Thank you again. Do you mind posting your excursion information. I would like to check into the excursion you had in Barbados as well as others.

Great start. I completely understand the Scandal interuption. We are on the Jewel in August. We booked an inside cabin can you post a few pictures. This is my first inside cabin and I want to make sure I have a good idea of what to expect. Hope to hear more soon.

I loved our visit to Sorrento as well. We purchased the lemon cream almonds and I wish I had gotten more. It was a wonderful leisurely day. I would go back In a heart beat.

I'm really enjoying your review. We will be on board in November. Can you tell me the price of the bag of beer. Have fun!

Thanks for showing the compass for today. I noticed the Blue Lagoon Beach Break NS97 excursion. That looks like the excursion the hubbs and I would want to take. Just went to book it and its not available for my November sailing. Do you guys think its a new excursion and not posted online or is it just not available for our sail date.

Sailing the Enchantment in November for the first time and the Jewel in August 2014 for the first time. Both trips will be a first time in the Bahamas and the Caribbean.

Thanks for the review. How did you find out about sandcastle hotel. My sister and I are doing this itinerary August 2014 and would like more info. Love your pictures you guys look like you had a lot of fun.

Thanks for the pics. We will be on JOS in December, our first RCCL cruise. From the picture of the restroom, it appears as there are no little corner shelfs on the mirror (as I have seen on other ships) to put toiletries on to. Is there other area to store items?

 

Thanks,

The mirrors open up to the shelves.

I'm not able to see any photos is this because in on my iPad?

I most likely will not be traveling out of the country again in the near future, so thats not a factor. I want the easiest, most reliable way of being able to use a cell phone if I need to and have my family be able to call me if they need to. The Mobal.com phone seems to have a UK # which means when my family calls us they will need to pay for an international call, is this correct? Where with Cellular Abroad I can get a US#. Also if they call me there is not charge. Can you not program numbers into a rental phone?

 

Thanks for your help!

Diane,

I just purchased a phone from Telestial. I will be using it on my trip leaving 8/8-8/21. I received a US number and a UK number. The phone cost me $29 and I prepaid for $30 worth of time. I will report back how it works. The best thing is I can use the phone with anotherr sim card if it doesnt work out.

3 days! Leaving on the Seranade.

And actually, not sure when Monk looked up that price or where - the cruise leaving on Aug 12 is showing $3218 for two in a balcony. For 7 nights.

Actually, it's possible to do it for less. We got our E2 balcony for $1299 pp when RCI ran the balcony guarantee on a 12 night Greek/mediterranean. Our flights were $1129 each from choice air. You don't have to spend a lot on excursions either. Many of the people on our roll call are sharing private excursions. It takes a bit of research and planning, but very possible.

Sherri,

Thank you for the wonderful review. We leave for the Serenade In just 4 days. Looking at your pictures, I'm so excited! I feel like this is my second time on my cruise.

Thank you for you review and beautiful pictures. I especially love the ones taken in the market. Where is this market located. We are taking the city tour with the cruise line and hope this is near one of our stops.

I'm captivated by your review. I will be on the Serenade in August and your review is making me more excited. Thanks for the fantastic pictures and your attention to detail.
