Hi guys! We are booked on your cruise. Gay couple in early 40's from Wilton Manors (Fort Lauderdale).

 

We are in Istanbul 2 days early and 1 extra night in Barcelona. Just planning our shore time right now.

 

Good to hear from you! We will be arriving in IST on the 12th, staying one extra night at the Axel in BCN and then on to London for 3 days as one of our good friends from London is having his birthday party on the 27th.

 

I am responsible for excursions in Istanbul, Izmir, Croatia and Athens. I have them all booked. Tony, (my partner) is taking care of the remaining ports. He has not even started, (once you meet him you will understand).

 

This will be our third trip on the Jewel. We really like Le Bistro and Cagney's, the gym is pretty nice, and dancing at Spinnaker's is always fun. There will be a FOD party every night in the Star Bar. Average attendance has usually been about 10-15 guys on our previous NCL cruises.

 

We are glad to see you are sailing with us and look forward to meeting you!

Sounds like it will be a fun cruise. Glad to hear you have enjoyed the ship. This is our first time on Norwegian, but loved the itinerary so willing to give it a try.

 

We will be staying 2 nights at Hilton ParkSA in IST and Le Meridien for one night in BCN.

 

Looks like we are going to have a driver in Izmir to Ephesus. We already have one in Naples to see Pompeii and the Almalfi Coast. We will probably do the other cities on our own. I have spent hours researching on the Internet, so now feel comfortable enough not to need a tour. We like to have our own agenda and time schedule when touring.

 

We look forward to meeting you both as well!

Sounds like a plan! We will probably be out late in Istanbul on the 12th, but will be there at the Star Bar on the 13th.

 

Any word on others booked for our cruise?

 

Will you send me an email.....taustin98@comcast.net
