*LIVE* from the Norwegian Joy – 7-Night Bermuda – May 12-19, 2024

[Big Red 85]

I'll have to remember to pack masks and a fake moustache while on the balcony. 🤓

[BirdTravels]

The Bird was looking for some crispy bacon and found some frozen bacon in the ship’s freezer. 800 pounds of bacon is served each day on the ship. 
 

For food safety, there are different freezers and prep areas for meats, poultry, seafood as well as fresh veg and dairy. 
 

Most frozen foods are shipped to the Joy from NCL central provisioning in Florida. Some fresh veg, dairy, and eggs are sourced in NY.

How are The Birds in the bacon cooler at 11pm? Do we get a view of the ship’s brig next? 😉

The brig is down on Deck 4. A respectful resting placed for the recently departed is on Deck 13.

Better bring your table loaded with movies, isn’t much on TV (unless you want to watch the safety video).

Oh No! Say it isn’t so… but it is already time to go. Don’t forget to pick up your luggage tags in the atrium. It is highly recommended to let the porters take your bags to the baggage hall ashore. Too many people “think” they can handle their luggage in crowded elevators (may take 30 minutes to get in an elevator - and everyone knows the trick to ride up, so that doesn’t help either), through crowded halls, down the very uneven gangway, through the terminal, through the baggage hall, through customs and out onto the street.

Back in the Atlantic Ocean tonight. Goodnight from the Norwegian Joy

[BirdTravels]

This is where the adventure started a week ago. Back home from the Bermuda Triangle.

For those boarding today, here’s a peek at your Day 1. 
 

[BirdTravels]

Coffee makers are still by request only. None were found hidden in the room. 

[DRGrammy]

Thanks again for doing this.  I watched you dock this morning.  I hope you had a wonderful cruise.

Rather than stocking the mini fridge with items that people feel compelled to tamper with, NCL has enhanced their in-room experience with SWIFT beverage service.

Want some breakfast in bed? Just call room service. Or use a hang tag to order in advance. There is a delivery charge for all room service order regardless of whether it is 1 muffin or 20 items.

Thank you. The Bird had a great time. 

[BirdTravels]

How about some lunch and dinner in bed? Just dial 065 and place your order (delivery charges for non-suites apply)

Thanks, Bird, for the excellent trip report and information on the Joy. It's very helpful for our planning for when we take this same trip in a few weeks. Safe travels home.

[Buford T Justiice]

Thank you for the review. The passenger book sharing leave a book / take a book program certainly has dwindled with the advent of kindles. On the Getaway in February there were 0.0 books available most of the time. The three I left were quickly scoffed up.

8:20 rides to LGA

 

The Bird normally books an XL to ensure there is space for our bags.

We need power!

 

At the desk, there are 3 US and 1 European outlets. 
 

In the bathroom, there is a 110V / 220V shaver outlet… for shavers only. 
 

The bedside lights have a USB outlet. BUT, from a cybersecurity perspective, you should never, ever use a USB outlet that you don’t personally own. Not at the mall, not at an airport, not in a hotel, not on a cruise ship. Always use your power cord. 

 

 

 

[BirdTravels]

Leave your hair dryer at home. The blow dryer on the ship is perfectly fine.

Did you happen to get a picture of the Day 7 MDR menu?  I didn’t see it when I was rereading about your trip.
