New Years 2018-19 on Vista

[familycruise41]

We will be on the Vista the week of New Years (2018-2019). What can we expect the night of NYE? Is it an elegant night? What do we need to pack for clothes -- how fancy? First time cruising in 19 years...

Nothing is fancy. They have given glasses of cheap champagne on New Years Eve. I cant say if it will be elegant night or not, i doubt they change the regular set up of which nights are so called elegant, which isnt very elegant like they used to be.

 

The xmas decorations should still be up which I always enjoy

 

Be sure to try the skyride. I did it in the wind,and it was a little more adventourous than I expected on a windy day. but they closed it down right after me. 

 

There are two board things. the hard one is too hard for me but my roomie did it and was surprised. two places its just a rope you walk over. If you fall off the rope you have to pull yourself back onto the rope to finish. Im not that strong. I saw a young kid fall off the rope, luckily he didnt weight much. Then there is a very easy rope course with boards you just walk across.

 

Dont miss the BBQ, its in a odd place mid deck 5.

 

We turned out to really like the salads made in those tostado bowls at the mexican place where they add meat.

 

there is also a good salad bar on deck 15 in the serenity which i think not many find, but there wasnt any salt there, so I only ate there once. 

 

But dont expect people to dress like they did 20 years ago. Its changed, even for a new years eve cruise. I used to wear formals, not any more.
