Thank you for the review, Bill. What a nice way to make the week at work seem a little less painful! The only problem was that "our cruise" was way too short. I know it will seem that way when we go in May, too. :(

[BecciBoo]

Thanks Bill and Marie, great cruise.

 

I think I can make it to May with all the reviews coming up thanks to you guys!

 

Hope the PCD will be manageable back home. Just look to the next one.....:cool:

 

After Radio's pics, we are seriously considering Quantum...

Sailing on her March 14th and loved your review and great photographs. The next 50 days will go very slowly.

 

Is there a cigar bar or place to smoke cigars?

 

We will be on the same cruise (Oasis 3/14) celebrating my husband's 70th Birthday. You will find him every night at "Cigar Under the Stars" -- Deck 17, Port side above the Solarium.

Great job as always Bill. I really enjoyed it.

 

And hopefully your Seahawks have one more win left in them this season.

Thank you for a great report. We will be celebrating my wife's 40th on the March 28 sailing of Oasis.

excellent review and thanks for taking your cruise critic family along for your week...:)

Good morning,

Thanks for all the kind words. We had a long day heading home yesterday. We had to be in Studio 5 by 7:20 to go off the ship and collect our luggage before the tour. We took the Ft Lauderdale land and water tour. We needed something to fill the time as our flight didn't leave until 6:30pm.

 

As we do laundry and put away the luggage I will post some more pictures and also scan the Cruise Compasses.

 

Friday morning we took Central Park tour with the gentleman in charge of landscaping. Fun tour with lots of facts. each of the plants are in square aluminium pots for easy remove and maintenance.

 

 

 

This thing below is actually attached to a large exhaust fan that will pull smoked out of the Promenade below it in case of a fire. They are all around Central Park.

Bill thanks for all your time away from the fun to post your review.

 

One question - are the Diamond lounges open to suite guests or only diamond members?

Since DD has been postponed all three levels of the main dining room are currently serving the same menu, correct?

The weather did not cooperate all that much with our tour yesterday. But we still had a fun time especially on the paddleboat. The gentleman narrating while on the boat has a lot of great information about the boats and homes we saw as we cruised around.
