They are normal size bottles, nothing special. My oldest didn't care for the taste of them last week on Wonder but I didn't notice any bad taste

3 day, 2hours, 53 minutes until our boarding time Food I'm looking forward to Mason Jar brunch Wonderland - experience of it more so than the food since im a notoriously picky eater who doesn't like to experiment at all Giovanni's pizza Playmakers burgers and wings and dessert and well everything Perfect Day over water cabana filet mignon Perfect Day chicken sandwich and mozzarella sticks Park Cafe roast beef sandwich

The way I read this is that there are no actual photos of the ports themselves included in the package. I'm assuming that photos taken at the port by official Royal Caribbean photographers should be included. The following are not included in photo packages: Photos of others in your party not traveling in your stateroom; Group, Wedding, Quinces, Private Studio photography and other special occasion photography; Specialty Dining photography; generic photos of the ship, characters, ports of call, etc.; any special printing or retouching requests.

So after some self deliberation on whether or not I wanted to do a live blog for our sailing, well here we are Has been a long road since our last sailing on Harmony back in 2018, and what initially started out as a 2020 sailing on Symphony that we postponed due to covid, then rebooked for a Harmony sailing for 2022 and then moved to a Harmony sailing for 2023 which then got repositioned and turned into this Wonder sailing, which in the end works out perfect since we get to cruise with another group of friends in 2023 that wouldn't have with our 2022 sailing and on the newest ship, win win! Link below to that live blog if anyone is interested A couple tidbits for our sailing 11 of us total in our group with 3 first time cruisers Booked a boardwalk balcony room for my wife and i and our kids, deck 10 and last room so we'll have a pretty sweet view of aqua theatre Stops and the excursions we have booked St Maarten - booked a snorkel tour with Captain Alan's boat charters St Thomas - booked shop, see and splash tour with Godfrey tours Cococay - have an over water cabana booked and super excited for this one Ready to get the show on the road and will post as much as time and the internet speeds will allow

I think with Cococay, it doesn't help that Liberty will be there the same day that we are so that is probably why most of that is booked up (and they get a 3 hour head start on us getting there . . . .booo ). I see some availability of rooms on our sailing so hard to say how full the boat will be. Comedy show im not shocked it sold out pretty quick with the small size of the venue it is in.

Does Reef Safe Sunscreen? = Biodegradable Sunscreen
Hockeyman55 replied to DublinFC's topic in Shore Excursions
Good topic, I had the same concerns when I saw the same warnings for our snorkel excursion. I was looking at the Sun Bum sunscreen on Amazon, anyone have any input on that brand? -
Woohoo . .Cococay Cabana buddies Sounds like a very similar scenario that we have with @derek burgan with 11 of us total in the group and with 3 first time cruisers. Been scouring the internet reading reviews, cruise compasses and watching every video we can find. Looking forward to the next milestone of online check in.

How far of a drive is this from the port? Debating on if we will have time to check this out after our 4 hour snorkel excursion.

Wonder of the Seas Rooms 11325, 11327, 11329
Hockeyman55 replied to FloridaMac's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We stayed one floor lower on Harmony 10327 and had great views. Going on Wonder in April and was able to get opposite side 10729. I posted some photos on this thread if you want an idea of the view from deck 10 similar area -
Deck 9 or 11 for Boardwalk balcony...very last room?
Hockeyman55 replied to ScottD's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We stayed on deck 10 in the second to last room on Harmony back in 2018 and had a really great views, room 10327, had minor slide blocking a tiny portion but was able to see the show without any issue. Elevator walk isn't ideal but have had much worse as some hotels, besides, we enjoy being able to watch the show and have a back side water view so the elevator location isn't a deal breaker for us. Last photo has a good view if you are close to the center of the balcony but if I moved all the way over it was even better. We sail on the Wonder in late April and was able to snag the last room on the opposite side this time so we are excited about that. Room 10729 -
90 days to go Wonder of the Seas - April 23rd

I used a GoPro when we visited back in 2018, I used a head mount so I was able to move my head and look around if needed. With the wrist or the chest mount you are limited to where the camera is pointed

We are sailing on Wonder in April and here was our plan for those two islands St Marteen my wife and kids wanted to snorkel with sea turtle so we booked a 4 hour snorkeling tour with this company https://www.captainalan.com/challenge/index.htm $80 plus $12 for transportation we thought was reasonable. Plus it gives us some time to explore and shop before all aboard. St Thomas we booked the 6 hour tour https://www.godfreytours.com/ $40 was more than reasonable, gives us shopping time, sightseeing tour and a stop at the beach so a little bit of everything all in one
-
Currently booked for a trip on Wonder in April of 2023 and has a stop in St Thomas and was wondering if anyone has any input on what might be the best excursions/locations for seeing turtles while snorkeling during our stop in St Thomas? We are open for booking excursion through 3rd party or RC

We did the buggy ride a few months ago and it was so much fun. Warning though, if you have any sort of back or neck issues do not ride on them. It is rough bumpy ride and a blast if your able to handle the physical part of it
