Without a doubt the best pictures I've seen on CC. I've loved them all! Great review, and timely since we leave in a month. Thanks again.

THANK YOU so much!! I found out the best way to take a good picture is to take about 1000 and maybe you get a few good ones!

Have a great time on your cruise

Congrats to your son, that sounds like quite an honor! :) Thanks for the review, photos are just amazing!!! I am hoping to try Oasis the next year and now the waiting to book is going to be torture. :o

He is really excited about his internship! Thanks for reading the review and posting. You will love the Oasis! This was our 3rd time on an Oasis class ship and there are still things I did not get to do on the ship, there is so many activities.

a few more pictures..

So that's about all for this review. I hope you enjoyed the review and got some information to help you plan or want to book a cruise on the Oasis of the Seas!!

DAY 7 At Sea

What?!? I though this review was over… well I am sorry it took so long for me to post the final day on this wonderful cruise. Had so much stuff going on, …yada…yada…yada…blah…blah….blah… OK so now you know why, so here goes..

Tip for today: Really read over the Compass!. I just noticed when looking at day seven just now that there was a Backstage tour of the of the Opal theater!. I would have loved to do that, but did not notice it when I just glanced at the Compass when I was on board. And use “The Planner” which is a day by day schedule of things going on the Oasis, but not as detailed as the daily Compass.

It’s a SALE, SALE, SALE, day on day 7.

Almost every retail store, OK EVERY RETAIL store has a sale on day 7. Some of the stores even have the sign that I always look for when I am shopping in my favorite stores, 50-75% OFF!. The Royal Promenade looked like Sawgrass Outlet Mall, here in South Florida, on day seven. There are T-shirts for $10, Invicta, Citizen, Casio, Fossil watches for up to 70% off, you name it, it was on sale. So I rushed up to the future cruise sales office to see if that was 50% off, but I am sorry to say, no it was not, oh well. Some of the sales did not start until 1 PM, so there were lines outside of the stores waiting for the sale to begin, did you see me waiting in one of them?

SO today I did some shopping, walking around the ship one more time and did a double lunch having to finish the cruise with my two favorites, Roast Beef at Park Café, and Tutti Salad in the MDR. For dinner we once again went to 150 Central Park to enjoy the second menu. Both menus were a great experience but I liked the 1st one a little better. (sorry no food porn again).

We packed up our suitcase and left it out when we went for dinner. Used our carry-on for the last items needed for the night and the next morning. We had a nice breakfast before we left the Oasis on Saturday morning.

Some final pictures

The pics from the All Access tour were amazing as were all of your pics! Well done!

Thanks so much for your post. Glad you liked the pictures!! Sometime I get lucky taking a picture.

Thanks for posting your review. Enjoyed reading it on this Good Friday with nothing to do at work. Why do they make us come in on Fridays before a holiday? Everybody surfing the net. LOL!!

 

Now to go and find your Allure review to help me knock out this last 1 1/2 hours. LOL!!

Yes, I worked on Good Friday as well, but was a little busy. Glad I was able to keep you amused for the day!

Usually close the office for the afternoon, but had to much work to finish. Thanks for reading the review. Hope you found the Allure review

Allure 1-6-13 with pictures

I just booked the Oasis for May 24, but every Comedy Live show is booked for the whole week. Has anyone ever had luck getting in by waiting in a non-reservation line outside the theater door? If so, how early did you get into line?

you should be able to get into a show. I would get there about 30 min before show time. The let in the waiting line in 10 minutes before the show is scheduled to start.

What kind of camera do you take on cruises with you?? Love your photos. Especially the sunrise!!

Allure of the Seas in Aug :-)

Thanks so much for reading and enjoying the review, and the props on the pictures.

I use a Nikon D7100 with an 18-200 telephoto lens, no filters on any pictures except for the zoom shot and I used a Neutral Density filter (ND) to slow down the shutter speed.

BTW, I did an Allure review from our trip last year... allure 1-6-13 with pictures

You will LOVE the Allure, Enjoy your cruise!!

DUCK TOUR DUCK TOUR DUCK TOUR, very funny and informative You will see a lot of Boston. If it is raining, Kennedy Presidential Library you can take the T (subway) there. Also go to the North End for Italian food, T stop on green line at North Station. Boston is a GREAT walking town, Boston Commons, Public Garden, Public Library

Enjoy Boston!!!

Great review with some wonderful photo's, thanks for doing it.

Thanks so much. Glad you liked the review

Great review. Have sailed the Allure once' date=' but first time on Oasis this May 10. One question, who's the Cruise Director on the Oasis?

 

Thanks,[/quote']

 

Hi Croozin' nut

Love your name! Thanks for reading my review and posting. Our Cruise Director was Drew Devine

Caneguy:

 

Thank you for your wonderful review.

Where do you sign up for the ATT airtime you mentioned?

 

Go Canes!(class of 71)

 

Hi Ginopingoly,

I called ATT and told them I was on the Oasis. Got set up with ATT rep and had it set up for billing just when I was on the Oasis. Real easy.

They have it for most RCC ships

 

GO CANES!!

It is only a 10-15 min taxi ride from FLL to the port (maybe even shorter time) so you should have plenty of time I would think you can board until 4:30 to 5PM

I've never sailed this ship nor do I have plans to in the near future.....but have read the whole review today from beginning to end because it was so well done! Kudos!

SoundDawg,

WOW!! Thanks so much for reading the review and this great compliment.

The ship is wonderful maybe one day you will take a cruise on the Oasis or Allure.

Just booked Allure of the Seas for aug 3. Need any recommendations anyone has

Shows? Do you need reservations?

Any speciality restaurant a must?

Things to do in st Thomas or at Martin?

Thoughts on Drink packages?

We like to drink but were thinking of sneaking some on.

 

Thanks. Everyone on here always has great advice.

looks like you are going eastern. I did an Allure review - allure 1-6-13 with pictutes - and just came off the Oasis Eastern and did a review on Oasis. You can click on the link below and see this review. I have many pictures of the food in the specailty restaurants and review of the ports.

ENJOY YOUR CRUISE!!!

Awsome review so far. Going on FOS to St.Maarten and St Thomas in August. Can not wait, doing our honeymoon in a GS :D

Thanks so much for your post on my review and glad you are liking the review. What a great time you are going to have and congrats on getting married. My wife and I are going to celebrate our 25th next week!! Going to spend the weekend at the Ritz Carlton Key Biscayne, FL

I really want to get a GS one time. ENJOY!!

Phenomenal review and pictures! I have a million and one things I need to do -- like unpack from my cruise last week and get the laundry done, but since I very unexpectedly booked the Oasis for Nov. 29th, I find myself engrossed in CC!:rolleyes:

 

I'm obsessed with getting two spaces on the All Access tour...good to know it's available on-line before the cruise.

Hi Cindy,

glad you liked the review. When you do your pre-cruise planning, go to "onboard activities" and the All Access Tour should be listed there. Oh, and don't feel to bad about being engrossed in CC, I am also always reading threads to get ideas..

Great review!! I loved the boardwalk pics and of course all the food!!

Hi Sunlovers,

I have a Nikon D7100 and use an 18-200 lens. No filters, except a ND filter for the zoom shot in this review

Thanks for reading the review and posting.

we ate at 150 twice enjoying both menus. They made changes for my wife and our friend, they do not eat meat. I posted the menu from the first part of the week and will post the menu from the second in a few days on my review. Click on the link below. Both meals were wonderful!

Those pictures are ridiculously awesome

Thanks SpencerNY1.

I really like these and glad you liked them too.

Thanks for such a fun and fantastic review!!! We are going on the Oasis May 3 and your review has really fueled our excitement. We can hardly wait. I appreciate your review of the Ultimate Ship Tour. I have always wanted to do that. Could you please send me the name of your travel agent at gborrun at gmail dot com.

Hi Warriorprincess,

Thanks so much for the compliment on the review. The All Access tour was really fun!

I know you are going to have a great time on your cruise on the Oasis!!!

Thanks for taking us along on the tour, enjoyed the photos.

Thanks James, and thanks for following from day 1!

Yes that carousel picture is stunning. You ask that we state which photo is our favourite. They are all so good, that it's hard to pick just one.

Thanks so much!!!!

Wow! That carousel picture is incredible!! You should definitely be proud of that one.

Thanks so much, yes I got really lucky on that one!!

Awesome!

 

I've heard of this beach by the airport and added to my must-see list!

Thanks for the post and the thumbs up for the review. I know she has a boyfriend, sorry:)
