Arzeena

@Luckynana Maryanne, when you come down to Naples in the winter, do you have any cruises booked on Royal or Celebrity from Florida during your stay here? I hope you do and I hope we see you on one!

@Sea Dog Greg happy to hear you are feeling better today after your episode. I can imagine how worried Linda must have been. Just remember to keep going bananas 😁 every day. If you think you will forget, keep a post it "Go Bananas!" on your mirror. I hope your knee is comfortable with the shots and Linda's hand is on the mend. Stay well.

Naughty piglets' time out box?😁

I don't snorkel either, but that 100 Shades of Blue water is just too gorgeous. Try Infinity Bay, stay in their pool and just stare at the water. It is very relaxing.

Happy Anniversary!

Good Luck Bonnie!

Learnt something new. Thank you.

Fire and Ice Mani and Pedi....AAAHHHHHHHHHA! Paradise! Paid $150 including gratuity with D plus discount. Diamond Plus discount was 20% for the Fire and Ice Mani and Pedi. Last week. Pre cruise Cruise Planner prices were far lower (as low as $103, for fire and ice mani and pedi) but those are on port days during port hours and so on. Go to the cruise planner and do some mock bookings to check out times available and pricing to see. I found that the evenings were quieter and almost no one in the spa. Good luck and enjoy your 1.5 hrs in heaven.😁

I agree. Thhey always cut it shirt in Tortola. When we did that with NCL before the pier was built it was such a hassle tendering and then doing anything unless you took the cruise line excursion. After the pier was built and now that the ships dock it is much better, and no tendering, but still they leave at 3 or 4 pm. The beaches are beautiful in Tortola and there are some nice restaurants walking distance to the port. My favorite spice store (Sunny Caribee) used to be there in Roadtown. Very nice painted souvenir cans containing caribbean spices, teas etc. . But the store and Sunny are no more. They have a port shopping area at the dock, usual jewelry, duty free, etc. Just one thing to keep in mind: It takes a good 45 minutes to get back from White Bay, sometimes, depending upon sea/wind conditions. Build that in the return time to be safe, if they are having you go to a "close to the dock marina" to board and not right next to the ship

Some suggestions on this thread.

😒Keep looking. Also keep looking at Royal excursions.......they may be changing vendors and something can pop up again. I will post if I come across something.

Greg. I HEAR YOU! Look up the Rebel Yell. They are another vendor and used to do private excursions. Very reliable .and cruise ship ones.

The Jimbo Farm tomatoes look delicious....very gourmet looking.😛

We just booked the Odyssey for 3/4. I came back to update. Explorer was coming up very expensive for 3/8 although I loved the ports.

April 12. I was looking at the April 1 sailing, but the dates did not work out.

Booked the Symphony for Feb. Still looking for Jan and March. Narrowed it to Explorer or Celebrity Reflection. I haven't been on the Explorer since the repositioning from NJ to Florida and the rogue wave. Don't know if it was refurbished/amped? Beyond in April. Equinox ABC Oct birthday cruise. Silhouette in Nov.

@Luckynana Maryanne have a very wonderful birthday!🥰

Love the pictures! You all look great The boys look thoroughly enjoyed and vacationed.We are doing the 4 night in September.Same ports.

I can relate to that🙃. I ordered a closet structure for my walk in and it said minimum assembly required. I then read the reviews. Cancelled that order asap!

We are back home from a wonderful cruise. As wonderful and great it is to be on a cruise, there is nothing like home. Laundry has been started. My short thoughts: The Wonder is a great ship.I am sure all Bella 2 cruisers are going to have a great time and I am looking forward to meeting everybody. I have posted pictures throughout the cruise. If anyone wants any specific info, I can help if I know the answer.

Ok. Time to vacate the cabin. It's someone else's turn in there now! Will recap later from home. I am looking forward to great times on Bella 2 with all our cc friends.

Enjoying the pictures of Amsterdam, Renee.

Feel better Andrew!

Or Royal Caribbean.

Internet on this ship is EXCELLENT. Food is good. No grumbles here. Plenty of cream, milk halfnhalf, or white liquid..😅 Real? Don't know don't care 😊 ...not the Bee!!! Shows are OK. Nothing I wrote home about. I like the types of Mamma Mia and WWRY and nothing like that here, but I am not starved of entertainment. Packing aka randomly throwing clothes in suitcase will begin this evening. I hate that part.
