Looking good.  I live in Milford and go to skyline and Graeters all the time.  Have fun on your cruise.  My wife and I just returned from Princess cruise to NE and Canada.  We left from Red Hook Brooklyn terminal.  Cheers

 Cool..this is in Liberty, close to where I live!

Time to seek out my favorite room steward (Ninja Ferdinand) and show him some monetary appreciation.  Also have to spread some monetary love to my favorite bartenders.

 

Not set foot in any of the shops.  So, need to see if there are any bourbon deals to be had.

 

Then, will have to go to the Customer Service folks to settle my bill for the week.  As of right now, just a few Starbucks and a few $ in taxes for drinks while docked!

 

Solos are going en masse to SIX tonite.  Should be fun!

Ferdinand…ah yes…he was a ninja. We had him two weeks ago. We were in cabin 13194.  Tell him The Jett’s say hello.  I believe he will remember us.  Enjoy your last day!!

Dan - oh well, next time.  Enjoy tomorrow's full sea day - excellent weather ahead here in NY, dense fog expected in the morning (again, like today) but warm for this time of the year.  

 

Watching ship's track on marinetraffic, she's still hugging very close to the shoreline - should still be pulling in a decent land (cellular) signal as you go past Duncans Cove.  Ship captain must be in a hurry to bring her home to NY, they can slow it down - anyone in a hurry to disembark on a NYC Marathon Sunday.  Forecast - ETA: 2022-11-06 02:30 LT (UTC -4) 

 

That's super early.  

Had a code alpha in the casino around 1000, person didn't look in good shape, maybe for the rush or getting close for a helicopter?

Yes….look at the Ts and Cs with NCL.  One is a time frame requirement to claim the OBC.  Off the top of my head, I do not recall it.  It has been a great investment for me so far.

 Must have request in at least 2 weeks prior.

Recent reports has NCL being sticklers about this.

Enjoying your reports this week very much. I know you went back an hour last night when you left Halifax. I am guessing you will need to go back another hour tonight for the end of Daylight Saving Time. Unless you went back 2 hours last night. 

In all frankness, I have no clue what time it is right now!😳

Lunch…O’Sheehans….Reuben!

Tell me, was there a decent amount of sauerkraut on that Reuben.  Two weeks ago it was like a teaspoon on each side.  I told my DH it was probably a supply chain issue…but curious how your sandwich was.

Sauerkraut was there…but could have used more.  Funny, because of the entire sandwich, the sauerkraut was probably the least expensive component!  And that’s what they skimped on.  LOL!

Just back from Cruise Next…all solo rates….$1,800 for a Club Balcony…don’t know if I can stay in my current cabin but crew would take care of moving my luggage if I get a different cabin.

 

$1,400 for a regular Balcony.

 

Only one Cruise Next voucher can be used.  So, they’ll match my $250 purchase of one cert.

 

If I go through my TA, she’ll give me a $75 discount on the fare, and allow me to use my AMEX TO BOOK, which would give me $200 OBC and dinner at LeBistro+bottle of wine.

 

Latitudes gives me another $75 in OBC.

 

Can’t use Stockholder OBC since booking date is so close.

 

  TOTALS…

Club Balcony-$1,800 less $250 cert, less $75 TA discount=$1,475.

Plus $275 OBC/dinner/wine

 

 

Balcony-$1,400 less $250 cert, less $50 TA discount=$1,100

And, I get AMEX OBC of $100/dinner/wine and $25 Latitudes OBC.

 

Both include drinks/specialty dinners (not sure how many for a 2 week cruise), Excursion credits and some internet (not sure how much for a 2 week cruise)

 

This is for a 2 week repo cruise to New Orleans from NYC!

 

Waiting to hear back from DRs office for meds and where to get them.  Also waiting to hear from dog sitter.

 

Checking on flight changes…

 

It doesn’t help the @JamieLogical and @mking8288 are acting as my enablers…LOL!

We are on the 14 nighter. Hope you join us!

Still not clear on the time as we’ve had time

changes the last couple of days.  I’m probably going to get up way too early just to be safe.
