Thanks to everyone for the nice words to my family. The funeral was this afternoon and in the Jewish religion we sit Shiva for the rest of the week. This means my review might take a little longer than I expected. I am still going to post as much as I can and I want to finish it before my next cruise Nov 9.

After Gary's FANtastic rendition of 'Mickey', Esteban got up to sing "I Like Big Butts". Again, the screens in front of the stage were small and he was having trouble reading the words.

 

After Karaoke we gave Charlie (singer in the pub) another shot. But Gary went to request a song and like the previous night Charlie pretty much told him off. So, we said screw you and we left. His tip jar never filled the rest of the week. His loss not ours as we found Matt Ganim playing piano in the Schooner Bar on deck 6. He was/is GREAT!!! We ended up spending the rest of the week in the Schooner Bar with Matt.

We took more pictures in the Schooner later in the week.

DAY 4 - FALMOUTH

Today we were in Falmouth, Jamaica. Michelle and I were planning to go to Duns River Falls but she hurt her foot in Nassau and climbing the falls was now not the greatest idea. We decided to take it easy and just walk around the port area. Check out the stores and get a Jamaican patty.

 

Because we were taking it easy we decided this would be a good time to get a couples massage. We went to the Vitality spa, deck 6 forward, for 9am. Our massages were really good but quite painful. I have a lot of knots in my shoulders and upper back. Of course after the massage they try to sell you their product. "If you continue to use this product you'll feel better". "Have her rub it on". blah blah blah. I declined right away knowing they try to sell it to you. Michelle is a little nicer and even with me telling her ahead of time to decline she still hummed & hawed. They tried to sell her a smaller package and said wait in the waiting area and they'll check out if they can sell just part of the package. We talked and she now didn't want it so we just left. When we got back to the room after spending time in port, there was a message on our phone saying we didn't sign for the massage. Also they would send the product to our room. We were like What the F...?! We didn't agree to buy anything!! One of the girls called back while we were in the room and we said we didn't want the product, so they removed it from our account.

 

I forgot to take a list of prices to post here. When I'm back on the ship in 2 weeks I'll grab one to put here. Watch for that...

 

TIP 1: If you can, book a massage on a day when the ship is in port. They usually have some deals.

TIP 2: Individual massages are cheaper than a couples massage. The only difference is, with the couples massage you're in the same room. You don't talk to each other so why pay more? We were told the couples massages are more expensive because they only have 3 couples rooms.

The ship has a pretty big gym. The biggest by far that I've seen on a ship. Well... The same size as Oasis. There are lots of machines (treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, rowers) a lot of weight machines, free weights and a decent size area for classes. The gym is located in the Vitality Spa on deck 6 forward.

Through the gym you can get to the track which is on deck 5. There are stairs from the gym or you can get to it through glass doors by every elevator bank.

We walked out of the port area for about 20 minutes. Once you walk through the security area it's a completely different place. We walked up and down a few streets as we wanted to see what 'real' Jamaica was. We felt a little out of place as there weren't many tourists around. Having said that, we never felt unsafe.

This is the best information desk I've ever seen
