We are halfway through our seven-day eastern Caribbean cruise on MSC Seaside and day four sees us docked in St. Maarten – an island that looks beautiful from afar but up close, well… hang on for a bit more and you’ll see for yourself. Our ship arrived a little before…
Day 3 was another sea day on the MSC Seaside as we sailed towards St. Maarten, our first port of call. Once again the weather was great, although a tad bit windy, and there were a few very brief showers along the way but nothing more than that. According to…
Day 2 onboard MSC Seaside, the ship that “follows the sun,” finds us spending the day at sea en route to our first port of call, St. Maarten. So far the weather has been great, the sea calm, and the MSC Yacht Club is worth every penny. [caption id="attachment_11670" align="aligncenter"…
