I just finished packing lol! Time to get a couple hours sleep if I can! We are not due to check-in until 1 so our shuttle will be here at 11am. 6and a half hours from now! See you at Cape Liberty everyone

Ten weeks is going to fly by, my husband and I had a vacation already booked for July 15-22nd for us and our ten yr old, prior to finding out the in-laws had plans to surprise us with this cruise so we are basically on vacation for most of July we have a week at the beach house that we rent every year in North Wildwood NJ, then we will get home and have 6 days until we leave on Oasis. I have always said I needed a vacation after my vacation, so this will be a test of that strategy moving forward hahaha!, Nothing better to help relax after the stress of returning to work after being gone for a week than leaving for another week on a cruise hahaha let's do it! Another benefit-having a great post-beach-vacation tan to look out best in our new cruise wardrobe,

Hey there! We will be on this sailing. It's a family cruise, with me and my husband and our 10 yr old son, along with my SIL and her family (husband and 2 boys, aged 7 and 4), and my MIL AND FIL, who are both RC Diamond Members and cruising veterans, having been on well over 15 various voyages, all RC ships. For the rest of us? We are ALLLL first time cruisers and are beyond excited. I have been reading every blog on here that has to do with Oasis of the seas and Perfect Day, my husband and I honeymooned in Nassau, and are looking forward to returning, leaning toward getting a day pass for our honeymoon resort, and sending our son off with Grammom and popop for that day. We are really looking forward to all of it TBH. Considering renting a waterpark cabana for our day in Cocoa Cay, as I saw that recommendation on this site and it made a lot of sense for us as we are likely to have at least five or six who are planning to do the waterpark anyway so it will be nice to have a base camp so to speak. Excited for more tips and any advice from seasoned cruisers, see you on the ship!
