NORWEGIAN SKY

Wednesday, October 07, 2009 Dear Diary Or whatever! Yesterday morning Judy and I arrived home from yet another cruise. I’m sure I said it before, but the reason we took this three dayer was so we would be frequent sailors on NCL (Norwegian Cruise Line) and thus get a discount on the one we plan on taking with them next February; a twelve day cruise in the Mediterranean; Greece, Turkey, Egypt etc. (Judy’s cousin Kathy is a lounge singer on the Norwegian Jade, this ship.) This last cruise was on NCL’s Norwegian Sky out of Miami. We sailed to Nassau the Bahamas and to Great Stirrup Cay, their private island and back to Miami. We never got off the ship. We have been to Nassau a couple of times already and we just didn’t bother with the island. We enjoyed the ship especially the dinning. NCL has “Freestyle Dining” where you don’t sit at the same table with the same people every night. In fact we dined alone at every meal. The first night we made 7:30 reservations at Cagney’s their steakhouse and the second night at Il Adagio’s their Italian restaurant. Each was excellent. To get on flights, we flew from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas and from there to Atlanta. We stayed in Atlanta overnight and flew into Fort Lauderdale on the 7:00 a.m. flight the next morning and from there we took the shuttle to the ship. Coming home we flew from Miami to Atlanta, couldn’t get on two flights so stayed overnight there again and took the 7:00 a.m. nonstop home. All in all we had a good time.
