Serenade Of the Seas has Jeffery Arpin as Cruise Director now.  He had been on Harmony before his break. 

We were on the same cruise with Cheryl (counsdr). I thought I would add a few things. If you like Margaritas, each afternoon from 4 -7:30 the On-Air Bar (by the ice rink) had buy one get one free Margaritas on the rocks (not frozen) for $12 total plus gratuity. At the other bars a glass of Chardonnay $7, $6 for beer in an aluminum can, Bloody Mary for $12, Yellow Bird (the drink of the day for $10.

We only went to the Main Dining room 5 nights. All nights but one had shrimp cocktail on the menu. The day it was not on the menu we asked for it and they said they did not have any available that night.

Our son did not like some of the appetizers so our waiter brought him the "secret" fresh fruit plate which he got every night after.

We were supposed to be at CocoCay until 4:30 PM but had to leave at 2:30 and we still got into St. Thomas about an hour late at 1PM instead of 12 but were into the strong headwinds that Cheryl talked about.

I saw an officer toward the end of the cruise and asked about the azipod issue. He said it was repaired while we were in port at St. Maarten and everything was working fine now. We were still only cruising at 21.7 knots on the trip back to the port but that got us back on time and was probably the calculated speed needed for that leg.
