Hi Laurie, I think there might be quite a few who got scared... I've read the part about dying and rushing and then the pictures followed, and my thought was "how on Earth is she able to continue with her review while her life is in danger????" Anyway, I hope you have a good and safe (!) rest of your cruise. Thank you so much for the details and pictures you share! I joined your topic because I have my cruise on Oasis from Rome on 9th May. This will be my second cruise ever, the first being also on Oasis back in 2011. Cruising as a way of spending vacations is not very popular here in Poland. My first cruise was my honeymoon, now I am bringing my children with me. This leads me to my actual question to you - as we plan to be having breakfasts in Windjammer, because it is easier for my girls to deal with buffet style, especially at breakfast - when you wrote that Windjammer was super busy did you mean that there were lines to the food isles or just many tables taken, or maybe there was a line even to get a table? As a kind of bribe for your time to give me details on Windjammer, I can offer pictures of my cats. Hope that works. Also, mushroom soup forever! Anna

Dear Experienced Cruisers I am going on a 7-night Western Mediterranean cruise in May: departing from Rome on the 9th, then Naples, after that heading to Barcelona and Palma de Mallorca and back to Italy for La Spezia and Rome. We will be having two sea days. Can anyone advise me as to the weather when at sea? What should we expect? I've tried to search the internet, but google only gave me pages with weather in coastal towns and cities. I'm aware that this much ahead of time there will be no forecast, I'm counting rather on some statistics from previous years. Thank you so much in advance! Anna P.S. I am begining to feel nervous about the cruise and our whole trip, my first (and only) time on a cruise ship being back in 2011. P.S.2. Please forgive any grammar or vocabulary mistakes. My English has not been used much recently.
