Favourite location for sail away?

[WESTEAST]

We've been on many cruises with Oceania and always look forward to sail away and am curious to learn favourite ship locations on either R or O class of ships from my fellow cruisers?  We sometimes walk about the fitness track to watch the shore disappear into the distance or other times head to Horizons depending upon the weather and time of day.

A few of my favorites:

Sydney Harbour

Istanbul

NY - passing Statue of Liberty

[LHT28]

if weather is good  we go up on the  deck above the pool deck if not Horizons is good

Horizon's is great, except if you want good photo's, it is better to step outside, and not shoot thru windows, which are tinted, and often have reflection's and are not always clean outside.   If weather is good, I like to go onto top sport's deck when sailing into a new harbor.

Sometimes, I like to watch from the outside deck below the lifeboats, but then you have to scurry back and forth to the opposite side of the ship to see everything.

Other times, I like to watch from the rear, outside portion of the Terrace Cafe, especially if the ship is reversing...

Last month we were seated at the center aft table in Toscana on Marina during our sailaway from LaSpezia (heading straight out to sea for Corsica), a most unexpected glorious sailaway!

Me too, Jan!  Especially if we are far aft or forward ...

 

If we want a 180 degree view, we go up top.

We're in 9141 so I think I know where we'll be 🙂  (Actually we're planning on 'embarking' and then immediately leaving for feijoada and returning.  So I wouldn't be surprised if we sleep through "sail away."  LOL

Sail away we always enjoy sitting out on the outside portion of terrace cafe while drinking and having ordures/munchies. Most times there is plenty of room to either sit in the shade or the sun 🙂

I'm REALLY into food, cooking and eating it, and I still have to give thought to those three vowels together 🙂  Appetizers works also.

That sound divine!  Did you bring it on or order it?  I'm guessing bring it on.  Yum.

No we did not bring it on, Oceania had a "Russian sail away" in Horizons, It was not an included but well worth the money any way!
