Most interesting things to bring home ( or eat ) are chocolate and all types of black licorice and salt. There is even a Costco located near the airport if you are a member that had just opened when we were there in 2019. Just loving your review as well everyone else’s experiences. It is helping with my TA withdrawal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexddd Posted May 6 #658 Share Posted May 6 What's up with the yellow apple under the sweet rolls? Some kind of sail and sustain message? Breakfast took awhile because there were 95 other tables before as they serve in table order number. Systems in place for efficiency. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sugar Magnolia Posted May 6 #659 Share Posted May 6 Top of the morning to you all. Cherry cookies were spotted at the buffet this morning. A crew member walked around with a tray of cookies offering to everyone and then bypassed me. “Excuse me, you didn’t offer me any cookies.” He didn’t expect that attitude so early in the morning. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK already helped answered & explain, I concur 100% from experience & knowledge. It's something that I don't do at airport public charging stations - and - the reason for carrying the battery bank to boost & recharge. Ship's outlets aren't exactly "public" unless it's hacked by ship security or housekeeping with access to tap into the wirings ... there are many other ways of gaining access if and when it's being carried out. Evil apps sneaked into Play Stores and those continued to be a problem. There are countermeasures available but ... nay, I am not worried or going to be paranoid about. It's the banking and corporate database breaches that can inflict more damaged ... enough said. Thanks for following along, again and to allow us to share the journey.

Rare bedfordmom Posted May 6 #665 Share Posted May 6 I found that on the TAs that local authorities did the Xray and could care less if you were bring on alcohol or soda. I think they had more important things to search for. In fact in Lisbon there was a very busy duty free shop after xray and there was it nothing NCL could do lol. The exception for my cruise was Bermuda (expected that from past cruise) Ibiza and believe it or not Florence. As the latter was out last stop NCL didn’t care to confiscate the liquor only to give it back one hour later 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JIMESOPUS Posted May 6 #666 Share Posted May 6 @mking8288 Thanks again for all the local photos, loved the ones inside the store, but could never really figure out that conversion to dollars, any specials. I'm surprised you got the case aboard the ship. I hope everyone is well rested, the next few days look to be somewhat rocking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted May 6 Author #667 Share Posted May 6 (edited) @JIMESOPUS Thanks for the heads up. More photos from this morning to come.
