Thank you. I printed it last night. We leave tomorrow!!!!

The second guest in a friend's room had to back out of the cruise at the last minute. I'm being told the ticket is not transferable so she can't bring someone else with her. Anyone have experience with this? Seems a shame that the cruise will basically pocket this fare. Any ideas?

Thanks for the review. We leave on Sunday. Can't wait to hear about onboard activities

Any one know if it is running yet? I was thinking of going there next week, but I don't want to go by bus. Thanks!

Charles 4515 - thanks so much for the photos. We definitely plan to climb the lighthouse. The views look amazing.

SBts - thanks for your response. Yes, I have read the other link every day for the past week. Definitely putting a bit of a wrinkle in my plans.

For that day I plan to get the one day pass - part economical, part convenience.

We plan to take the 7:30 am ferry to be at BAMZ by 9:00 am opening. My husband's fishing charter leaves the dockyard at 2 pm. I'm figuring he can leave BAMZ around 11:00-ish to grab a bus and make the 12 pm ferry. This should give him plenty of time to change and grab a bite to eat. It's a private fishing charter with his friends so I don't think they will leave without him [emoji12].

We definitely plan to climb the lighthouse. I want to see those amazing views.

Now, I'm wondering if we should go to the Lighthouse before shopping. Not sure I want to carry bags all the way to the top of the lighthouse - decisions, decisions!!!

Arriving on the BA April 27. On the 28th, DH and two DDs and I plan to take the ferry to Hamilton in the morning and then a bus to BAMZ. We plan to head back to Hamilton around noon so DH can head back to Dockyard to meet up with fishing charter. DDs and I plan to have lunch and shop in Hamilton.

I'm also interested in seeing Gibbs Lighthouse. How far is it by bus to the Lighthouse? I know it's a matter of opinion, but is this a worthwhile use of time? If we go should we go back to Hamilton to get a ferry back to the dockyard or should we take a bus back from the Lighthouse location?

TIA for any advice / assistance.

Charles 4515 - thank you for the clarification. You are correct, I was talking about the HBB shuttle bc I thought that was the one they were holding back and would only use if needed. Is that not the case? Will the shuttle still run as scheduled?

Sorry...one more question: is the $19 day pass the same price for adults and children?

If the HBB Special bus does not run how much will it cost to take a taxi round trip? I'm trying to determine how much more than the original $64 (4 x $16) it would actually be. Thanks!

I thought I read somewhere that they allow this on the BA as long as it's not glass. Can anyone confirm for me? Thanks.

Can you link a Visa gift card to a kids card? Thinking this could be easier than constantly adding cash and not worrying about reimbursement for unused OBC. Just another idea.

Thanks everyone and yes safety first!

If I want a lanyard for my kids room key do they punch holes in the card or does it need the clear plastic holder?

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I will look into the HogPenny but it's nice to have the food court as an option. I really like the idea of lunch al fresco at the food truck.

I'm surprised people were allowed to bring drinks into the spa. Didn't think this was allowed? I take it no one said anything?

Looking for a quick, (relatively) inexpensive lunch for my daughters (10 yo and 8 yo) and I to grab while shopping in Hamilton when hubby is on a fishing charter. Any ideas? Mainly shopping on Front and Reid Streets.

Book the pass!!!! My last cruise was with a 5 yo and 7 yo. I used the spa to recharge while they were at the club. Worth every penny especially if you don't have great weather at sea.

Thanks for the advice. I wasn't sure if it was something that needed to be arranged in advance with the ship / casino.

Does anyone know how I would go about doing this? We are traveling with 20 adults and I thought it could be a fun activity while at sea one day when the kids are at the club. Thanks!

Where would you recommend purchasing a Bermuda bag with cedar or mahogany handles?

Also, looking for unique girls clothes - something I couldn't find in the States. I already know about Marks and Spencer's and will be stopping there. Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

Are you able to put a daily limit on kids cards?

rosebud513 - Thank you for your reply. Do you know how long it takes to get back from the beach to the Dockyard?

Thanks everyone! Confirms what I was thinking.

Planning to go to the Aquarium and Zoo? Should we take the ferry to Hamilton and bus to the zoo or the St. George ferry?
