Just booked the QOS for 12 Dec 2014 an 8 night Bahamas cruise. That fit into Julie's college schedule. I'm also booked for the Oasis of the Seas on 3 May 2014 with my sister and my Florida friends. Maybe you all can do the QOS with us??? :D [quote name='suizas']did you find the famous roast beef sandwiches on board and if so, where and when??

Unfortunately a cruise in Dec. would be to risky for us with our weather. If we got snow and our dog sitter had problems I would never be forgivin ! We are looking at a cruise in Sept, right after Labor Day. There is a 4 night Bahamas cruise, and a 5 night Western Caribbean, both out of Fla. I'll let you know if I book one. The Wow sale starts tomorrow so ill see what their pricesre like. Happy cruising ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Park Cafe ones are served warm, sliced to order, with the most delicious horseradish sauce I've ever had. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annefran Posted November 5, 2013 Author #68 Share Posted November 5, 2013 This cruise seems so far away already....cannot believe that I won't be cruising again until May 2014!!! I need a quick fix between now and then. If I do get an opportunity, will definitely write another review. Maybe even a LIVE one!

I made reservation for the ice show but looking for other things to make sure I try. I do have one other question? Is it true besides the freestyle machine there's not drink (tea, juices, water) stations 24/7 like on Carnival? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ice Show is a must. Try to see all the shows that they have available, all are great. Wonder the ship when you first get on board to familiarize yourself with the decks. The flow rider is a lot of fun and you can sign up for personalized lessons either online before you go or while on board. The pool is area is large with it's 2 areas. Stop down in the gym to see the boxing ring, pretty cool. Not sure of your itinerary, but if you stop in Labadee for the day, roam the island. It's actually quite gorgeous and there's lots to do there. If you can rent one of the cabanas on Nellie's beach well worth the extra money. Have a great cruise and enjoy!

Thanks for the info. Our itinerary is the Eastern leg, Coco Cay, St. Thomas and St. Maarten. I'm definitely going to try the flow rider...we'll see how that goes. :confused: I'm going to try and get onboard asap so I can do what you said and spend some time to wonder the ship and familiarize myself before the masses board.
