Thanks. I forgot that the Solarium was open. I think I'll leave the swim suit in my suitcase.

Tomorrow we are departing on the EOS (excited, but still packing :p). We were thinking about bringing our swim suits in our carry on bags so we can hang out in the Solarium. Will the Solarium be too cold for that?

:eek: Has anyone taken this RCI tour? Am I the only one who thinks a canopy tour at night in the rain forest might be a little scary?

You are absolutley right. In the US, because cruising the Caribbean appeals to families and families cruise when there kids are not is school, summer is peak season, not winter. Summer Caribbean cruise fares more than double compared to winter.

I agree about summer cruising options. At this point in my life, I'm cruising for sun in the fun, not enrichment so I prefer the Caribbean destinations. I also find SJU airfare cost prohibitive so that limits my choises to Oasis, Allure & Freedom. Last year I cruised Freedom for the same dates I'm currently shopping for $1,000 less than they are now. I know the economy has supposedly improved some, but my economy has not improved that much! I prefer the Royal product over Carnival, however I'm not willing to pay that much more for it. Right now, it's looking like I will be cruising Carnival this summer.
