If there is only one ship in port there will not be crowds.

Glad to hear it. We have a group of 30 on Adventure of the Seas in June, many in the group have not been to Maho and we are looking forward to spending some time there.

Just curious, how are the crowds when there is only 1 ship in port?

Favorite thing to do: Travel with someone who has not cruised before and watch their jaw drop when they board the ship.

Tradition: Those in our group who don't require a lot of time to prepare for dinner meet at the Irish Pub, (Duck and Dog, Bull and Bear, etc.), and have a pre-dinner cocktail while we wait for those who require more dinner prep time. Gender generally plays a roll in participation of this tradition.

I just got back from my B2B onboard the Jewel of The Seas. I wanted to report back on the muster drill and escargot situation. There is only one muster drill and it is at 8 PM. There is also no escargot because of a shortage in Europe (this is what I was told by a waiter, so I'm not 100% sure if this is true). Escargot has now been replaced by what is call crab and salmon gratin that you can get as an appetizer every night. It is the same recipe as the escargot, except that there are small bites of crab and salmon where the snails are supposed to be. There is also scallop au gratin on formal night now, which replaces the escargot. It is close, but not the same.

 

My DH and I had a great time on the Jewel. If anyone has any other questions, I would be happy to answer them.

Looking forward to being there in about 10 days. How was the weather and water temps?

This is a great thread ! We will try our first aft in Nov, Jewel of the seas-7674:D

 

Any one have a picture they care to share ? :)

My wife and I will be in this same cabin the week before. I would send some pictures but it would be too late by then.

Have a great cruise.
