seadog67 Posted November 12, 2016 Author #551 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Seadog, Thank you for your great review. I really enjoyed following your trip. We our on the same itinerary for the New Years cruise. I am sure your three dogs will be glad to see you! Thank you! I bet New Years on Reflection will be spectacular! Have fun. Yes we're missing our little guys as well so looking forward to all the kisses when we pick them up! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRIFRO Posted November 14, 2016 #560 Share Posted November 14, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the reviews. On board in 2 weeks so living the trip through you this week! Appreciate you posting the dailies as well. Sailing Dec 24th. Thank you for being our "early eyes". We really appreciate the "stuff" and are really excited to be there in December celebrating a "Cruise Christmas".

seadog67 Posted November 14, 2016 Author #561 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Is this the priority boarding area for the suite guests? That is the general boarding area in that hall. They have separate lines inside the same hall for Suites, then one for Aqua Class then Concierge Class then the rest. But they are all in the same area.

lola2013 Posted November 16, 2016 #566 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Seadog, I know I am late joining this party...but WOW...what an amazing review. It was the most informative and fun review I've read. My friends and I will be on Reflection in March...I have been in a pre-cruise funk...reservations are made, final payment paid, pre-cruise hotel, excursions, alcove, etc., etc., etc...all done! Now I can see what an unbelievably good time I will have (although I have NEVER had a bad experience on a cruise)...I am just so anxious to board Reflection. Thanks again!

FreestyleNovice Posted November 22, 2016 #572 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Some thoughts on the bungalow, (we saw one other bungalow in use) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Hi seadog, the other bungalow here. You guys left early that day did you? (I just found out after re-reading the thread, which I also followed a bit late after it started hehe..) What time were you at the port terminal on embarkation day? We were at 12, long lines and 'we're onboard after one hour, missed the Concierge class lunch by 5 minutes when we got to the MDR but did saw some folks eating lunch in the MDR so was wondering what could have been the best timing on that *cough* .. day :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a blast on the 28th Cherylxox! I just checked and do not have the embarkation daily. I am not sure if we received one or not, butI do not have it, nor a picture of it. Sorry themutis. Thanks for following again all week! Hope to have time over the long holiday to make a summary video.

Yeah we left the Bungalow about 1 or so, not exactly sure. That is about our beach time about 3 or so hours, I have a bit of ADHD, and always seem to be moving on and never able to sit to long. You would think I would be thinner :) Did you happen to experience many flies in your Bungalow? If not maybe we just choose the wrong one that maybe had something spilled from a previous tenant as there were many in and around ours. I think we arrived about 10 or 10:30 on embarkation day, we made it through quickly but were sent back outside to wait for another hour and a half and then they got us and brought us through about 12:30-1. Yes at that time there were long lines, and I am just chalking it up to them needing extra time due to finishing the transatlantic. Hope you guys had a blast as we did! Thanks for checking in!

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Not flies in particular but some insects yes, not as how you described it though. The terrain directly behind the higher numbered bungalows was some sort of parking ground for boat trailers and small equipment but it was flooded due to the previous heavy rainfall Labadee had (per our Adrenaline boat tour guide). We noticed a bit of a smell of the water now and then, mosquito heaven; wet lands and humans! We sure did enjoyed relaxing in the bungalow, we just walked up, signed and were free to pick any bungalow. The first we picked was a bit too moist with wet cushions due the same rain so we switched. I found #8 too close to the wall and small pier, would pick one of the middle ones as we both did because #1 would be too close to the path, accidental walk ins and check in in my opinion. Thanks for your embarkation experience, we dropped the bags at 10:30 and returned our rental near the IC at Sixt, shopped some clothes at the Gap store at Biscayne and decided to walk over to the ship to kill some time. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
