We chose this cruise to get away from a cold state (Minnesota) on my 60th birthday (Jan. 21) and got our hot deal 90 days out (late October). Too good a price to pass up, really. My wife and I persuaded our newlywed daughter and SIL to sail with us, and they got on the Love and Marriage Game and embarrassed everyone, including the CD. More on that later.
Eight Days, with stops in St. Kitt's, Antigua, Puerto Rico and Labadee (Haiti).
First thing I tell everyone: Weather was great, we got lucky. That makes a big difference.
Sensational location for an inside cabin. First in the row inside, one floor up from the Grand Promenade. Not bumpy, but surprisingly quiet considering it's right above a music theater. Room steward was Edgar, he brought us extra pillows on request.
RCCL's private beaches. The north side was too windy, but the south side (Columbus beach) was fine. Weather was overcast but warm enough. RCCL sets up the food. Very impressed by this one.
Just walked around the old part of San Juan, did some shopping, went to Mass (local time 12:15 p.m.) at the Cathedral, got a free shot at Senor Frogs.
