The people were good. I never had any problems. Actually my first day when I wasn’t sure how to use things with the bus or subway someone stepped up and helped me without me asking for help. After that I was good. Using the subway helped a lot. I can’t imagine what that bill would be like if I took Uber everywhere. For those who say they would walk, I walked 55 miles in addition to the subway/bus rides I took. All the talk about beware of the subway. I think it’s overblown. It’s mostly normal people. And after that first night, I took the subway home at night. 11pm-1am. I didn’t mention those trips because I knew people would be telling me not to do it. It was fine. I only saw one seriously crazy guy harassing someone. Fortunately on the other side of the tracks. The guy just walked down further and sat down. He still screamed at him but never went down there. Actually the one night I walked all the way back was the time someone offered me drugs. A guy coming out of Ray’s pizza. That never happened on the subway. I never felt in danger anywhere. Even with everything I did there are still things I didn’t get to like intrepid, tram to Roosevelt island, walk the Brooklyn bridge, dumbo at sunset, walk the entire high line, the library from ghostbusters. I didn’t touch any of the museums so there’s that. I didn’t do a harbor tour. I’d probably like to see yankee stadium and maybe go to one of their games. Of course I want to see the Statue of Liberty but I’m holding out for when they re-open the crown. Then there will always be more Broadway shows. Hamilton for sure. I didn’t see all of Central Park. I didn’t make a dent in my food list. I really thought I was going to be able to eat a bagel each day. A slice of pizza each day. A hotdog each day..And work in meals. Didn’t happen. When I left L.A. I said I probably wouldn’t be back..unless I decide to tour a studio or something. I don’t know what else I would want to do there after the bus tour I took. But I will definitely be back to New York. Just a matter of timing since the cruises are mostly during the summer when prices are up or during football season where I can’t plan far ahead. Since I still haven’t booked for next summer which is unusual at this point…return trips to NY or Seattle are possible next summer. You did so much, I'm curious-what was your favorite play, food and site in NYC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted September 2, 2022 Author #1382 Share Posted September 2, 2022 From what I could overhear it sounds like those girls had a messy room so they’ve kept the Snoozin sign on the door the entire cruise so security was checking on them. 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted September 2, 2022 Author #1389 Share Posted September 2, 2022 It’s definitely a party boat. The night club is packed again. Like where you can’t walk in it. That’s two nights in a row. Ocean plaza also packed for what seems to be Latin night. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that count as one bag or two bags? That's not possible. They SHRINK things, they don't expand them. Please share your thoughts on how they fit now. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted September 2, 2022 Author #1394 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I got up 8:30. That 9am breakfast closing time snuck up on me. I just missed it. Everyone who didn’t eat before 9 is in the lido…which feels like everyone on the ship. They do have a small buffet in the back of lido that isn’t crowded. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted September 2, 2022 Author #1399 Share Posted September 2, 2022 My room is actually pretty quiet other than that ceiling rattling. When it stops it’s quiet. It’s surprising that I can sleep past 8 and not hear someone in the hallway. No talking, screaming, or door banging. Maybe it’s this location at the very front of the ship. I’ve been in this area for four straight cruises. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
