I snuck down to my cabin to get rid of my bags and throw my cash in the safe. At least I can really explore now. 

 

Onda...

 

 

 

 

Loving this novel-length review! The decor in Onda looks like an inside out cinnamon bun.

Hi Sid,

Your excellent live review was part of my prep for a B2B in a Prima Studio Feb 12-26. My trip was better because of you.

I thought of you when I saw the Sex Pistols/Sid poster in Syd Normans and include a photo as thanks and homage to both Sids.

Portia!

Just a quick little update to let you all know that I haven't forgotten about the traditional thank you list... Cml4958 was kind enough to keep track of all the usernames who responded "in order of first appearance"... I'm almost finished retyping them all up, and I'll hopefully have it posted some time tomorrow. Thank you all for your patience.........

[All-ready2cruise]

Thanks for your wonderful review Sid.  

[NikiPinkston]

You are so thoughtful, Sid. It is we who heartily thank you! You rock!

OMG.. just got caught up. I was on page 20 when I left for my B2B on the Dawn. Paid bills, then onto CC to read this review. Amazing as always as you have such a talent for writing and photography. Guess there was a new twist on this review that brought some smiles to your face so glad to see that. Now to catch up on the Tribe and @Saint Greg's review.

 

[sid_9169]

Well, that time has finally come for me to try and give back a little love to all of you at Cruise Critic who were such a major part of my epic adventure on the beautiful Norwegian Prima... It took me a bit longer to put this together, but I haven't forgotten about you fine people. So, without further delay, the traditional (better late than never) thank you list, featuring every single username of those who commented along the way... Of course, I would also like to thank the those of you who "followed" but didn't comment, as well as the "lurkers" too... In order of first appearance:

How can you stop now? Look at that list!! That’s definitely your longest one so far. And your best review SO FAR 😀

[Elsammo46]

Thanks for another great one, Sid! Enjoy scarlet lady later this year too!

Till we sail again....

[#55worktoplay]

Fantastic review and quite a list!  Rock on Sid!

[Sherry84]

Awesome review as usual Sid and thank you for the mention 🙂 

[ontheweb]

This was the first Sid review I had ever read. I joined in since we have an upcoming Prima cruise. I am so glad I did. 😊

 

Though I am also a little sad knowing that there were more of these in the past that I never read.

 

Again thanks for the review.

Well, now you HAVE TO do a live review!

[Sugar Magnolia]

Am really loving As Sid's World Turns...

[TeresaJ]

Great review, thank you for sharing! I am a Carnival and NCL cruiser and a lurker of all other cruise lines so I will need to read your Virgin Voyages review now. I love your writing style and point of view. Also, I love a good margarita, what do you put in yours? They always look delicious, makes me want to make one here at home.

The food so far has been spectacular, and I could almost just eat here every day. There's enough variety to make at least several "included" meals out of. 

 

 

 

@PistolPete13 gave a good overview of it in his review as well. . . it is so completely right up my alley, should I ever make it to this esteemed vessel. 

[KmomChicago]

All caught up @sid_9169. Thanks and what a great new ship and experience NCL has put together. Always nice to see you so happy. Waiting now for the next on VV. 

[sid_9169]

Well, it's getting to be that time again! Join me for a little adventure on Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady sailing from Miami on Sunday May 21st, visiting Cozumel and Bimini...

Great review ☺️

[sid_9169]

I'm resurrecting this old review in case you all want to join me and JinxyB for some hijinks on the high seas on board Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady heading to Key West and Bimini... Heading out tomorrow to Miami!...
