It’s a requirement in our house even if you’re 100 percent sure it’s in there! Also do the double and triple check when you disembark! I once left my passport, cash, and all my jewelry in the safe on a Celebrity cruise. What a nightmare that was! I missed my flight home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 1, 2023 Author #28 Share Posted September 1, 2023 All checked in and having a snack at the club. A nice perk of having a husband that travels all the time. Also super impressed with Breeze airlines they were really patient helping us fix a TSA pre-check snafoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 1, 2023 Author #29 Share Posted September 1, 2023 @Host Caroline hello! Any chance you can change my title to the correct spelling? Also I’m not sure if I should add live to the title as well. I can’t seem to edit it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted September 1, 2023 #30 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Unfortunately you can only edit for about 20 min after posting. I once boarded Celebrity Summit in Bayonne for a repo cruise to San Juan. I couldn’t get into the safe. Neither could the people across the hall. Attendant came and opened them. He opened mine and started down the hall. I opened it an there was a big fat Wallet inside. I yelled down the hall for him to come back…he took out the wallet, did not want to paw through it, said he would come back with security. It was time for muster drill, so I had to leave. When I got back to the cabin it was gone. It needed to get ashore before the ship left because the ship wasn’t coming back there. Hope there was a phone number in it to call. This was in 2010, no smart phone for me back then. EM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 2, 2023 Author #35 Share Posted September 2, 2023 A little administrative detail, I’m not as much of an expert as a lot of you so please feel free to chime in to the review as much as you want! I would love correction if I’ve said the wrong thing, or spelled something wrong. 😉 As long as they aren’t divisive or cause drama I’m here for the tangents as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 3, 2023 Author #42 Share Posted September 3, 2023 We’re on the bus from Portland, Maine to NYC! Concord gives you a snack box and bottles of water as you board and they have a Keurig in the back. I brought melatonin and plan on snoozing away after yesterdays excitement! See you in NYC! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually live in northern NJ so we leave for the ship tomorrow morning. Looking forward to visiting Bermuda again.

Homosassa Posted September 3, 2023 #46 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Nobody has answered your bagel question. You will be in NYC, so any local bagel place will have good bagels. Sign of a authentic shop - no bacon bagels on the menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted September 3, 2023 #47 Share Posted September 3, 2023 There were bagel shops in NYC mentioned in a couple of Live From threads on the Carnival board. Can’t remember if it was @IntrepidFromDCor @SaintGreg. National Geographic had an article on the origin of the bagel. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooh I never would have thought about that but it actually makes perfect sense. Thank you! Arrive in a little over an hour so that will be our first stop!!!

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 3, 2023 Author #49 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Unfortunately not walkable from the Portland cruise port, but European bakery in Falmouth, ME is seriously amazing. If you’re ever in the area for a land vacation check it out. They were just lovely to work with as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
