My husband and I were also on that sailing. We had a great time! We were on it last November also and I think we enjoyed it more this time around (maybe because it was 8 days vs 7 :)). We drove to Ft. Lauderdale from the Tampa Bay area Friday night and stayed at a Marriott in Weston. We had FTTF, arrived at the port by 11:00 and were on the ship by 11:30.

It was extremely rough the first couple of days. This was my 11th cruise and while in the past I’ve experienced some dizziness on the first night, this was the first time I actually felt nauseous and had to go back to my cabin. Luckily I brought some meds just in case. I took it, laid still on the bed for about 45 minutes, and all nausea disappeared. I did take one more pill the morning of the second day just to be on the safe side. The wind was so strong we avoided our balcony for the first 2 days.

We did MTD. We went down around 7 and had about a 30 minute wait each night. We’ve never asked for a specific server, we just taken first available. Last year the service in the dining room was not great. Dinner took forever. This year we were seated in Dalmacio’s section with Jonathan and Bianca on the 3rd night and requested him for the rest of our trip. All three of them were wonderful and the only long wait we had was when I ordered from the steakhouse menu. I think that takes longer than the regular menu.

We did a tour of St. Maarten with Bernard’s. Great tour and only $45pp. We didn’t have anything planned for St. Kitts but they have taxis at the port and we did an island tour for $25pp. We also booked the beach break through Island Marketing in San Juan and it was great! It’s an early morning and there was no way we could each do the 6 drinks.

11 :):)

We ordered a cake and it was delivered during dinner. They brought it out and sang "Happy Father's Day to you....". There were probably 25 cakes delivered that night...each with the same song.

Thanks so much for the update!

My daughter is on the ship with some neighbors. Do you know if the ship will be changing the itinerary tomorrow due to the tropical system near the Bahamas? I'm hoping she will call me tonight. She's having a great time and really loves the ship.

We just got off of the Conquest this morning and I don't remember seeing anything about a laundry special. I don't think I got any flyers but I could have missed it.....
