leosmom08 Posted April 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2016 We're on Freedom right now. I am pretty sensitive to motion but man are we rocking and rolling! It's hard to stand still. Crew said we are going through a storm. The promenade is fairly empty. Hopefully things calm down a tad tonight. I am not holding out hope for Coco Cay tomorrow :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megan07 Posted April 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I hope things calm down. I'm on this ship in two weeks! Here's to calmer seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted April 18, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Good luck tonight. I'm seeing forecast winds about 10mph tomorrow morning, so don't give up on Coco Cay yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted April 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 18, 2016 We have experienced the "rock and roll" of the sea on a couple of our cruises. The next day was beautiful and calm. Hopefully it will be for you as well. Keep us posted. Happy sailing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted April 18, 2016 #5 Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) wind has been pretty stiff out of the NE for a couple of days. this will build the seas buoy off the cape is registering 7.5 foot waves on a 6 foot swell sailing to the SE leaving Canaveral across the Gulf Stream ... yep it is gonna be bouncy Coco should be in the lee of the northern Bahama Bank tho .... since the wind is from the NE Edited April 18, 2016 by Capt_BJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNcrzr4life Posted April 18, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 18, 2016 We are on here, too. Have seen many people holding on as walking around. We tried walking on pool deck after dinner but far too windy. Maybe we will be rocked to sleep[emoji4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeBCruisin Posted April 18, 2016 #7 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Skirted a Hurricane on the Majesty back in 1997 - talk about Rockin and rolling!! 12 foot swells!! Was majorly impressed that the juggler featured that night could even perform!! Weather was fine though after we circumnavigated the storm.

wenny101 Posted April 18, 2016 #8 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Just got off the Freedom today we had very strong winds last night we went to our cabin early because the movement was getting to me. I can tell you our first sea day was pretty rocky and so was our last but everything else was smooth sailing almost like glass. Have a great trip!😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SherriZ366 Posted April 18, 2016 #21 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Yes, we are. Bonus is we will arrive in St Thomas a couple of hours earlier[emoji4]Hope this happens on our cruise. It did on our last FR eastern and it was great to get into STT early. We also sailed parallel with Regal Princess so it was cool to see a ship off our balcony the whole way to STT. (Regal Princess will probably be gone for our June 19 cruise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusin4Abruisn Posted April 18, 2016 #22 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Yes, we have voom. It's $15 for one device and $30 for two. Onboard offer of 2nd line 1/2 off. If Crown and Anchor, may receive a bogo free [emoji3] I just checked today and they are currently having a BOGO special, if you purchase online. I just bought 2 lines for $15 a day ($105 for the week). I've read that these specials sometimes only last a day, so I booked it today for our cruise on the Freedom, which leaves next Sunday.

JaniceB Posted April 19, 2016 #23 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I heard the seas in south Florida were running about 10 feet yesterday. I wonder if the ship is still rocking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leosmom08 Posted April 19, 2016 Author #24 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Yes, it is!!! Onboard now. Water was spilling out of the pools yesterday. I was waiting for an "alphaX3" with formal night and all the ladies in tall heels trying to walk! Lol! We're having a blast regardless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypbmxgurl Posted April 19, 2016 #25 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Lmao!! That is why I will just bring some flats. No thanks!! That would be fun to watch the women though. Glad you are enjoying yourselves !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
