We went on NCL Gem's 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise. We had an incredible time and had way more fun than expected. The NCL Gem facilities, food and beverage, entertainment, activities, talent, and excursions were all top-notch. In this video, Erin and I give you a good review of Day 1, which is the travel and embarkation day. We share some lessons learned and provide an overview of everything we did for the day. We wanted to post these daily videos to give you a really good idea of just how much there is to do and have fun whether it's an at-sea day or in port. You get 4 total at-sea days and 6 port of call days including Georgetown, Grand Cayman, Cartagena, Columbia, the Panama Canal and Colon, Port of Gamboa, and Port of Balboa, Panama, Puerto Limon, Costa Rica, Harvest Caye, Belize, and Cozumel, Mexico. If you want to take a cruise, we highly recommend the NCL Gem and the 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise itinerary. Even at 11 days, we never got bored once, which was our fear. Don't fear it, book it, and enjoy the cruise of a lifetime!! 00:00 Introduction/Itinerary 01:32 Early Morning Travel 01:57 Bonus Tip #1: The TSA Pre-Entry Issue 03:18 Bonus Tip #2: NCL Free-at-Sea and Airfare 04:08 Airport Transfer to Cruise Terminal 06:06 Check-in at the Cruise Terminal 07:45 On the Gem 08:32 The Muster Drill 09:34 Garden Cafe Buffet 10:24 Leaving the Miami Cruise Terminal 11:37 Orchid Garden Asian Fusion Restaurant 12:32 Winning a Trivia Contest in the Atrium 13:35 The Welcome Show at the Stardust Theatre 13:54 The Majority Rules Game Show in the Spinnaker Lounge 15:09 Diamond Earrings Raffle and Duty-Free 16:23 The Freestyle Daily NCL Gem 11-day Panama Canal Cruise: https://youtu.be/iPyjFSIR1PM NCL Gem's Garden Cafe Buffet: https://youtu.be/UOYmNp2Z9wU NCL Gem's Awesome GLOW Party: https://youtu.be/I5TDGoxyM-A NCL Gem: Inside Cabin Cruise Ship Room Layout: https://youtu.be/Hchr546fvAQ Cruise Room Organization: Accessories You Got To Have: https://youtu.be/-IJWYBofnsI NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 1 Update - Travel and Embarkation: https://youtu.be/ExThQP0d0p0 NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 2 Update - At-Sea Day: https://youtu.be/y9gwREFhMMA NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 3 Update - Grand Cayman Island Excursion: https://youtu.be/kHt78OafozU NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 4 Update - At Sea Day: https://youtu.be/9wkIivV0blk NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 5 Update - Cartagena, Columbia Excursion Day: https://youtu.be/Sqe6ZVCTzaE The Picasso of Cartagena: https://youtu.be/e7lTs23wisw NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 6 Update - Panama Canal: https://youtu.be/Bsb7hmU5dr0 NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 7 Update - Puerto Limon, Costa Rica Excursion Day: https://youtu.be/qCXaXX9oOoo NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 8 Update - At-Sea Day: https://youtu.be/CBD0KnIRoFc NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 9 Update - Harvest Caye, Belize: https://youtu.be/Ky_nxST2d9Q NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 10 Update - Cozumel, Mexico: https://youtu.be/yMcnrBGS1mE NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 11 Update - At-Sea Day: https://youtu.be/V21AewF8Vjs #ncl #cruise #norwegiancruises #travel #travelvlog #traveling #cruising #cruiseship ************** As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
