21 days!!!!!

We sail Dec. 17th. I just changed my free at sea item. My travel agent called and changed it. I got an updated travel document to print with the change.

"Freebie" item question - I chose beverage package and I originally chose excursion credits for our Dec. cruise to Belize/Roatan/Mexico. We have two rooms (one balcony and one interior room), so its 50 dollars at each stop for excursion credits for the balcony room- interior room only gets one free item. We have a family of 6 - 3 teens/one 10 year old.

My husband and oldest are listed on the balcony room and the rest of us are in the interior room. I'm considering switching the excursion credit for the specialty dining. Is the specialty dining for two- or the two named on the room??? Im sure my oldest and my husband could have some nice meals together :) but I would rather it be me!

Dining question - it says 3 meals but if you only do 2 do you only pay the gratuity on those two meals? Can OBC be used for that?

Im looking at using Shore Excurisions to book excursions and not the boat. We can save over the 50 dollar credit we would get and have better choices for excursions.

Thoughts?

I wondered if the girls seem serious and not just goofing around, they would be fine too. But, my girls hate to be embarrassed. :)

On a couple ships (the last one being the Gem), I have seen youngsters who were with their parents being asked to leave the gym. These were (I'm estimating) children who were about 10 years old. My guess would be that your daughters will be fine in the gym. My assessment is that enforcement of the age rule isn't strict and, at times, appears non-existent.

 

I'm a daily gym rat.

We are booked on the Getaway in December. My daughters were doing some research and told me that you have to be 16 to go to the gym. They are both on sports teams and were hoping to work out at some point without having to get up super early to run the small track. One daughter does track so she will need to condition. At time of the cruise they will be 15 1/2. How strict are they about the gym?? Could I go with them? Should we ask? or just act like we know what we are doing? :halo:

TIA,
