  1. Rob, Have you tied restarting your computer? Sometimes that helps. I would not wait for the CSR to call you, keep calling them until you get satisfaction!
  2. Ooooh, toodle68, you could get banished for a post like that..... :D

    Aruba?

    Hey Matt, How far is Eagle Beach from the pier, what's the best way to get there and are lounge chairs/umbrellas available? Thanks.
  4. Was on the Jewel a couple of years ago. Incredibly beautiful and ornate ship. Lots of great art work, sculptures, etc. through the ship. I guess that's why it's called the Jewel of the Seas!
  5. Have never been on the Freedom. Did two weeks back to back last year on the Allure with both eastern and western Caribbean. Eastern Caribbean was good, western not so much. But, there is plenty to do on the Allure if you choose to stay on board while in port. As far as the entertainment, it will blow your mind. We saw the three main shows twice on the back to back and enjoyed them both times. Research the Allure on Cruise Critic to see what all is available. If you choose the Allure, book all the shows, meals, excursions, etc as early as you can on line. ope this helps.
  6. Here's a link that may help you out: http://www.shoreexcursionsgroup.com/Articles.asp?ID=143
  7. Good one Ryan for the Blue Hole, "glancing around but nothing too deep".
  8. Check this link out, they may be able to help you out and save you some money: http://www.shoreexcursionsgroup.com/
  9. I learned this the hard way on our first cruise. While underway, we tried booking some excursions, spa, etc only to find out they what we wanted was booked and that was after spending a lot of time standing in line. Now, we always book what we want 1-2 months (excursions, shows, meals, etc) before embarkation. Once onboard, the only thing we have to decide is what we want to eat! No more lines for us.
  10. I've used Park'N Go, here's the website: https://bookparkngo.com/ftlauderdale.php. $8.99 plus tax a day if you pay in advance. You drive in load your bags on the shuttle and they park you vehicle. Shuttle goes to your ship and picks you up on your return. Very safe, they're open 24/7 with lots of overhead lights. Very easy to get to and close to the ships.
  11. Our first cruise was 7 days.....and I wanted to stow away! 7 days was just not enough for us. Since that experience we now opt for the longer cruises or do two 7 day cruises back to back. Just can't get enough cruise time, I wish I lived in Florida where there are four ports to choose from.
  12. One potato, two potato, three potato, four......... :wacko:
  13. I don't think the gamblers in the casino would notice you in Prohibition costumes or your birthday suits......they only watch the cards, dice and slot machine wheels! :huh:
  14. Yes, once on board you can use your on board credit towards the purchase of a drink package, I have done this before a couple of times. No, you cannot bring any liquor purchased at the duty free shop on bard to your cabin. Security will bag it and hold until your last cruise day and it will be delivered to your room. You can, however, carry on two 750 ml bottles of wine per stateroom and carry those to your stateroom. I've done this before. Hope this helps.
  15. Well, RC could completely go in a new direction....."Orchestration of the Ocean".
  16. Safe diving and don't try to feed the barracudas.
  17. Then he should dress accordingly to accompany you in your nice dresses!
  18. I like your Pride & Joy. Been many years since I've seen that one!
  19. Hey, it's a tough job, but someone has to do it!
  20. How could you guys forget this? You can bring two 750 ml bottles of wine per cabin on board!
  21. So RCI has had the 30% off each guest with on board credit and reduced deposit on their website for well over a week. I wonder when this is going to end and they post something better (hopefully) new to entice us?
  22. Is there a Sabor on the Serenade?
  23. Yeah, but it's so nice to have coffee and a couple of croissants delivered first thing in the morning and enjoy them on your balcony in your pj's and then go someplace else. Especially on cruise days and you sleep au naturel!
  24. Don't be late! Delaying an excursion will not win you any friends.
  25. Charlotte Amalie - ST Thomas has some great jewelry shops and you can haggle the prices. If there is only one cruise ship (the one you're on) you can get some really good deals. However, if the port is full of ships, not so much.
