deliver42 Posted July 29, 2017 #801 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Thank you, Doug. Great review. We are on the Escape this coming December, and can't wait. Following you made the wait a little easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjbdtz Posted July 29, 2017 #803 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Sent from my iPhone using Forums I'm pretty sure they stole this design from Bugatchi. I was actually wearing this shirt the first time I went into the Escape theatre. Is that a live chicken in your pocket, or.... Great thread, thanks for sharing with us! Stephen .

mabones Posted July 30, 2017 #810 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Thank you Doug & Sue for sharing your family vacation. We will have to wait until January for our 2nd sailing on her. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bra_BE2014 Posted July 30, 2017 #811 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Doug - Way back around post #7, I asked for the District Brew House beer menu. In hindsight, I realize that was pretty rude of me because (A) I didn't even wish you a good cruise, (B) You don't know me, and © It's kind of presumptuous to ask someone to do some work for you while they're on vacation. So, to make amends, here's a little gift as a token of my appreciation for all your hard work. A 2017, commemorative TheDougOut Brew House Bingo Card. (You can click it for a full size version.) So... The next time you happen to find yourself in the District Brew House, with a camera in one hand and a beer in the other, would you be so find as to take a picture of each of the beer menu pages? Thanks! Thats really cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be coming on as you're getting off! That would have been great to see (and even join in with being as I still have a ton of clothes from the 80)!!!

Floating_view Posted July 30, 2017 #815 Share Posted July 30, 2017 I'll be going on my 1st NCL cruise in December on the Escape, and this was a great introduction to the ship. The DBH looks like a lot of fun, may even go for the beer challenge. Wonderful job from beginning to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jo Posted July 30, 2017 #816 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Thank you, everyone! Until next time... eDXfq7LYObw That was a perfect ending to yet another fantastic review. It almost brought a tear to my eye! Bravo Doug and thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaisyL Posted July 30, 2017 #817 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Really enjoyed your great review... thanks! Thinking of cruising her when she comes to NYC. Been on Breakaway and wondering what the differences are. Its been 3 years since we cruised NCL, and we are Platinum but Breakaway really turned me off. Willing to try again though.

SailBreakaway Posted July 30, 2017 #818 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Really Loved this review and I'm not really a review type of guy!! Sailing on her in May out of NY. Been 4 times BA and once GA, but now can't wait to conquer Escape! And, might as well change my name to "Norm", as I see myself at "home" on a stool at the Brew Pub. Enjoy that TA on Bliss. That is awesome. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

300dtc Posted July 31, 2017 #821 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Thanks for a wonderful review! I think I speak for all when I say your reviews make us all want to step up our cruise game! So glad only 19 days till I leave for mine, or I would be very sad right now. Till next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkchero Posted July 31, 2017 #822 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Thank you for all of the kind comments! While it's back to reality this morning, I must say that my office has never felt so homey... The countdown to Bliss continues... 264 days! I was fully expecting to see a bunch of rubber ducks scowling at you while you work . . . On a different note, I hope you enjoyed your time "adulting" with your daughter. My stepson turns 20 this week and it's been fun being able to include him in some of the adult activities. My wife is also an early-to-bed type so I've also enjoyed having someone else around to kill that last drink (in places where it was legal of course). Thanks again for letting us all tag along and enjoy your next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victorious8 Posted July 31, 2017 #823 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Thought of you today in NOLA. Maybe check out this place next time you cruise out of here on the Dawn! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eriko1908 Posted August 1, 2017 #824 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Question for you, Doug... My fiancé isn't really a casino guy, but I am... How far away is the DBH from the casino??? He is developing a plan to keep occupied while I have my fun... Thanks!!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDougOut Posted August 1, 2017 Author #825 Share Posted August 1, 2017 How far away is the DBH from the casino??? Approximately from the forward elevators to midship, and then down one flight of glass stairs - I'd say 1-1.5 minute walk. It would also be convenient to hang out in O'She's and/or watch the Atrium entertainment from above. This is on the same floor... steps away.
