MSC Meraviglia is a 172,000 gross ton cruise ship with a wide variety of bars, restaurants, lounges, and as we show here, pools.  In fact, there are so many pools and hot tubs we made this video just to show them off.  This was filmed during our August 2021 cruise to MSC's Ocean Cay in The Bahamas...

The best thing about today is that it was a sea day, and I love being able to just relax and explore the ship if I want.  The worst part is that it was the last day of our Meraviglia cruise, but I tried not to let that weigh on me as I lounged, while also finding some places on the ship I'd not yet noticed

Our one and only port of call on this three night cruise is to MSC's private island in The Bahamas.  The major cruise lines all have these types of destinations, but because this property was only recently developed, I was excited to see how it compares to others.

Today we boarded MSC Meraviglia for a three night cruise to their private destination, Ocean Cay.  It's a trip of firsts, which we'll discuss, and we're excited to experience and share it all.  Because this is a three night cruise though, I'm going to keep the live blog short, but will cover more details in the days after our cruise.
