Year 3 Day 347- “Living the Dream”. Saturday, 4/13/2024. Day 12 of 28-day European Vacation – day 10 of 18-night Northern Europe MSC Euribia cruise. Today is a Sea Day. We are traveling from Southampton, United Kingdom to Hamburg, Germany. We decided we needed to do some laundry on the ship. So, we sent 14 pairs of underwear and 14 pairs of socks to be washed. We were charged 45 euros. That is after a 15% discount for being diamond. Take me back to Royal Caribbean. We each get a free bag of laundry which can be stuffed on Royal’s ships. I did read today that Royal is going to cleaning your staterooms every other day. At noon we passed by Amsterdam eating the best cruise ship pizza. The temperature outside was 57 degrees Fahrenheit.
Then we headed to the casino while our Granddaughter is being confirmed. She looks like an angel.
We had dinner in the Colorado River Dining room on deck 6 aft. It was crazy busy and loud. We don’t understand why the acoustics are so bad in the buffet and this dining room. The servers were running like crazy, and they were excellent. The Greek salad was fantastic. Lasagna okay, but very mushy. Steve had sliced veal shank. He said it was good but had a lot of fat. So now we are taking to bribery to get into early seating dining. Hey, throwing Euros around helps everything. This ships restaurant employees must do a nightly dish, pot, utensil show. It is kind of loud and obnoxious to me. The first night we saw it was original and cool.
After dinner we wandered around the ship.
Here’s today’s Daily Planner, and the dinner menu.
Things to ponder today! Have to leave you thinking.
Packing Cubes – Here’s a link to today’s Amazon recommendation: https://amzn.to/49Z48ax These are the best packing cubes. I have had other less expensive ones. These are worth the little extra cost. Traveled to Europe for a month and used these. They are strong, the sizes are perfect for my needs, and they keep your items organized. I rolled my clothes and packed them tight. They seem really durable. I expect to have and use these for a long time. Also, the burgundy color is nice and rich looking.
