the well known Orient Beach were clothing is optional....

 

 

 

I love Orient Beach....not because it's clothing optional, but because it is simply one of the most beautiful beaches we've been to in the Caribbean. The water is crystal clear and very warm....just love it.

great way to end the cruise though.....

 

[sonicbuffalo]

we spent the night before the cruise at Homewood Suites in Ft. Lauderdale. It was an awesome place to stay. If you stay during the week, they even feed you on the buffet.

Loving your review. The masks were fabulous. I also took many pictures of them while on the ship.

Enjoying your multi cruise review. Your pictures are wonderful.

[sonicbuffalo]

forgot to tell you we had another aft balcony...they're the best for us...

docking in La Romana, Dominican Republic....very rocky near the pier

 

 

 

 

[sonicbuffalo]

We had no idea what to do in La Romana....some people from the CC group were going to an all inclusive resort, but we didn't want to spend the money here. We just hopped off the ship and found a local bus terminal that would take you to either downtown village or the artist village called Alto De Chavon. The buses only cost around $7 or $8 bucks round trip, so we decided on Alto De Chavon. We had a good time there...it was fun and we could return any time we wanted.
