My final impressions: We had a great cruise. We love cruising and nothing happened that was so bad it would prevent us from cruising again. Main Dining Room: service was VERY slow every night. Food wasn't the best but was still good. Kids: please have adventure ocean open during dinner hours. Splash Away Bay needs opened at the same time as the Main pools, 11am on Port Days is too late when most smaller children are up early. (we will be putting all this in our official Freedom review). Our room steward was great and having service only once a day did not make or break our cruise. We were asked whether we preferred morning or evening service. Ask any questions you have!

We departed the ship on Friday May 12th. We did self debarkation. Windjammer opens for breakfast at 6am. Ate breakfast around 6:30 am then went back to the room to get our stuff. In line to self carry at 7:45. We were off the ship by 8:05am. We had a passport so was able to get in the facial recognition line. Seamless! I did hear that if you were in the birth certificate line it took quite a bit longer. The line did look long.

We stayed on Chill Island and had a great day. There are no freestyle machines but there is a machine with water, lemonade, and strawberry kiwi. Food is Windjammer buffet style. The stroller in this pic is a beach stroller with wider tires to push in the sand. They can randomly be found around the island. There is also a team that travels around the island if you don't want to walk.

Night #3 was Caribbean Night in the Main Dining Room. Finally remembered to get some food pictures! I had the Coconut Shrimp. They were not jumbo ship nor could I taste any coconut. Basically tasted like fried shrimp. Definitely edible but no coconut taste at all. My main course was the Roasted Caribbean Chicken. Plate had 2 thighs and was very good. No complaints. For dessert had the Pineapple Sunshine Cake. Very good. Would get again.
