Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 4, 2023 Author #76 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Muster drill crazy. Brass and anchor pub looks cute. Champagne bar not set up yet. Anyone want to add to the eternal debate… is gelato included in Yacht Club? So pretty on this ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 4, 2023 Author #77 Share Posted September 4, 2023 My husband got a pic of Liberty of the Seas calling on Portland from the air (when flying home with all three kids—he’ll accept your prayers. ) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once left my passport, cash, and all my jewelry in the safe on a Celebrity cruise. What a nightmare that was! I missed my flight home. I put a post-it-note in my suitcase that reminds me to check the safe. Then when I go to repack I see the neon green reminder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 4, 2023 Author #82 Share Posted September 4, 2023 We’ve left the pilot behind. A smaller boat picked him up and brought him to the mother ship! Thank you for your service, sir! (It was a man, I checked) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 4, 2023 Author #83 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Gasoline and cheap Amazon goods brought to you by the Port of NJ. All the container ships lined up to unload. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 4, 2023 Author #84 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Two French champagnes included in the YC drink package. I asked if I bought another one not included if I’d have to pay the full price or pay the difference and I got two different answers. I’ll test it out when I haven’t had so much to drink and I’ll better appreciate what I may or may not have to pay for. Chambord Royal included.

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 5, 2023 Author #87 Share Posted September 5, 2023 For dinner I had dumplings and clam risotto. And my Mom had scallops and grilled salmon. I had creme Catalan for dessert but the real winner was the tiramisu. Plus a huge birthday cake! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 5, 2023 Author #88 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Cruise director Mathias asked the crowd at the show if it was their first MSC cruise and almost 4/5ths of the non YC audience said it was. They’re definitely making a play for the US market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 5, 2023 Author #90 Share Posted September 5, 2023 (edited) The show “cool” was… loud…and colorful. I think a lot of the performers were really good it was just kinda hard to tell behind the pink plastic hair, fluorescent feather coats, and bleeding ears. One standout was a couple of Latin dancers who were honestly amazing. My Mom asked where the female dancer was from and it was Colombia which makes a lot of sense. Her figure though 😍. #lifegoals!! The real party was the 70’s dancing in the atrium. The ceiling changes are fun. Edited September 5, 2023 by Mycykfamilytime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 5, 2023 Author #92 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Serious question for the cruise critics experts. How can you have a day drink or two and then hang at night? I’m wiped and drinking sparkling water! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted September 5, 2023 #94 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Just a suggestion…I started out taking pics of the menus, but then found they were much clearer and no phone Shadow if I pulled them up in the app and did a screen shot.

Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 5, 2023 Author #95 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Good morning! Ship time change makes it a most 9:00 today. Some gentle rocking last night but nothing too aggressive. Not bad for barely missing the hurricane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 5, 2023 Author #96 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Coffee in the room and breakfast on deck! They also made me a fresh egg but I cut into it before taking a pic. (I’m still learning). No one wants to see egg smoosh. We met a lovely couple who wished my Mom a happy birthday after reading the blog so it’s nice to see a few of you are following along!!! At a minimum, I told my husband to come here for pics since texting pics is almost impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mycykfamilytime Posted September 5, 2023 Author #97 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Yesterday we didn’t do much but explore the ship and marvel at the New York skyline. We met a lovely local couple who knew all the beach names and islands. After we left the Big Apple behind, we unpacked and rested. I explored the ship and then we got ready for dinner! Today, so far, is breakfast on deck then the Captains reception at the Top Sail at 10:45. Chat with you then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely making inroads with the US market. Our first MSC cruise in 2018 out of Miami, over half the ship were Europeans. We liked it because it felt like we were in Europe instead of an extension of the US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our first with MSC was on Seaside in January 2019, and we loved the European feel of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
