!!! NORWEGIAN ESCAPE !!! ^_^ The Ultimate Review and Complete Pictorial Guide

[gambee]

 

After that I met with Ty and Su at o’sheehans, they were having a quick dinner.

 

 

 

 

Su did not care for her hot dog.

 

 

And neither did Ty with his wings.

Then I went upstairs to get changed, and then went back down to 5’oclock to meet with the gang.

 

 

 

 

Your typical 2016 cruising table with all the phones at the table :D

After a little while mom came down and we went for our dinner at Cagney’s.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[gambee]

 

 

 

I asked for a table outside, but she told me that there was a wait for those. She then told me that she had a really good window table, so I thought that would be good as well.

 

Then they brought us to one of the aft tables, it had an incredible view!

 

 

[gambee]

 

Here is the wine list. It is quite extensive!

We had a great table.

 

 

 

I really liked the pattern on the carpet.

 

 

 

I got a dirty martini. You can still see my unfinished Gin on the background :D

And neither did Ty with his wings.

 

What flavor wings did Ty order? I didn't like the "Jamacian Jerk" but the "Buffalo" was good.

 

I didn't try the Texas BBQ or the Thai Chili.

Mom’s wine

 

 

 

He took our pictures, although I never even checked them out.

 

 

 

Mom got the lobster bisque, it was just ok, nothing out of this world.

 

 

I got the oysters rockefeller. Someone else in the group had recommended them to me, I think they had it the night before.

 

I really should have known better than to eat week old oysters… I would pay dearly for that later that day and the next day…

 

 

[gambee]

 

 

My rack of lamb was excellent! Sooooo succulent!!!!

 

 

Mom got the surf and turf. The lobster was good, but the steak quite dry for a medium rare. Not impressed... The Wagyu beef of Bayamo DESTROYS Cagney's!!!

 

 

[gambee]

 

Potatoes Gratin, they were good I guess. I just ate a little. Mainly because I was feeling my stomach starting to rebel and all that cheese would not have been the best.

 

 

Sweet corn was excellent.

 

 

Mushrooms.

 

 

And the truffle fries, they were ok I guess. I think that we just ordered way too much food. But my favorite of all the sides was the sweet corn.

 

 

For dessert mom got a berry creme brulle. I passed on dessert.

 

 

[gambee]

 

Here was our bill for the night. Service was good that night, but overall it was not our best dinner. Most people talk so good about this venue, but for us it was just ok. And I am not even mentioning what those oysters did to me.

 

 

After that I went to check out the buffet offering for dinner for the review.

 

 

 

 

 

[gambee]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[gambee]

 

 

 

 

I think that steak might have been better than cagney's fillet, at least it looks more juicy.

 

 

The salmon looked quite good.

After that I went to H2O to check out what was going on.

 

 

 

I think they were showing Everest.

 

 

 

 

[gambee]

 

Mom went to watch the Brat pack fully, and I went to 5 o’clock to meet with them. But by then my stomach was a real mess.

 

 

 

I did not stay long there, I really wasn’t feeling well.

 

On the way to the room, I remembered mom overheard some people complaining about the mirrors in the stairs. They said that they make things quite confusing. Especially for the drunk folks :D

 

 

 

I made it back to the room and mom was not there. Of course she walked in around midnight and turned all the lights on and woke me up :D LoL

 

 

Day 6, End.

Gambee, No need to respond but I just wanted to say thank you for your wonderful reviews! You have fantastic commentary, witty and practical, and of course fabulous photos! If we can't be on a ship, at least we can relive others adventures while we wait! Thanks so much again!

 

Ditto

Ummm, I am not sure. Maybe he will read your question. He said that they just did not taste right.

Never have I lived so vicariously through a review before, Gambee! Your Escape review is so thorough and amazing! MY DH and I are supposed to be on the Escape right now. I ended up being hospitalized Thursday night for pulmonary emboli and we kissed our week in the Haven Goodbye! Your review is definitely helping me with the last minute cruise cancellation depression!! Thank you for that! I love how you have come out of your shell and are showing us photos of you and your Mom, and putting yourself out there to meet new people! You are having so much fun! Your port plans in St Thomas and Tortola were exactly the same as ours, so I really appreciate seeing what we missed! Reviews are not an easy task, especially those as thorough as yours. Thank you for taking the time to do it!

Good luck in PT school! The time will fly by and soon you will be reviewing a Graduation Celebration cruise!

I had the Jamaican jerk wings. Not so good. [emoji41]

Hey! The plates match the carpet.

[swim13]

Seems like a perfect relaxing day at sea! :cool: Your last experience on the ropes course would also make me mad. They definitely should stop the line around 5:45 to ensure everyone can get a chance on the zip line! Perhaps they're reading this and will change that! :p
