*LIVE* from the MSC Seascape – 7-Night Eastern Caribbean – March 16-23, 2024

[BirdTravels]

But sadly, gone are the horse drawn carriages, replace with a tour bus pick up area. 
 

[BirdTravels]

With over 20,000 passengers in port today, Bay Street and downtown Nassau is a bee hive of activity.

If you want ideas for alibi peers, go to the Straw Market. There are endless rows of vendors. Don’t forget to bargin for the best prices.

We board the Seascape on the 23rd as you're disembarking... Looking especially forward to reading this!

Yes. It is one of the mid- and late-seating MDRs. It is traditional assigned time seating. The Birds have My Choice (eat any time) dining.

O.K., when The Bird posted pics of the Cocktail Bar, the The Bird inadvertently posted the general cocktail menu instead of the Cocktail Bar menu

Actually, the Aurea dining room is the Aegean.

After a beautiful day in Nassau, it’s time to move on to San Juan. 

 

The Colonial [Hilton] was the cruise ship terminal for the first ship sailing in North America after the Pandemic. The Birds were on that very first Royal Caribbean cruise which was totally surreal with all of the COVID protocols in place and less than 10% of the local population vaccinated.

Day 2 Main Dining Room

 

The Captain MDR a public address announcement thanking the crew and informing the passengers that US health inspectors were onboard yesterday, and the ship scored an Outstanding 98 out 100.

Mr B will be delighted to see Gateau Opera on the menu (as well as Moules Marinières).

We once cruised on St Patrick’s Day (TA from Santos to Genoa).  The only place decorated was the casino - with ’The luck of the Irish’ signs posted everywhere in the venue.  🤣 (I think we were the only Irish onboard and ‘the luck’ certainly was not with us. 😢

[Beamafar]

Photos much appreciated.  😊
 

On one of our cruises Mr B requested a second helping of mussels.  The waiter brought him a basin-load. 😆  (He scoffed the lot!).

All of the hallway touch screens have switched to a St Patrick’s Day theme.

I really appreciate that you’re not referring to it as ‘St Patty’s Day’.  Geez, A) Patty is a girl’s name, and, B) it’s affectionately called ‘St Paddy’s Day’ (or even just ‘Paddy’s Day’).

Want a dinner and a show? Kaito Teppanyaki is where you want to go. 
 

[Beamafar]

Teppanyaki is incredibly popular.  I’ve seen it totally booked out on a 23 night cruise.

MSC is trying to cut costs in the galley. So, some of the fish dishes are coming out without being cooked. If you feel the need for some sushi, Kaito Sushi Bar, home of the famous conveyor belt sushi, is the place to go. 
 

[Beamafar]

Here’s how some of the dishes actually appear (though on a different ship)
