We've stopped in twice, never ended up actually booking, but we did as you mentioned, just walk by to see how busy they are. We caught them during a lull in "clients", so we were in and out, no line to wait in.

As someone who doesn't drink wine it won't bother me, but I think they should've kept the fee away. Wasn't it $25 before? $15 is better if that was case.

We went in Oct, and being from Florida it was quite cold. I wore pants the whole time (I hate wearing pants, I'm a shorts and flip flops guy). At the same time, I loved the weather, great change from the heat and humidity.

Not sure about shipping things home from the ship, but you might be able set up a pick up with UPS. They could pick it up from the hotel you end up choosing (it would have to be packed and labeled/already paid for. The drivers don't carry shipping supplies or payment options).

My guess is because the RCI website is so terrible (it needs to wear a mood ring so we know how it's feeling at any particular moment). I would suggest trying again (and again), calling, or having your TA do it.

They both have rock climbing walls...So I'll take either.

"hundo", can I steal that word/collection of letters?

It took me a second, but then I started laughing ?

Speaking of the in-line track, I'm waiting for RC to start adding 90's parties onboard, along with the 70's and 80's (or instead of).

No help for me. But, thank you Matt for sharing!

True that.

I did the same thing. My agent told me she gets more perks/pay/etc if she does the entire booking, versus a transfer. So, since we couldn't do the transfer anyway, she just started over for me, and I cancelled my original. Now, I ended up paying a little more for the one she booked, but it wasn't enough to make me not want to do it. She was stoked for the business (she's new to being a TA) and gave me the same OBC that RC was offering so I'm happy she can deal with everything now.

Laughing pretty hard right now. My friends and I spent more time coming up with band, song, and album names than actually writing songs. Needless to say I never quit my day job.

Should be seeing lifeguards fleet wide very soon apparently. It was mentioned a month or two ago as a new SOP.

I haven't heard of a deposit for cash. You can't put more than $500 cash into your ship account (wondering if that's what they meant with $500per room). Maybe $500, then add to it if you spend it all. Not sure. Used our RC credit card last time, much easier.

Terminal 1 has parking right there. Follow the signs. 5-10min to the front door once parked. Not sure the cost.

I just googled something along the lines of "chartered cruises for 2018" to make sure my booking was not chartered. I was surprised how many charters there are. Mine was in the clear last time I checked.

G.I. Joe!

Hmm...I'm on the low end then. I don't think we've tipped more than $5. I think we gave $10 to the tip jar once for the 3 guides to split.

My only guess for the vagueness of the program is the less info they give, the fewer people they have to give discounts to. If people knew the minimum amount to gamble to be in the club and get discounts then they'd only gamble that amount and call it a night. Who knows. Does that make any sense? It made sense in my head, but I've only had half my coffee this morning.

The water is bluer on the other side!

Nassau: Snorkeling. Chocolate factory. A friend of mine rented a scooter/moped and rode all over the island. Coco Cay: First time we did the water park, and I practiced my snorkeling for Nassau. Second time we did some snorkeling, then I went Geocaching while my wife and her friends tanned. I loved hiking to the far end of the island.

I agree with the ZBB postings. Knee Deep, and Where the Boat Leaves From are the two big ones for me. And of course Mr. Buffett.

"Mention that slop hole again and I walk". (any Just Go With It fans?)

Carly B was CD on Serenade last Oct, she was good. Definitely more mellow with the quest game vs the male CD on Freedom last April.
