We last did Bermuda on the NCL Crown in the Owner's Suite (Thanx for
bringing it up ... makes pleasant memories return) ... But that ship
stopped at St George and Hamilton ... which is the best way to do
Bermuda ... To me the ports are important ... now they do the
Dockyards which isn't the same ...
A pleasant voyage on a small ship not built for freestyle ... I
believe it's the Dawn doing that now?? Nice ship ... pleasant sea days
when we sailed her on a different voyage ... newer and bigger than the
Crown and better suited for freestyle ...
We had a dine around option that allowed us to eat in various
restaurants in Bermuda ... If they offer that again ....take it ...

The Bermuda Dining option was discontinued this year... restaurants
weren't satisfied with the amount NCL was paying them.

It seems that a cruise with stops at St George and Hamilton
is tough to find. From the Dockyards, the frequent ferries made
visits to the two ports very easy and enjoyable.
