  1. On embarkation day, pick up your show summary at The Social (which is the embarkation day box office).
  2. More cuts…. Literally. Rather than servicing chocolate covered strawberries as a treat… they cut the strawberries in half, then dipped them. They have zero shelf life now.
  3. We had a 6 pm departure today. By 5:30, the captain had dropped all lines and at 6:00 we were already heading down the Hudson. Haven boarding started at 11:00 today. Followed by special assistance passengers. Ambassador/Diamond/ Sapphire stated at 11:10. That’s when The Birds boarded so I don’t know the timing of the rest.
  4. MCT Haven waiting also leaves a lot to be desired. Miami Haven Waiting Area MCT Haven Waiting Area
  5. The 9/11 Memorial honors the 2977 people who lost their lives on the 2091 and 1993 terrorist attacks on the nation. The two reflecting pools mark the site of the North and South Towers and have the names of the victims inscribed. The twin waterfalls are the largest manmade waterfalls in North America.
  6. One World Trade Center. A symbol of the resilience of the country. At 1792 feet, it is the tallest building in New York, tallest biking in the IS, and tallest building in the Northern Hemisphere.
  7. SOL is on the starboard side. Manhattan on the port side. With rain gone and the sun out, The Birds watched sailaway from Deck 17. With the ship moving, the windchill was probably in the low 40’s which kept a lot of people inside.
  8. Farewell New York. We’ll be backing a week. FDNY gives the Joy a water salute as we leave NY harbor.
  9. This week on Joy a bit better. 476 guests with 7R and 2E.
  10. The benefit is $500. kinda like the shareholder OBC, it hits your account as $500 if you are a solo or two $250 of you are traveling with someone. It still takes a host to email finance to have a ShoreEx charge removed or reduced on the last night of the cruise.
