Thank you so much! Carol was incredibly brave!! She did such a good job. That’s one of the best things about these cruise vacations. The opportunities to do new and exciting things are endless!! There are great activities on board. Just do it! You won’t regret it!🚢
@@sharonzakosek641 yes she is but I honestly think she has made me want to do one. I don’t think the 2 ships I’m going on have it though. But the Bahamas port does have a zip line that I am considering! 😳
Looks so exciting, I cannot wait for our cruise in just 27 more days! We will be on the NCL Jade. We have dinner reservations for Moderno and I know it will be great! I have eaten at a couple different Brazilian Steakhouses in Nashville and in Gatlinburg, TN and they were awesome. The pineapple is my fave!! Ya'll are doing such an awesome job on your channel. Keep it up!
Thanks so much!!! Moderno was great!! Make sure to get the fillet, the signature steak, and the lamb. They were the best by far. You are going to have the most amazing time!! #wishwewereonacruise 😁🚢🎉
@@genxtravelsister reach out anytime, keep it up. You only get better with time! And getting ready to go on that first cruise has to be so exciting!! Cannot wait for you😁🚢
Yeah, it was starting to get warm while we were there. We brought these little fans amzn.to/3ZYedmR Best $7 we’ve ever spent. We would never travel without them again.
First and foremost, thank you for sharing your adventures with us. I look forward with great anticipation to the continuation of your vlog about this cruise in the Mediterranean. We will be making the same trip on the Norwegian Escape from September 10 to September 20 and hope that we can learn something from your experience. Greetings from Belgium. You must forgive me for any spelling errors because I am not used to communicating in English.
@@frankspiessens1714 Thank you!! We love hearing from people. You’re our first commenter from Belgium 🇧🇪 Welcome! So excited for you and the upcoming trip. Which port are you most looking forward to?
@@corefouradventures2861 I am most looking forward to Livorno (Florence/Pisa). I booked a private tour from home to visit Pisa and Florence. So I am very curious about your experience in Florence and Pisa in your next video. Greetings Frank.
@@frankspiessens1714 Florence was amazing! We would definitely go back. And, we took some great pictures in Pisa. You’ll have to share your experience when you get home. Let us know if you would return to Florence. And, of course, watch this Sunday for our Florence and Pisa vlog!!😁🚢
@@MerryVaughn58 Just sisters 👯♀️ But we’re close both in age and as BFFs ❤️ You’re going to have so much fun!! That’s pretty much exactly our trip. We loved Barcelona!! And Cannes was super cool too. 🇫🇷🇪🇸🚢
@@MerryVaughn58 We don’t, sorry. But, reservations will be available in your app about 30 days ahead of sailing 😁 The girls would not miss this show!! LOVE Choir of Man!! 😁🚢
@@CarolynDevery Understandable, Carol did amazing!! I (Laura) didn’t feel like my physical ability was strong enough to do it either. But, I will say, you’re locked in a harness to catch you in case you fall. So, you might watch a couple people do it in real life and assess. But if you don’t feel like you can, there’s so many other fun activities. Best part of a ship there’s something for everyone.😁🚢
I have been reading about being charged a 21% VAT on purchases including drinks on NCL cruises leaving from Spanish ports. This is over and above a free at sea drink package where gratuities have been charged. Is it true? We will be going on this same itinery same ship in Oct. I saw this on cruise critic chats.
Yes, when in Spanish and Italian territorial waters you will pay the VAT tax on any beverages you get even with the free at sea drink package. But, the free drinks are $15 or less so, it will be $3.25 or less per drink. They just charge your key card and it goes on your onboard account. That being said, it only added up to less than $50 per couple. Once the ship gets out into international waters there’s no VAT tax. We just drank when we wanted and didn’t worry too much. I have heard of people getting extra drinks like wine while in international waters. They save it in a thermos style water bottle in their room for when in port.
Wow!!! Really I didn't know that!! So this 21% is added to the service charge that we allready payed?.you say Spain and Italy....we cruised with Azamara last year ..did Spain and Italy we were never charged this vat tax. Is this a new thing or is just NCL ? Thanks....
@@frankpicillo9527 We have heard not every cruise line has to charge it but we don’t know why. It could be because you were on an Italian line they didn’t have to charge it. Or, they accounted for it when they charged you for the drinks without splitting it out like NCL.
