This has been an amazing cruise. Our first time on one of the bigger ships - our previous two cruises were on Grandeur. So everything has been new to us, except the Captain. We sailed with Captain Espen on all three RCI cruises so far.

 

It is funny, every cruise seems to start off slow, and you think, this is going to be a nice long vacation, and then before you know it, you come back and there are the luggage tags and instructions to disembark :(. My wife and son are already moaning about not wanting to leave...lol.

I sooo understand the feeling. And the best way to beat the feeling that it is over is to hit the next cruise desk and start planning your next cruise!

We are booked on Harmony for next Thanksgiving. I did price out 11 night Southern on Navigator over Christmas and New Years, but my wife wants to spend it with family. I said, we will - our extended cruising family :). Maybe 2017!

 

 

Very nice! You are going to love Harmony!!

That's a fun tour! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Though did not see too many people with

the "closed toe shoes". ;)

 

We are right behind Gary (Mr. Wizard) when he takes Freedom back in to pick us up on 12/6. :)

 

Thanks again for your review. Great job! Enjoy your day at sea!

It wasn't any better to watch the flightless Birds here in FL! At least you had a beautiful ship to enjoy afterwards! Really enjoyed your reports on Freedom...we will sail on her in late February to St. Maarten and St. Thomas.

 

 

Thanks! Enjoy the Freedom, I am sure we will not be celebrating a Super Bowl right before your trip. :)
