Embarkation: Since we live in Central Florida and part of a group we arrived at the port by bus around 10:30am.We were able to go through security right away and then right to check in. Check in was very quick and efficient, we were on board by 11:15 and after buying a soda package we to lunch at Sorrento's on Deck 5. Ship Information; After lunch my D W and I started to look around the ship; we could see that it was as clean and beautiful as it was the first time we cruised on it in Nov. 2007. Went to the dining room to check out our table assignment.Walked around and checked out the ship;every area shiny and well kept. Activities: From the time we boarded until we left there was no time to bored or lack of things to do. Being junior senior citizens we did not do all the hyperactive activities such as rock wall or flow rider but I enjoy watching. I used the fitness center and it was very clean and well equipped. Used the mini-golf and the walking track. although it was quite windy on the way to the Caribbean.The ship did rock and roll some and people with motion sickness had some problems. Enjoyed the ice show and some of the production shows and the comedians. The cruise director Richard Spacey was the best. Ports: Coco Cay. Due to the wind we did not go ashore

St Thomas: Did no excursions. Did go to Paradise Point and took in the beautiful view and watched the bird show; took some photos. My D W did some shopping. St. Martin; Walked around and did some shopping and checked out a couple Casinos. Disembarkation; Painless;were off the ship by 8:15 threw security quickly and to the luggage pick-up. Had to wait for one bag to show up. Summary: Another wonderful cruise on RCCL. No glaring issues Will cruise RCCL. again, going on the Grandeur of the Seas Dec. 7. We did have a problem with the balcony door which was quickly fixed by a maintenance man. The sheer curtain on the door was badly worn other than that the cabin was fine. :D:D:D
