Which two obstructed view cabins should I pick? Booking today!)

[MarcieandTed]

Booking our August 2012 cruise on the Pearl today and would love input on which two side-by-side obstructed view cabins you guys think would be the best. (plan to put our 12 and 14 year olds next to us)

 

They all look about the same to me - I searched this board on these cabins and that's sort of what it looked like. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

 

Available cabins marked with green square.

We just stayed in 8574 with my sis in law in 8568 on the Jewel last week. (Same ship layout as the Pearl)

You can read my review of it here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1655485

 

Youll want mid to aft rooms. They are above restaurants and the shops.

The forward rooms are above the lounges and they can be up late if youre sensitive to noise...

Thanks! Your review was really helpful.

Are the lifeboats near 8556 smaller (and not as tall)?

Does anyone know if 8556/8558 have two elongated windows or one big window?

(I guess it doesn't matter)
