Aloha everyone!

 

Today we departed Honolulu ten minutes early kicking off my last regular week till my “Aloha bon voyage” week.  I figure its about time to spill the beans on the first part of my vacation and project.  I can’t say anything about part two yet but I bought a new suit for it so its going to be great!! J

 

As you know I finish my rotation on April 12th.  I fly home and 16 hours later I will be boarding a flight to New York then on to Athens then Thira Santorini.  Once I arrive I will get on the Norwegian Jade to experience and tell you everything about freestyle 2.0.  The Jade just left drydock and is the first ship to have the full 2.0 upgrades.  Each day I will talk about a different topic from the new menus, restaurants, entertainment, room perks to the welcome aboard gifts!  I will spend about 8 days on the ship so I have plenty of time to try everything out and report it to you.  I’m very excited about this trip and I know a lot of people have questions about 2.0 so from now till the 15th of April email me any question you might have about the Norwegian Jade or Freestyle 2.0 and I will find the answer once I get to the ship and will give you the answer.  I have created a email address just for this and its

The next two weeks I will just be getting excited for this trip so I can’t wait till vacation! 

 

I will talk about part 2 of this trip from the Jade.  My entire life I have been obsessed with the cruise line industry/ocean liners so this part 2 is a serious dream come true that I never thought I would be able to partake it. 

 

One last quick note.  This website has cost me a few thousand dollars to run over the past 8 months and a few have asked if they can donate to help cover the costs so I have created a paypal account to help fund the website.  The account email is poajames@gmail.com.  Thanks to everyone who has given me their support in my website and cruise critic work emotionally or financially.  I really appreciate it.
