Superstar Virgo goes to Kaohsiung, Taiwan (Day 3)

Image
Our third day was filled with so much excitement since it's our first time to go to Taiwan. We started with a buffet breakfast. I filmed about what the Mediterranean  buffet has to offer. Watch it here:  Check out the pictures to what what I had to fill my tummy up☺ We decide to disembark at Kaohsiung, Taiwan at exactly 10 in the morning. We are only allowed 7 hours to explore the city so we can't waste any time. Just a tip to first time cruisers, you need your access card to go in and out of the ship, or to simply go around and make use of their facilities. So make sure to have this with you at all times. Here's what my access card looks like. It was a sunny day in Kaohsiung so it was a perfect day to go around the city. The temperature was a lot colder compared to the Philippines so it was easier to go around. Again, we didn't avail of any of the shore excursions coming from the ship because it was too pricey for us. So we have to find a vehicle that would

It's the start of a new day! I woke up at 7 in the morning to get ready for Laoag, Ilocos Norte.  But we weren't at the  Mediterranean Buffet  (yes guys, this is how we roll☺)   until 9, because I think the kids enjoyed their beds so much and waking them up was a struggle for me. So here's what I had to start my day right ☺ Please don't judge because we won't eat lunch anymore so we have to fill our tummies with these food.  We stayed at the  Mediterranean Terrace  until 11 A.M., just doing our usual selfies. When we got tired of staying there, we decided to disembark at Currimao by riding a ferry.                              We didn't have a picture taken at the usual "I love Currimao" sign because it was so hot that time. Anyway, we rented a van that costs P3,500 and asked other cruisers, who arrived at almost the same time,  to join us in going around Laoag, Paoay and Currimao and just split the van rental to 8. He

So this is it! The first day of our 5 nights cruise. Let me give you an idea of how it all started. Our ship was scheduled to sail at 6 in the evening but we are asked to go to Manila Port from 3 in the afternoon. Being very excited, we went there as early as 2 p.m. Good thing that we did because the line wasn't long yet. 30 minutes or so, we were already looking for our cabin. It was such a maze doing so since the ship is huge It is expected that you'll kinda get lost inside. It was a relief to know that our luggage were waiting for us outside of our cabin. We just explored the room and check the activities stored for us during the day. They have this daily Navigator were you can check their daily schedule. After about 30 minutes of chilling inside the room, we explored the ship. Here are the places that we went to: Galaxy of the Stars, Deck 12                      The Promenade. Deck 7        Activity Center, Deck 10   Aquaswim, Deck 1
