  1. Thanks
    StayFrosty got a reaction from Matt in hotels at or near port liberty   
    For Amtrak stops you have two main options: Newark Penn Station and New York Penn Station (confusing I know, they were both owned at one time by the Pennsylvania Railroad).  If you want to stay in Manhattan and do that thing before the cruise get off at New York Penn Station.  If you want to avoid all of that, get off at Newark.  I would recommend hotels by the airport/Elizabeth or in Jersey City.  Jersey City also has the advantage of being able to take the PATH train to Manhattan for cheap and nice views of the NY skyline.  I made a little map to help.  Have fun and I am super jealous.

    The water slides and tower are all prefab. It will go up very quickly. Once the foundations are ready (which they obviously are) the rest is easy.

    I was watching LovetoCruise’s scope for Coco Cay and she said that she was surprised how small it appeared. Made me wonder which is bigger.  So here are two screenshots from Google Maps that are at the same scale. 
    Coco Cay

    Labadie

     
    Coco Cay is significantly bigger then Labadie in physical area but the developed area is slightly smaller. This is part of the reason I loved Coco Cay.  If you kept walking you would eventually leave the rest of the visitors behind and have your own little slice of paradise. Once the “Perfect Day” expansion is complete, the developed area on Coco Cay will be significantly larger than Labadie 
    So why does Coco Cay seem smaller.  It is an optical illusion. Coco Cay is an island and flat while Labadie is a peninsula and has more varied geography. 
    While I know I will love the new Coco Cay in its own way, part of me is going to miss the undeveloped nature of what it used to be.
