Starting boarding - I can’t even remember the time, I think around 11, able to get in room at 1. I saw someone asked on another thread, we got our sea pass card at check in. We explored some, quick lunch in suite lounge (small buffet). They offered us the Chef Table for 50% off since neither of us drink wine so are doing that Friday night. We had not pre signed up for any shore excursions, no line so we did sign up for one in Cozumel. They are playing this cute safety movie on the TV. Refreshment mugs in room. The distilled water & extension cord in room also for my CPAP. Hubby signed for thermal spa pass. I guess they only do 40 per week may be 80. I am going back out to do more exploring.

So we did MDR for dinner, we had gone earlier & found our table. Hubby had pork chop & me NY strip, both good. We did both get 75 minute body massages after dinner, manager special. Hubby went to thermal after that & I explored more! I love Central Park! And walked by Dazzles, playing great songs! Haven’t even made it yet to look at pools. Had a lot of items in cabin, letter about suite benefits, captains reception in suite lounge & some art & shopping stuff. Our Barefoot Beach wristbands & info, shore excursion tickets. We got from RCCL chocolate covered strawberries for anniversary, bottle of sparkling wine from TA, fruit tray with invitation to suite captains reception. Hubby has fallen asleep on lounge chair on balcony. Boy just let me say these bathtubs are high & a struggle for 5 foot me! Everyone has been so nice!!

Interesting that you were offered a 50% discount on Chef's Table. Between the fact that neither of us drinks alcohol, and my seafood and mushroom allergies, I never thought Chef's Table was worth it, or even possible for us.

I completely agree with you about the high bathtubs! :eek: I am also 5 feet tall, and have had both knees and both hips replaced. Getting in and out of those tubs really is a challenge! We recently sailed on Koningsdam, and I LOVED our extra large walk in shower with excellent water pressure. I think I'd sail that ship again for the shower alone!

We were in the suite lounge for lunch after we boarded & the guy came over & spoke with us. They didn’t have many signed up for Friday or Saturday so I think that is why. Just ask next time. So we got up to watch a beautiful sunrise from our balcony. Now having breakfast in Coastal Kitchen. It is a gorgeous day!

So today we had breakfast in Coastal Kitchen, very nice. Finally made it to the solarium & WOW!!! Then Captain’s reception in suite lounge then lunch in Park Cafe - loved that. Both the Solarium about 0900 & Park Cafe about 12 were not very busy. Relaxed on balcony, now to get ready for first formal night. I will say hubby got the refreshment beverage package mainly because he likes bottled sparkling water, well it took til this afternoon to find some! Even the suite lounge kept giving him a glass of soda water. Finally went to deck 5 & asked & went to 3 bars on that floor & got some to take to room but 2 different brands! But at least he got some & now knows where to get it. Anyone can get regular bottled water, they never asked for his card for that.

Quick update as we dock in Labadee! Beautiful weather here! Kinda surprised that there are a few kayaks not really that far from us. Went to WJ for quick breakfast probably around 7, by about 7:20 folks were having trouble finding seat so we beat the rush. Believe me we saw all that when going into WJ just to get mugs filled. Both Hubby & I are surprised at the amount of vibration we feel.

We can feel vibration from the ship, we are on 11 but even felt it when in suite lounge, no idea what it is from. Today have felt some swaying as well.

 

Update from Labadee, beautiful!! Barefoot beach was so nice!! We one of the first ones there & got set up in a small secluded area off to the right near the first cabana, at first in the shade but then they gave us an umbrella, hubby had a float. The guys working there were so awesome. They made sure we were always good & they are very nice & they are very proud of their village & grateful to Royal Caribbean.

 

We had dinner at Chops, so nice & they sang “Happy Anniversary” to us, off for more photos. Vebylyn who took our first photo when we boarded & we were the first to have picture before they even started taking them. She escorted us around to the different photo stops tonight & then we had a photo shoot in the picture this studio! She is so awesome & bubbly & helped make our 25th Anniversary special! We got a towel puppy tonight on bed.

 

Can’t remember not sure who it came from, no card but yesterday we got a cheese plate in room.

 

Funny, tonight Hubby said, we are not eating lunch tomorrow! Too much food!
