I thought it was around $5 plus tip.

I don't know the costs of non-alcoholic drinks, but were you referring to a rum-free version of a pina colada?  If not, I have some news for you...

If you can get the Refreshment package at $18/day, it is well worth it.  Between the bottles of water, specialty coffee, and non-alcoholic drinks, it does not take a whole lot to break even.

Don't forget the fresh-squeezed orange juice! If you're an OJ drinker at breakfast time, this is far better than the regular stuff they offer. I had the Deluxe package and my wife had the Refreshment Package, and this was one of our go-tos every morning.

I am not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I'm pretty sure the sun only sets once a day....?

I always book late seating for dinner. At home, I consider it late if we eat past 6pm, but on a cruise ship late seating is a great idea.  
The nice thing about late seating is it frees up your afternoon much more, and you have more time to get ready for dinner (shower, change, etc).  This is especially true on port days.

No, not too late!  I 100% agree with Matt. All his points are mine also. PLUS, you get to enjoy an 4 O'clock-ish Pre-meal at a Café or sushi restaurant onboard! The TRUE Fourth Meal!!
