Back now from our seven day cruise on the Norwegian Sun, and traveling without internet so I’m going to post “daily updates” now that we are back …
Cruise day one had us driving to Tampa and boarding the ship – our first proper view of it is from the parking garage opposite:
To maximize our enjoyment, we booked a premium suite which turns out to be located right above the bridge – we’ll have great views over the next week; it’s arrowed in the picture above.
We get to our suite while the ship is still in port at Tampa, but the view is good anyway; inside, our suite has three or four rooms; the first has comfortable seating with TV, as well as a dining area, bar, coffee maker; the second room of the suite has a king bed, very comfortable! There’s also a separate closet area, and through that is the bathroom suite with jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and his & hers vanities!
As evening came, we left Tampa and headed out to the Gulf, traveling under the spectacular Skyway bridge at St Petersburg, and enjoying the view from our balcony, we had our first sunset-at-sea to end our day:
