I’ll find out about NCL pretty soon. But it’s Alaska so it won’t be as much about the ship.

 

Yeah our trip had 6 ports so it wasn't exactly about the ship either, there were decks were didn't even hit. Would definitely like to cruise them again.

[Saint Greg]

It’s kind of surprising that they end the comedy so early on this ship. And none of the main lounge late night showcases. 9:45 was the last show last night and the same goes for tonight.

I was in the elevator. This kid is in there with headband. Wrist bands. The whole getup. He asks “Are you going to walk a mile with MarQ?” 
 

No I’m going to sit on the balcony with a Bloody Mary.

I took this angle because a chef was around that corner FaceTiming his family.

Reminded me of what a wonderful world we live in. In years long past, employees with long contracts had no cell phones, no face time and maybe were able to connect with family once in awhile with an expensive phone call.

[Saint Greg]

At one of the bars this morning there was talk about a fire alarm in the theater during one of the concerts last night. And a theater evacuation out by the lifeboats and talk of titanic and whatnot. Which by the way. We should be on or close to that path.

I've had a few but never with bubbles 

Could it be a Colorado Bulldog where they add a splash of cola?

The crew pay the same internet rates as guests so it's still expensive.

I posted a picture of a topless sunbather next to the kids waterworks park yesterday…

 

 

Yes you did. The other one looked like she might have been attempting her own version of a centerfold 🤭🤫

Q&A

[Saint Greg]

I took a couple of notes on things that might be interesting but not too long.

 

there’s a discrepancy on the guest count @jimbo5544 Guest services told me 4400. Here they said 3800 guests 1389 crew.

 

It was asked if any crew came from costa. Only two one being the executive chef who was on this ship prior to the shutdown.

 

it was asked how many pizza and burgers we will go through. They say the numbers are pretty equal and they’re expecting 7-8k of each on this cruise

Q&A

 

Love the Q&A sessions

[Saint Greg]

During Q&A they had ship building competition on lido. Was able to get a banana daiquiri and make it in time for judgement.

 

 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

It is lightly raining and the top is down.

we only put the top up after it stops raining for some reason.

 

 

[Saint Greg]

Down to final 3. This is 3rd place. Im pretty sure the guy is just holding a juice box.

 

 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

2nd place 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

It shouldn’t have been as close as it was. 1st place

 

 

[Saint Greg]

2nd place in action.

 

 

[Saint Greg]

These seats are plentiful in the rain.

No, I meant why they were flying the American Flag in the central rotunda/centrum, rather than the Italian one? 

Memorial Day and a lot of Americans are on the ship.

[Saint Greg]

They definitely have some different pepperoni.

I remember people talking about the celebration pepperoni being weird the first half of that cruise because they were still using pepperoni from Europe.
 

[Saint Greg]

I grabbed a beer at the plaza bar and slipped into the Carnivale to wait in my lunch table.

I don’t follow it at all. I was just sitting there between comedy shows because it’s the closest bar, the chair was comfortable, and it was just 30mins I needed to kill.

the last golf I watched was that last thing tiger woods won. And it was just the end. And probably only because I was in a bar that was showing it.

 

 

 

Thanks!
