How on earth did I miss that? LOL I didn't see it and I was pretty diligent in looking at everything Deck 5 had to offer!

I tried the pizza MANY times on Freedom last week, and it was pretty darn awful most of the time. I did manage to go there once when it had come right out of the oven, and that was the closest it's come to edible. One time after closing the casino, the cheese pizza was basically rubber from top to bottom so I am guessing that had been "aging" a while... I wish there was something else open overnight, because when I'm on a cruise, I don't have a bedtime! Even if it were pre-packaged wraps or sandwiches that you could just grab from a cooler somewhere. But yeah, Sorrentos is a 1/2 star in my book at best.

I just got back on Sunday from the 2/17 8 day Eastern Caribbean on Freedom of the Seas, and we stayed at the Extended Stay Suites on 17th. What was nice is that we were able to park our car there (for extra, of course), and get a shuttle to the cruise terminal, which was right around the corner. We did, however, have to get a taxi back, as the shuttle will only take you TO the port. Hotel was nice, and fit our price range nicely.

Freedom of the Seas 2/17!

I was looking at this for my honeymoon next June! Glad to hear all of the positive feedback for this itinerary/ship!

I did a little digging, and it looks like the Caribbean region has a different provider as the official channel for the Olys. But, that's cool, I could always just DVR and ignore the real world till I get home and watch it!

Thanks for the welcome! I've been a lurker since I booked the cruise earlier last year. I appreciate your advice, I was looking forward to disconnecting from the world during the cruise, but I MUST see the skating live, so I guess Voom it is!

Hi all, I am going on the Freedom of the Seas February 17-25, and I was wondering if anyone has any inside information about whether there will be places showing the Olympics. Since the Olympics are such a big deal across the world, I was hoping there would be somewhere to watch them while enjoying my beverage package :) I am a ride or die Figure Skating fan, so I'm hoping I can catch at least those events somewhere. Maybe they will be on the state room TVs? Anyone who might have any info, please let me know. Thanks!
