My mom got me a gift, Anthem of the Seas bonding experience with my daughter and my sister. We are leaving from from Southampton in April. For a first time cruiser who doesn't know a thing about the cruise life I had two questions. A) I see from the blogs that suite guests have access to a quiet area (the wings I think it is called) where they can watch the sea and relax in an uncrowded place. Is there such an outside place for non suite guests? I am from the country and a little nervous about being on a big ship with so many people. Four of us are going on a three generation female family bonding. So I think my 14 year old will love the excitement of a "Wow" ship as she will be escaping from the country! Grandma will love the two 70 and my sister will love the shopping. Basically is there a place for reticent nerds who love books and dolphins and starry nights? B) How much is the coffee in Starbucks? Is the free coffee pretty good? Thanks for your help?
