Santorini: Romantic, Charming, Iconic
This is a timely article about Santorini. The island is so beautiful and I had an amazing time on my recent visit. Given my experience, I understand why this writer described the island as Romantic, Charming and Iconic. I loved seeing the views of the white buildings as well as the beautiful flowers that showed up in lots of locations on the island. You can’t miss going to Oia when you visit! You can read about my experience in the highs and lows of Norwegian Jade article.

Norwegian Viva is currently on an initial four-night sailing. The writer of the article got invited by Norwegian on the special sailing and this is a review of his experience on the first day. The experience is similar to my sailing on Prima from earlier this year and the report about the canceled Beetlejuice performance matched the article earlier this week. The room that this writer got assigned is large and looks amazing.
This was my experience sailing on Prima earlier this year.
