AW - booked our cruise

DH and I will be going on a cruise (I hope it becomes a babymoon) in early Sept.

We're leaving from NY and going to Bermuda on NCL (we got a great deal).  It wasn't our first choice, we love Royal Caribbean, but there aren't many options leaving from NY in Sept going somewhere warm :)  Everyone is going to Canada and while I love my friends up north, we wanted to lay on a beach Paradise

It's nice to have something to look forward to.

Thanks for all the recs cuties :)

If you've sailed NCL, feel free to share any tips.

  • That's the same cruise we went on a year ago! You're probably going on the Norwegian Dawn. We loved it.....you have to eat at Cagney's Steakhouse one night, it's amazing!  When we were on the ship the entertainment company was the Jean Ann Ryan Co. and they were incredible, I hope they're still on there!

  • I did NCL out of NY, but it was one of those cruises to nowhere.  We just sailed out past LI and looped around and came back.  It seemed like there was a lot to do, but we didn't have enough time to do it all.  Have fun!

    7 nights

    No, it stops in Bermuda for 3 days.

    the only other option was Bahamas from NY and I've been there 2 times and we did a RC to bahamas from Miami a couple of years ago. 

    We decided Bermuda since we both haven't been there.
