  3. Hello everyone and good day. Today was a very relaxing and restful day. After the Meet and Greet, I was able to have lunch in Garden Cafe' on DECK 16. There were many plentiful and delicious options at the buffet. The pool deck was very crowded, and it seemed like it was wall to wall passengers. It was such a nice day that many passengers took advantage of the good weather and sunshine. I had to "watch news" after lunch, and I was down hard for a couple of hours. The beds are very firm, but it suited me just fine. I was lucky enough to get invited to an Officers Reception in the Haven Lounge. I think I was invited there because I organized and and set up the Meet and Mingle Cruise Critic group. I loved the Haven area. It is beautiful and very relaxing. I had two cruises with Haven accommodations a few years ago and now I want to stay there for a future cruise. Here are some pics from today. Thanks for tuning in. Radio A sunny day and blue skies were enjoyed by many passengers. There are over 4,200 passengers so I'm bored this cruise. The Haven Horizon lounge is very nice. I love the private pool area. The Haven concierge lounge is very inviting. .

  6. Hello everyone good morning. Welcome to DAY 2 of "LIVE" from Norwegian Joy. Norwegian Joy left New York a little before 4pm. yesterday. The temperature was in a low 70's but it was a little cloudy with no rain. The Casino opened around 6pm, I had to check out how things were. I like the fact that the slots will be open all night long for the next two nights until we arrive in Bermuda. While we are in Bermuda the casino will be open from 9pm until early morning. I went to dinner last night at the "Q" Texas Smokehouse, and it was very good. I was able to enjoy a nice brisket with a side of jalapeno grits. The grits we're good but very hot. There was a live country music band playing that played very well but the volume was a little loud. This morning I am co-hosting a Cruise Critic Meet and Mingle at the District BrewHouse at 11am. My co-host has put together several small raffle gifts for some attendees. Here are a few pics from last night in this morning. Thanks for tuning in. Radio The Statue of Liberty We passed under the Verrazano Narrows bridge. "Q" Texas Smokehouse There was plenty of room in here. My brisket was wonderful Joy Casino offered playing cards and dice for sale. 6-7-8 Atrium DECK 6 Early morning on DECK 16 The sun was starting to come up. There are only a few passengers up this early. The Observation lounge on DECK 15 is very quiet. I love that there is a full Starbucks kiosk in the observation lounge. .

  9. Most passengers have not had a problem, but no cars are parked at Pier 92. Deckwork is being done there. I had a reservation, but two cars behind me had no reservation. . . I arrived around Noon. . . Radio
  10. Hello everyone and good day. Norwegian Joy has left Manhattan, NYC, and is on her way to beautiful Bermuda. MSC Meraviglia will be ahead of us on this Bermuda voyage but will arrive on Tuesday. Norwegian Joy will arrive on Wednesday morning and will only be traveling about 10 kts. I'm not sure how many passengers are on board, but I think we may be at capacity. Embarkation day is always the busiest and most stressful day of any Cruise. I'm sure things will start calming down as the night progresses. I have a standard balcony solo cabin on the starboard side of Deck 12. It is a basic cabin and it has all the normal cabin amenities. I like the fact that it has a glass shower with no curtains. It is a little strange that there are no drawers anywhere in the cabin, but it does have many shelves in several places. Here are a few pics from entering the terminal and on board Norwegian Joy. Thanks for tuning in. Radio I approached the Lincoln Tunnel which would take me under the Hudson River and to Manhattan. I'm not sure why, but I really don't like the Lincoln Tunnel. I drove by a Carriage Ride on 11th Avenue and 42nd Street And I can see my home for the next 7 nights. Norwegian Joy is a beautiful ship. Workers are busy prepping. The terminal was crazy busy but I was able to make it from this point onto the ship and only 15 minutes. I don't think I remember this terminal having food vendors. This photo props before you board And away we go . . . Almost there. . . Norwegian Joy from New York Port webcam (PTZtv) .
  11. Hello everyone. Today is DAY 1 of "LIVE" from Norwegian Joy. I had a good sleep last night in the hotel. I stayed at Embassy Suites (On International Blvd) in Elizabeth. This hotel is very close to Newark Liberty International. The hotel was clean, and the food was good. (They have coffee 24hrs/day) I will be leaving here soon to drive to Pier 88 and board Norwegian Joy. I should arrive at the Pier around 12-12:30. I am hoping the traffic won't be too bad. Oh, by the way . . . Today is CRUISE DAY See you on board. Radio Pier 88 Embassy Suites Hotel I set up a Cruise Critic Meet and Mingle for Monday What day is it? .
  12. Hello everyone, I made it to Elizabeth, NJ in one piece. It took me about 3 hrs to get here from Maryland. I had to watch news when I arrived, but I was up in time for a light dinner. Today is a “Radio Rest Day” It should only take about 30 min to drive to Pier 88 tomorrow. My check-in time is 12-1230. The forecast for tomorrow is partly cloudy (but no rain) and 78f. Norwegian Joy (to Manhattan), Anthem of the Seas (to Bayonne), and MSC Meraviglia (to Brooklyn) are all heading up to this area and should arrive early tomorrow morning. Tomorrow is Cruise Day! Radio I am happy that there are two Starbucks Kiosks on Norwegian Joy. Pier 88 in Manhattan Norwegian Joy Itinerary Cruise Ships sailing from Brooklyn, Bayonne, and Manhattan tomorrow.

  15. Welcome to "LIVE" from Norwegian Joy Hello everyone, and good day. The Sea is Calling. Tomorrow I will be driving up to Elizabeth, NJ for a pre-cruise hotel stay. The next morning (Sunday) I will head to Manhattan Cruise Terminal (711 12th Ave, NYC.) to board Norwegian Joy. The last time I sailed with Norwegian was in 2016 (Norwegian Escape from Miami). Norwegian Joy was the first Breakaway Plus class ship built for the Asian market in 2017. It didn’t last long though, as she was redeployed to North America after an extensive refurbishment (USD 50m) to redesign her public spaces in 2019. We will be sailing to one of my favorite ports of call, Bermuda, where we will be docked at Heritage Wharf Pier at the Royal Naval Dockyard. I haven’t been to Bermuda in a few years and can’t wait to return. The forecast for next week should be mostly sunny and clear with temps in the mid-70s (f). Norwegian Joy recently completed a 3-week drydock in January 2024 to expand the Vibe area (where the Laser Tag area used to be on Deck 20), and the Expanded Thermal Suite was added (Where the Galaxy Pavilion was on Deck 16.) I have been following many reports that have suggested that the new StarLink Wi-Fi (Added in Jan 2024) has been touch and go, but I will be putting it to the test for a few days. You will be viewing the ship through my eyes, and I will provide you with my thoughts onboard. Some friends and family will be joining me on this cruise, and it should be a lot of fun. I look forward to entering The Passenger Terminal at Pier 88 on Sunday just before boarding Norwegian Joy. There will be much more coming in just a few days . . . Thanks for tuning in.

  19. My Cabin D624 (Standard Balcony CAT BB) Portside MID AFT Radio The storage area was very spacious There is no sofa in a STD Balcony Cabin The bed was very comfortable The desk area is a perfect place for the "Radio Press Room" The US and EU plugs were on each side of the desk. The phone was handy for getting messages from Guest Services 5 drawers were available for electronic storage of socks/undershirts The Table behind the desk had a mini fridge underneath This cabin was a great size for me I wish the shower had glass doors There was plenty of room for me, even at 6'3" Lotion and Bodywash were very nice The water pressure was fantastic Even the shower has body wash and shampoo There was no obstruction when you looked out The only partial obstruction was if you looked down 2 chairs and a table were on the balcony .
