Shower & toilet area are superior than older ships. Very good # of 110 and 220 outlets, plus USB-A and USB-C charging ports. Thank you for the bathroom pictures. It is nice to see a regular balcony cabin bathroom is now a better size and layout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted November 21, 2023 Author #193 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I am told they have hash browns in BK, but it's not open - location closed for whatever reasons. Back to The Local ? Good use of space 🤔🤔🤔 Hotdogs are okay, but the new wings, can't get a pass from 4 informal judges. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted November 21, 2023 Author #194 Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Looking again at MSC Seaside as we head to our home away from home. Several NCL Haven pax, a couple with 3 children early disembark the Prima, all their luggage in a cart pusher by a crew and escorted by a Haven staff, leaving on Day 2 ... 😲 changed their mind about doing TA ?? First, a little touch-up paint. Let's go West. Edited November 21, 2023 by mking8288 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, generous space in the shower area for plus sized folks, and toilet spacing that does contribute to banged up legs, deeper open shelves with stoppers to optimize storage. Extra clean towels under the sink for use since housekeeping services is once a day only. Nice rainforest style showerhead with 4 settings & adjustments, and rest for leg shaving. Requested our coffee maker & it's well stocked with extra supplies. The best part, the larger "regular" balcony ... And, we're going 22 knots last night and barely felt any ship movement - from Deck 9 Mid. Glad we didn't spend more for the club balcony - saved the money to do shorex & shopping, and eat meals locally while ashore. DIY selfie walking tours - come join us to just "wing" it - Bard & Google Map as our guide, plus Live Translate.

Rare mking8288 Posted November 21, 2023 Author #196 Share Posted November 21, 2023 MSC Seaside just sailed, we should be underway soon, once they cleared the path thru the harbor channel for us to turn out to sea - basically on time at 18:00 - 2 sea days to Ponta Delgado, Azores is next stop. Windy App looks okay for our passage to get there from here. Dinner is next - Commodore 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
