention to that. Maybe the outside of building isn’t but the inside is?

Thanks for letting us know.  Your cruise family likes to know you are okay.

Now I gotta know, what do you drive? I also have a low front end and driving my car around NOLA causes me physical and emotional stress. Taking my wife’s Jeep in two weeks because she can’t stand that I drive 68mph on the interstate in a sports car...
