Thanks for the information - looks like I need my own shower gell, shampoo and conditioner and some type of cover-up (large Gator T shirt). Doing same internary as you - only on Navigator April 14. Sure will miss my HAL, Celebrity and Princess wine!!! Looking for anything else I need to know.

It's been my experience that the Shampoo in the showers is only shampoo, I made the mistake of not taking conditioner, and the "general store" on board didn't even have any, thank to a CC friend, she gave me a large cup full to get me though the 5 or 6 days, with the wind i thought i was going to pull may hair out, conditioner is a must.

To the guy who looks for the large bathroom, interesting find, I also found that many times the showers in the spa/gym area are HUGE too, Usually in the changing/steam room FREE area. It's Nice to take one where I can actually not touch the walls while trying to keep the leg bristle at a minimum. :eek:

te tour was thu Island Marketing Ltd, just google Coral World St Thomas and the site is under the Ultimate St Thomas island tour with Coral World.

we thoughorly enjoyed it, and the DH dropped his cell phone in the stingray tank too, real fun day. :D

FYI, For those looking for deck plans, If you can wait until you board, we got a lovely pocket size map (folded many different ways) of the Mariner (this was on our 1st cruise back in 2005), But when we went on her a month ago i actually remembered to bring it with me, as it was a great resource. Go to the customer service desk and ask if they have a map of the ship, i think most have this very helpful tool.

Every ship is laid out differently, even if they are in the same class, but I always like to walk each floor of the ship within the first 24 hours so i can see all the hidden "secret" areas too. Plus it's good exercise. :)

Does anyone know how far away Coral World is from the port? I wanted to Snuba in St. Thomas but I found that if you go to Coral World that you can do Snuba there also and rccl doesn't offer that type of an excursion. At any rate I'm just trying to figure out how I would get there and how costly getting there woudl be. :confused:

We took a privately found tour 2 years back (reccommened by some of the CC people) that included Coral World, and it was 1/2 hour or so from the port i think, and it was is a very small place, but seemed very unknown and very personal tour when we arrived. I'll try to find more info on the tour company for you.

Note to self: Don't sit next to ORANGEinINDY...:p;):D

We'll set him in a corner, and I guess I'll have to sit next to him.:D
