For those Platinum cruisers, here’s the current freebie wine list.

The Captain admits he allows 2 days to get to Bermuda and 1 day back because it is always so hard to find.

FYSA. The General Manager, Ricardo, only has a few more hours on the ship. He leaves for vacation when we arrive in Bermuda. If it is like other ships, there may be a few shuffling of positions when he leaves.

The only table outside Teppanyaki and The Social was selling beverage packages.

Skyline Bar buffet. For steerage.

The Bird did not see any signage down in The Social (embarkation box office) for the Vibe. But was not looking for it. Yesterday it was in the low 50’s and raining most of the morning. It cleared up on the afternoon closer to sailaway. Once the ship got underway, the windchills were in the low 40’s. Today it is clear but chilly up on deck.

The Waterfront is an NCL innovation allocating a large amount of space to a relaxing outdoor spot for relaxation and entertaining. There are comfy sofas and chairs along both sides of Deck 8. During the day, restaurant tables can be used for reading, work (bad word on a cruise) and games. There are outdoors bars on both sides of the ship for a quiet drink while you watch the sunset.

We passed the SOL about 6:15 pm. About 45 minutes after we started backing out of the dock.

The boys from Liverpool on the big stage tonight.

On embarkation day, pick up your show summary at The Social (which is the embarkation day box office).

Cookies!

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.

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.
