  1. I think exploring the ship is definitely going to have to cut into my sunning/do nothing time! Thanks for the info...I didn't think there was anything. Jane
  2. Does Allure have any sort of escape room... Either designated or taking over another space? Jane
  3. @Lovetocruise2002 have an amazing trip!!! I loved freedom class, but haven't been on Oasis class yet (March here I come!). I think the break will be awesome and you will go back to school in much better shape. I just keep telling myself.... Spring break... Spring break... Spring break! Anyway, can't wait to enjoy your trip with you! Thanks for blogging! Jane
  4. So is Chicago!!! Which is why we are yolo booked for spring break! Jane
  5. I have found it to be totally hit or miss on my 4 cruises. What I usually do is grab a glass of ? at vintages on my way to the mdr and order my refill before I finish it. Then it usually times out ok. Jane
  6. Thank you!! All good info to have!!! Jane
  7. I blame my stupid auto correct that never figures out what I'm trying to say lol! Jane
  8. and I only need to buy a gazillion lottery tickets and win to afford it!!!!! ? Jane
  9. I do want to add too that i have done chef's table twice and both times it was absolutely amazing. One time we had the drink pkg and i felt a bit guilty spending so much but the food and pairings were incredible. Do it at least once! Jane
  10. We are planning on taking my 16 year old vegetarian on allure in march...hoping we can ask for a pasta dishes. Even the apps don't have a ton of vegetarian options. We did the bogo so it was worth changing. I will try andrea remember to post about our experience! Jane
  11. I was looking at the drink pkg for our 12 day vision greek/med cruise and i just couldn't pay it. We have 4 sea day's and 7 port day's. I hadn't even considered the buy late on the ship idea because I'm so indoctrinated on the buy sale cruise lanner. How late in the cruise do they sell the drink pkg? I'm wondering because our first sea day isn't even until day 5. With florence and Rome day's 3 and 4, we won't even be on the ship at all. I'm also wondering about the drink card...does it show up on European cruises or is it usually just a Caribbean thing? Jane
  12. You are awesome @Bobbieajd!!! Thank you so much for the teen compass!!! That will help with some decisions for sure... Though simply meeting someone to hang will impact too!!! Thanks again! What has been your favorite thing on allure so far? Jane
  13. Yeah...we will make Platinum on our next cruise and I keep telling myself jumping to emerald IS NOT a good reason to book a gazillion cruises in the next year! Diamond is a very very very long way away! Jane
  14. Thanks so much for the sabor menu...we are getting the BOGO and I think this will be night one! Jane
  15. I would love the sabor menu and the teen compass. Enjoyed reading so far... Good to know about the text messages and the poor layout of windjammer! Can't wait to try park Cafe and with the vegetarian 16 year old I am excited about the grilled cheese!!! Thanks so much for checking in! Jane
  16. We loved the dolphin experience in Cozumel and they did talk alot about dolphin care, etc. It seemed humane but I have to say I didn't investigate a ton. Jane
  17. Ok...so i had a grasp on which were the better Downtown hotels, and @Matt helped with that. However when asked my 15 year old said she'd rather spend the pre-cruise day at the beach so i assume we should look at south beach hotels. They all kinda seem great online. Anyone have any personal opinions? Jane
  18. So glad you booked Jane!!! Have a wonderful trip ?. Jane
  19. I could wait but we are going the end of march and I'm assuming it will be packed! If we get a better free seat, then we can just give up the shells and be no worse off than if we used them. Jane
  20. The shade us what concerns me. My husband hates the sun and is all about the shade. I just don't think I can chance the lucking out on free chairs in the shade. Can we have the chairs in adrenaline beach and walk over to Columbus cove to swim? I'm really not having a good grasp on how big labadee is! I will definitely take the point about beach shoes being a must. Jane
  21. I'm seconding this post. Sharla has been amazing. She consistently checks on sales, alerts me to important deadlines and when we had a family emergency and had to race home from Paris, she handled all the airline changes. She gets back to me promptly by email when I have questions. I'm nothing but thrilled! Jane
  22. We loved cruising adventure out of San Juan. It was my husband's first cruise and exploring Sam Juan the couple days before the cruise was amazing. Loved El Morro and old San Juan. We did cruise before the hurricane damage but I would definitely go back and looking forward to having San Juan as a port stop in March on allure. Jane
  23. I wish I'd added my other 2 kids to our Europe trip this summer. We didn't know what their job situations would be and now it looks like they could have come, but we are in the ultra spacious family that we booked a year ago and to change now would be insane. Jane
  24. I got an email today and managed to book for my March allure at $49/day. It saved us about $100 down from $56/day. Somehow 7 days seems ok in the Caribbean but there is just no way I am going to buy for our 12 day Greek/med cruise. We have 4 sea days and I already told my husband that I'm not counting drinks those days! We would likely lose money on him for 12 days and at least 3 days we will be off the ship all day (Rome, Florence and Athens). I know the post cruise bill drill just kill me though. Jane
  25. I got some really great deals on my excursions for the Mediterranean next summer. I didn't look at the drink prices though because 12 days is just too expensive to pre-buy at any price. I wish I had decided we were definitely going on spring break allure though... Because I really would rather not pay $56 a day and I bet there were at least slight deals on that. Jane
