Jillbus got a reaction from Michael A. Jr. in Tips in Southern Caribbean Cruises?
I rented a car in Aruba and visited several beaches and also made a dinner reservation at a local restaurant. Took a catmaran cruise before dinner.
LOVED Aruba. Curacao, took a bus tour that stopped for lunch and snorkeling. Curacao is hands down one of my favorite ports, so gorgeous and the snorkeling was phenomenal!

Jillbus got a reaction from WHStoneman in Seasickness / Motion sickness
Just wanted to add my two cents. Larger ships absolutely better, cabin location makes quite a difference, we take 1 Bonine in the morning, just in case, and bought sea bands to sleep with. Years ago I also have candied ginger, but was fine. We have never really had any problems except last year we had a cabin at the very back of the ship and could feel the motion of the ocean. Drink and eat enough and you will be fine! Seriously though, if you start to feel bad try a green apple!
We mostly cruise the Caribbean and have really had no problems. However, when we cruise to Alaska we really felt it, which seemed odd as it wasnt really open waters. A lot of people were quite sea sick on that one.
Anyway, I think you will be fine. Bonine and sea bands, you will be good to go!

Jillbus got a reaction from RestingBird in Favorite ship?
I love the Liberty because we got engaged on her. I am excited to sail IOS though in 27 days for the second time.
It will be the first time we have repeated a ship!

I have had a RCCL Visa for a year and half and was able to build up enough for a 7 day cruise for 2. So I guess for us it is worth it.
