Norwegian Escape Live Blog Day 8 - Disembarkation Day
Author: RicIn the middle of the night, around 3:30am, I woke up and decided to take one last tour of the ship before I had to say goodbye. This may be a good time to mention something I left out of the Day 7 blog post.

Norwegian Escape Live Blog Day 3 - Our Sea Day in Falmouth, Jamaica

I went up to the Garden Cafe buffet, picked out some of SP’s favorites plus some chocolate milk and peach yogurt for myself, and brought SP some breakfast in bed... read more
