Since there will be a ton of kids on the cruise, take advantage of the ship when they get off. We’ve sailed this week with our kids several times, DH gets off the ship with them in Florida, I stay on the ship.

Thanks.  I didn't know about the kids until I read it here.  Sounds like staying on the ship is a good plan.

You can ask in the Florida Departures Board (closest to a port of call forum).

 

Personally, I'd skip Disney and Universal. Too long of a drive for the time.

 

If you are into space, you could always go to Kennedy Space Center. Its worth a visit.

 

Otherwise, I'd probably enjoy the day on the ship.

Thanks.

Question: I didn't book any cruises at port Canaveral.  Is it worth getting off the ship to get there myself or spend time at Coco beach? I may just enjoy the pool, weather permitting if it's a nay.

If it's worth it, I may research the port to look at my options.  I heard there are plenty of taxis or Ubers. Believe it or not, I still didn't download the UBER app or know how to use it!

Sorry if this has been already answered.

TIA

2015, I seem to remember lobster in every Specialty Restaurant.    

I think if your basis for measurement is 2015, you will be terribly disappointed.    

The food today is good.   But I've been cruising NCL a long time and even during the decade where NCL's food was truly awful.......You know that's when we coined the term..."Subjective".    Back then it wasn't subjective, it was awful!     But then around 2013/2014 (can't remember) NCL decided they needed to be more competitive and the food improved dramatically.    Around 2015 it was really good!    Great cuts of steaks, lobster.....there really was no reason in 2015 to complain and like I said, I never fell in line with the bull...."Food is subjective" folks!!

The food now is still good.   There isn't lobster to be seen on the whole ship, not even if you are willing to pay a huge premium, you can't even get it.   The steaks are good but not like they were a couple years ago.    I don't hear people complain about the food, I saw no reason for complaint.     But it isn't to the quality standards of 2015.

I was really looking forward to having lobster on my upcoming cruise, the Norwegian Gem, sailing on Nov Nov 3rd.  I think the last time I sailed must have been around 2014, if I member correctly, and I was on the Princess.  I had lobster then.  I'm disappointed.  I'm not going to lie.

I tried other pictures but they were all too big to upload - so my cheesecake pic will have to do, lol. It was taken 3yrs ago, I believe.  Thank God for good lighting.

I think I did it!!

I thought I did but I don't see anything.  Can someone confirm???

thank you!  I didn't see the topic right after I posted but now I do...

the topic was Norwegian - Nov 3rd 

I just posted something and created a new topic under the help section and I can't see it

Question:  I've been to the Bahamas before, a long time ago, but was wondering if there's still a free beach near Atlantis?  Last time I was able to take a taxi to Atlantis and then to the free beach (my memory is going).

When it was time to get back to the ship, a line of taxis would be there to take you back. I'm planning to do the same on Port Canaveral/Coco beach. Haven't priced the port Canaveral excursion yet. 

ALSO, i don't want to get stuck in any Hurricanes, bad weather (who does, LOL AND I KNOW YOU CANNOT PREDICT) BUT best guess scenarios to those in the know - according to the Weather Channel, no bad weather for the next 5 days and I read something that as we get closer to November the likelihood lessens.  Is that TRUE?  

I'm also a little nervous as I'm a solo cruiser BUT i make friends easily - i was hoping that with a ROLL CALL I'd meet others from this group but with the state of this website not sure this will happen.  I have a cabin on hold and need to let Norwegian know no later than today though I heard there are plenty of spots on this cruise...

Thanks!

Thanks. I hope so as I desperately need tips for the Nov 3rd cruise to Port Canaveral and Bahamas!  Trying to decide whether to book it or not.  Using my smartphone which seems to be working much faster than my computer at work

I used to occasionally use the site to read reviews and live vicariously through others, lol, and just recently joined AND noticed how much slower it is to get anywhere so much so that I finally have up and went to another site.  I have IE at work.  Should I be using Chrome?  I don't have safari.
