This is wonderful! Thank you for your generosity.

 

 

No problem Valley, glad you are enjoying it!

 

This is incredible! Thank you so much for doing this! We sail on 6/13 and this is an amazing teaser!

 

 

Thanks! You know anticipation is the best part!

 

Sailing next week, this couldn't be better timed, thank you for doing it! If you happen to spot a weekly drink specials menu, I'd really appreciate it if you could post what it lists. Hope you have a great cruise!

 

 

Thanks and glad your enjoying! I will find the drink specials if I can and post!

 

Love the updates and pics! We were on the Gem to Bermuda in May 2011 and it's nice seeing pics of the ship again!

Thank you for taking us along on your journey . I will be on the Gem in 15 days . How is internet speed ? When I sailed on the Gem last February Internet speed was brutally slow.

 

 

Thanks NY! Hope u have a great cruise. The internet is fair to good so far. As I mentioned, we were on rcl quantum last month and they tout a new type of internet service where it approaches low-end high speed at home and I admit they achieved it. It was amazingly fast compared to the gem so hopefully NCL follows suit with that beamed satellite service rcl described.

 

You're doing a wonderful job! Keep taking snapshots of the dailies! They seem to change quite often.

 

 

Will do more incoming today thanks for following along!

 

Great pics and information....thanks for all the work. Enjoy your cruise.

 

 

Thanks canadian!

 

Fantastic teaser as we sail next week.....can you let us know who the piano man is ?

 

 

 

Thanks and keep us wanting more :p

 

 

You got it Nancy&frank, hope you have a great cruise as well!

 

Love your cruise reviews and pictures!

My second most favorite spot. Sadly many newer ships forego a traditional promenade deck

No other place on the ship can you be so intimate with the sea

The gem slicing through the atlantic

Either they changed their croissant recipe or we received day olds as they were rock-hard, they were always my favorite, will have to try the again later. Ahh first world problems ..,

 

A well know ncl tip, the fishes on the carpet swim towards the front of the ship, we have always been different and swim to the aft :)
