Rome to Athens – Journey to the Aegean – Day 2 – Civitavecchia – Pics Part 1!

Wed July 31,  2024

Hi Gang! The word of the day is WOW! That’s what we kept saying when we saw each area of this glorious ship. I mean hands down it is one of most luxurious ships we’ve ever been on (but to be fair, the Explora Journey’s ship was pretty darn close but that was 6 months ago!). Our room is fabulous with tons of storage space and a comfy king size bed that looks out over the large deck area. I know we’re really going to enjoy this ship! 

The embarkation process was smooth as silk. We walked 2 minutes from the hotel to the free shuttle bus that took us right to the ship. Dropped our luggage and was on the ship in 15 mins. We walked the entire ship and took a ton of pictures and then had a really nice lunch. This ship even has a “cold room” which with the highs the next few weeks in the 90’s, I can’t wait to try out!

Got into our room around 2:30 and got unpacked and chilled for a while before we caught a little bit of the sail away party. I’ll just share a bunch of pictures now and give another update after dinner tonight. I can almost bet what we’ll both get for dinner tonight… LOBSTER!!! Lol. Hope everyone’s having a great Hump Day!
