lyban Posted February 14, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Hi, A week to go before our freedom cruise. Can someone tell me the best vantage point to watch the parade for a 5 year old and does anyone know which day the parade is scheduled. Or is it more than once on a seven day. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare APDMOM Posted February 14, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Our tradition is to show up at Bull & Bear Pub about an hour before the parade. It is one way you can sit down and watch the parade from outside the pub. In our experience, people line up pretty early and it can be tiresome to stand around and wait. Many people will also "line up" in front of you if you do not have a seat. Another option is for you to stand with your back against the wall, midway down the promenade, and have the 5-year old on your shoulders. That way, you do not block anyone's view, but your child will have a great view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare APDMOM Posted February 14, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Here is a link to the compass for the western itinerary, as posted on the unofficial royal caribbean blog... you may get an idea of when the parade is from these: https://issuu.com/hochmania/docs/as_you_board?e=2025714/33007030 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare APDMOM Posted February 14, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 14, 2016 PS: I think the parade was twice on all our sailings so far... :) Enjoy Freedom! She is our second favorite ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare APDMOM Posted February 14, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Apdmom, Thank you for that info, any idea what day it is and time. Unfortunately, I only remember that one was on a sea day at 5 or 5:15 p.m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyban Posted February 14, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Apdmom, We must have been posting at the same time. I am on an eastern trip but either way I cannot open what you sent. Is the parade only one time during the week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare APDMOM Posted February 14, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Apdmom, We must have been posting at the same time. I am on an eastern trip but either way I cannot open what you sent. Is the parade only one time during the week Sorry you could not open that. On the Western it was on Day 7, so I am pretty sure it will be the same for you, as it is a sea day. Note the screenshots from the Compass... Also, be sure to look out for the character appearances, because they let you take pictures with your own camera! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionat29 Posted March 24, 2016 #9 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Hi, A week to go before our freedom cruise. Can someone tell me the best vantage point to watch the parade for a 5 year old and does anyone know which day the parade is scheduled. Or is it more than once on a seven day.
