5 Things Families will Love about the Norwegian Getaway

Mama Munchkin — Mon, 27 Jun 2016 17:41:14 +0000

I remember taking our first cruise when the kids were young. I was totally freaked out that they were going to go overboard or get sea sick. Thinking about it now actually makes me laugh. As cruising is one of our favorite ways to travel with the kids. And, probably one of the easiest and […]

5 Super Simple Ways to Avoid Gaining Weight on a Cruise

Mama Munchkin — Wed, 22 Jun 2016 17:35:01 +0000

Cruising is one of my favorite ways to travel with kids. So, I was thrilled when my husband told me he booked a 7 night cruise to Belize, Honduras, Costa Maya and Cozumel on the Norwegian Getaway. However, with so many temptations on board I knew it would be difficult to stick to my normal healthy diet. […]

We knew the cruise was coming to an end… and so was our European Extravaganza so we were trying to soak up every last minute. Our last port was in Naples, Italy and we had planned to visit the island of Capri. I was so glad we did because Capri was the perfect place for […]

Travelogue Day 15 & 16- Barcelona and Day at Sea

Mama Munchkin — Thu, 09 Jul 2015 02:27:55 +0000

We enjoyed a delicious buffet breakfast on the boat on our 15th day of vacay. I keep meaning to mention that I have been loving the fact that NCL offers multiple omelet bar stations at the buffet EVERY morning. It’s the perfect healthy way to start my day and there’s never that long of a […]

Travelogue Day 13 & 14- Cannes and Palma Majorca

Mama Munchkin — Fri, 03 Jul 2015 16:45:52 +0000

Cannes and Palma Majorca were both pretty chill days. We had planned zero excursions and pretty much just winged it both times. Cannes in a tender port which we have done on other cruises the only thing that we found odd was that NCL uses their own rescue boats for tender vs. other cruise lines […]

Travelogue Day 12- Livorno & Shore Excursions in Italy

Mama Munchkin — Fri, 03 Jul 2015 03:13:13 +0000

Day 12 was our first shore excursion and it couldn’t have gone smoother. Every other time we have cruised we have booked our excursions straight through the cruise line. However, this time we mixed it up and booked all of our shore excursions through private companies and I am so glad we did. Not only […]

Mama Munchkin — Thu, 02 Jul 2015 03:26:05 +0000

Cruise Time!!! WooHoo… I love a cruise. This was actually our first time with Norwegian Cruise Line. We have been on Disney multiple times (LOVED) and Carnival (never again) so we were excited (and a little nervous) to try NCL. The ships itinerary was: Rome (Civitavecchia) -> Florence (Liverno) -> Cannes -> Palma Majorca -> […]
