Bridge of Sighs!

 Photos of DD Michelle and her family on the 'Bridge of Sighs' on our recent June 2019 Cruise. On our MSC Seaside cruise there was a clear glass bridge at the back of the ship. You actually stood on the glass and you could look right under your feet at the ocean. The smaller photo is showing a photo of their feet looking down at the rest of the ship and the ocean. Kind of eerie at first, but you sort of get used to it. Spectacular View! :greeninlove:
