Good Morning. We’re docking in Coxen Hole, Roatan today. I’m going to the Gumbalimba Animal Reserve & Sanctuary.

This is standing in front of my door. That is the entrance to the studio lounge straight ahead.

on
July 25, 2025

In Roatan, I normally use the free beach when I’m with Carnival. Since we aren’t going to be in the Carnival port this time, I’m using this opportunity to do something different. I booked Gumbalimba Preserve & Animal Sanctuary. That’s an $85 tour that I paid $35 for after…

Good morning! Today we’re going to be at Harvest Caye in Belize. That’s one of Norwegian’s private islands. I’m used to tendering in Belize so this will be a nice change.
At 7:57 a room has an alarm going off that the entire hallway can hear. Not my hallway but…

Prima: Costa Maya

on
July 11, 2025

Good morning! I slept 7 hours then couldn’t get back to sleep. It was nice and quiet in the room though.
I’m pretty sure that broken display in my room also controls the temperature. Fortunately it’s been nice and cool in here so I haven’t had to worry about it.

Here…

Prima: Day 2

on
July 7, 2025

Good morning! I slept 8 hours. It was nice and quiet with no movement. 
The one thing I miss about the Encore room is the virtual window. But here you can still turn your TV into one using the ship cams.

I get that they made the virtual window into a…

Prima: Day 1

on
July 4, 2025

I just boarded Norwegian Prima in Galveston, Texas. They have a sign showing you where all of the muster stations are located. I immediately checked in at my mine in the atrium.

The atrium on this ship is definitely fancier than the older Norwegian ships.

I need to find a quiet…
