Norwegian Bliss Vlog: A Real Couple's 7-Day Trip
Most people think cruising on a mega-ship like the Norwegian Bliss is all about relaxation and endless luxury. But, when you put a "Planner" (Michelle) and a "Passenger" (Chris) in a 200-square-foot room for a week, reality looks a little different. Therefore, we decided to film everything—the good, the bad, and the ugly—to give you an honest look at what a 7-day NCL cruise is actually like in 2026. In this vlog, we take you inside the Norwegian Bliss as we sail from Los Angeles to the Mexican Riviera. We test out the balcony stateroom to see if it’s "Big Guy Friendly" (I’m 6'2", 300 lbs), hunt for the best food that fits both a gluten-free diet and a "toddler palate." If you are planning a cruise or just want to see if the Bliss is worth the money, this video is your real-life guide. 👇 IN THIS VIDEO: The Room: A full tour of our Balcony Stateroom. The Food: We review The Local Bar & Grill, The American Diner, and the buffet chaos. The Ship: A look at the amenities, from the Observation Lounge to the "Cruise Limbo" of boarding day. 👋 WHO ARE WE? We are Chris and Michelle. Michelle plans the trips down to the minute, and Chris... just carries the bags. We travel to find the best food, the best views, and the funniest moments, all while navigating Chris's "picky eater" habits and Michelle's dietary restrictions.
