Good Morning Cruise Critics! Welcome to what I hope to be a Live Report from the awesome NCL Breakaway as we sail to Bermuda this week. We had originally planned to sail yesterday to Bermuda onboard Royal's Anthem of the Seas, but at the last minute booked Breakaway due to a family commitment on Saturday the came up just as we were going to book.

 

So we will have a 7 day cruise instead of a 5 day cruise, so a win none the less! We are all packed and about to head up the Jersey Turnpike to arrive at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal by 10-10:30 am. We are lucky enough to be in the Haven this week, in a Forward Penthouse, so depending on quality of the wifi, I hope to have many pictures and hopefully some videos to share of all our; activities, cabin, the Breakaway and hopefully Bermuda. This is our 6th time on Breakaway, so we are plenty familiar with her, but we are looking forward to any changes since our last sailing in April 2016.

 

Some of our plans in a checklist format:

 

1) Have a safe and healthy trip! Lets hope.

 

2) Enjoy the Haven and see some sights and shows onboard.

 

3) Visit Horseshoe Bay in Bermuda. (Hoping for nice weather, currently the forecast is not that promising for the three days we are docked).

 

4) Make a withdrawal from the Casino College Fund. ( Lord knows we have deposited enough over the years :) )

 

5) Take tons of pictures and videos (wifi dependent) to share this week.

 

So, hope you can join us as we Freestyle the week away onboard Breakaway and invade Bermuda! See you soon from the road.

 

Our Home for the next week:

Cannot wait to see the pink sand between our toes again!

We're on the Breakaway in a few weeks and would appreciate snapshots of the freestyle dailies, information on the ship, and information on the dockyard preparations for the America's Cup which starts in 2 weeks.

 

Have a Great Cruise!

You're getting us excited and we're still 17 weeks away from our first sailing on Breakaway! We're also just a short NJTP ride from the pier - we drove up to Liberty State Park a couple of weeks ago to watch her sail by and it was a magical sight! Enjoy yourself, wishing you a safe and healthy trip and beautiful weather. And pls let us know if you find any nice shady spots near a railing on some deck where DH and I can sit with our bucket of beers watch the water go by. (And btw menu pics would be appreciated too!) Bon Voyage!

We're boarding her this morning, too, and great news: Bermuda forecast is now sunny and 75 for the first day we're there, a little sun and rain Thur and cloudy on Friday.

Look out for the Man-o-wars in the ocean! They're crazy looking! [emoji38] we'll be sailing in 2 weeks! Can't wait to see all the things they set up for the Americas Cup at the Dockyard!

Seadog, I just happened upon one of your reviews from the Breakaway from 2 years ago when looking for some Haven info. After reading through a bit, I went back to the front page, saw a live review from Breakaway, and look who it is! Here you go again!

 

Which room are you in this time? We'll be sailing in 12106 in five weeks' time. :cool:

Also, I'll repeat my recommendation from last time: http://weather.bm/ usually has the best forecast information. Not looking too shabby so far for your stay!
