I did that on several I really liked and also used some of the scans to create our cruise photo book.  

There will almost always be a place to lock your belongings up.  I did the parasailing on Labadee, they have lockers to rent on the island.  I actually did the zipline and parasailing.  I rented the locker for the zipline and could have kept it for the remainder of the day but I just gathered my backpack after the zipline and carried it around with me.  While on the parasailing tour, I and several others left our backpacks on the boat.  There was 8-12 people on the boat and two at any time would get on the parasail.  They had us move around the boat as two came back on two were getting ready to sail.  I actually gave my camera to the tour operator to take photos of us while we were up there.
The cruise compass will post what is required to get back on the ship (usually your sea pass and a photo ID).  If a passport is required to reboard they will let you know in the cruise compass and will be posted as you leave the gangway.  
In most cases whether you have your passport or not when going ashore is a matter of personal choice and comfort level.

Yes it is, you can find them on facebook or the web.

Great tour Chris.  Oasis was my first ship and I had the same reaction as you when I first boarded.   It was WOW, look at that, this is awesome!

I agree the included coffee is hit or miss mostly miss.  It is tolerable if you add sugar and cream or bring your own flavored creamers.  I usually get the beverage package and go out each morning to watch the sunrise from the top decks and enjoy my coffee.

There was food available at San Gervasio to purchase.

I use a local agent, I also prefer a face to face encounter but i do use email/phone to contact her mostly for an appointment.  I research cruises, airfare, hotels and rental cars and really know what I want before I talk to her (she says I'm easy to book a cruise for, as I already know what I want).  She will take what I want and check prices and availability at several sites and I pick the one I want.  Before I cruise, I meet with her to pick up all my travel documents, yes I can print them out myself but she puts everything in envelopes and organized.  That face to face also gives me the assurance that if I have a problem she will take care of it for me.  She told us the first time we used her that if anything didn't go as planned call her (she can help with cancel flights, etc.)   Some of the big box stores may offer more OBC but I don't have a lot of confidence in talking on the phone to someone I've never met.  Anyway that's just my 2 cents.

I third the holders with the steel cable; also since we arrive the day before I don't put them on till we are in the hotel that night or first thing in the morning.

The terminal is a bit chaotic in the early morning, this was our first cruise and really wasn't watching the clock closely.  We dropped the luggage to the porters sometime between 8:30-9:00 and many were still getting off the ship.  I made two passes thru only because I missed seeing the porters the first time.  After dropping the rental off, we arrived back at the terminal and there were maybe 50-100 people in line waiting for them to open the terminal doors.  Once they opened things went quickly and we had to wait for boarding to begin around 11:00.
I understand there can be some congestion/confusion early but it doesn't make any sense to run empty shuttles back to the port.  I'm doing Port Canaveral again in February and planning on dropping luggage off first and returning the rental at 9:30 and getting to the port shortly after.

The one we did was the jaguar cave tubing and jungle trek.  I believe it was supposed to be about 1/2 thru the jungle, you have to carry your own tube.  The path is mostly hard pack sand/gravel and the trek was relatively flat.  Hardest part was you will have to cross a creek/river water is 2-2 1/2 feet deep and walk down then up a flight of wooden steps.  The steps had the potential of being slippery and I think it was a bit rocky after the steps going up.  The float down the river is slow and easy.  The walk out was short.  Depending on when you get there they may feed you before or after, we ate before. Chicken, rice plate.  They have a DJ playing music and you can purchase drinks there; they also have a souvenir place.  We are middle 60"s and pretty active and didn't have any problems with it.

Was a Phantom Fixer from 77-80, loved the sound of those 2 J-79 engines.  My old CO called them "double breasted bug suckin gas guzzlers".  Nothing like an F-4 doing a take off, tucking the landing ear and then straight up with the afterburners lighting up the night sky.

Agree that cancelling and repurchasing on line is the easiest way.  Don't forget to print out your receipt.

Glad they fixed this for those that had already booked those rooms, but I have to wonder who in corporate is making these decisions in the first place.  This person or persons have no common sense, it's almost like they are trying to torpedo the company.  After the stuff hits the fan someone higher up jumps in and makes the decision to end the publicity nightmare.  Kudos for Royal for making things right but by god get it right the first time.
I wonder how they will price these rooms in the future?, to me these balconies are worthless and should be priced just above an oceanview cabin.  

I guess we are in the minority, who enjoy dressing for formal night.  I wear a dark suit and the wife wears a gown or cocktail dress on formal nights, now on other nights I wear trousers and collared dress shirt or maybe a Hawaiian style shirt and the wife wears a dress or slacks.  After diner we enjoys the shows and bars so staying dressed is not a problem for us as we treat it as a date night.  Daytime is for shirts and t-shirts.
One part of me wishes the cruise lines would enforce the dress code in the MDR; the other part of me could care less what other people are wearing.  On our last cruise one of our table mates was upset that we dressed for formal night (I wore a suit and the other two gentlemen wore ties).  He wore a short sleeved collared shirt and said we made him look bad by dressing up for dinner.

It's like choosing your favorite kid. Both are great in their own ways, just a little different.

I'd like to see videos of the various bars/clubs, entertainment and dancing spots.
