Creator's Key Takeaways

I just want some money back because this is a family ocean view room. It does not cost the same as a family interior.

It's a beautiful ship, but it is hard to navigate.

We are on some rocky water right now, guys. So, I understand that cover on the window.

Everything so far is delicious.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Register all children at Splash Academy in one spot, even if they are in different age groups.
On embarkation day, use stairs instead of elevators if your room is on a walkable deck.
For specialty dining, book in person on the ship if the app doesn't allow pre-cruise booking.

YouTube Video Description

In this vlog, our family of four board the Norwegian Aqua for a 5-day cruise from New York City to King’s Wharf, Bermuda with an overnight stay. As usual, our embarkation day is slower than our more active days at sea an in port because I am not only recording, but also cleaning and unpacking, so that we can be comfortable in our vacation home on the ocean! Get a sneak peek at the Norwegian Aqua’s Mandara Spa, youth clubs, available dining options at Indulge Food Hall and The Commodore Room, and hear our first impressions of the ship!
