Went diving in Grand Turk a few years ago. Saw a pair of hammerheads. They are bottom feeders though and won't be near the surface chasing people.

I wouldn't take my bike on a carribean cruise. At almost every port I have been to, people drive like maniacs and we really don't have that much time in any port. My parents bought an Alaska ferry pass a few years ago and loved it. While the ferries are nothing like a cruise ship, you do have the freedom of staying at a port for as long as you want and you would be able to tool around for a few days and then ride to the next port and just hop on a ferry again.

1st time I went cave tubing in march of 03, water was pretty low, it was a pretty relaxing day but nothing special. 2nd time, I went to Lamani in march of 04 and it was a total blast. Yeah I realize that my post is almost identical to the one above.

We booked a 4a gty and ended up with a 4e. We found out by checking the website 70 days out. Our cruise leaves in 10 days, technically it is possible for them to change us but I think at this point, it is very unlikely.

For me the itinerary is the most important factor in my cruise selection. Whether you are on a 1986 ship or a 2004 ship, you will find a lot of diverse people, good entertainment, food and service and a very fun atmosphere. While it is true that newer ships have rock climbing walls, skating rinks etc, I am much more interested in what ports I am going to and how long do I get to stay there. If you are in PC, you can also look at the ships sailing out of New Orleans.
