Current situation at Labadee.

 

 

Connection is slow, will post more tomorrow. 

How crowded was Labadee?  We booked a bungalow (?) on Nellies beach.  Wondering if we would really need for shade and crowds.

Labadee was not crowded at all with just Adventure there. No problem finding shade to park a chair in.

There can be more than one ship there at a time?  How can you find out if there is another ship in port with your ship?

There are port schedules that you can check but I don't have the websites right now. They are in my laptop back home. I only have my phone. I was there once on Indy with Granduer and another time on Freedom with Explorer. This visit was noticeably less crowded.

 

Try googling cruise ship port schedules.

Hello, brief update from San Juan. 

 

It's gorgeous.

Not the blood, wolf, whatever

Thanks for all of the amazing updates and photos - I can't wait until my turn in a few weeks!

 

OB - save some cosmo's for me, ok?

Docking in St Maarten as I type.

We did have a cool lunar eclipse at sea the night of the football playoffs.

 

St. Maarten is gorgeous today. I love this island. Harmony is next to us. As much as I enjoy everything on the Oasis ships, I still find myself so much more relaxed on V/F class ships. This is a great week so far.

Beautiful Harmony of the seas coming into port.

It was a great day at Holland House.

Lunch from Maxine's, gelato on the boardwalk.

Harmony and Adventure 

 

[twopackages]

• How did you get to Holland House?  
  Did you have to get there early to secure loungers and an umbrella?
   
• We were thinking of going there on our cruise (one week and 3 days - but who is counting), but don't really know the procedure.  
• Thanks!

Those first gen men's bathrooms on deck 11 were special.

Mariner was very similar, I remember watching dolphins from there while on the Singapore trip

Great shot John 

If you don't mind, on your next port stop, could you please share a picture of the exterior of the ship, starboard forward with the Deck 11 Junior Suites. I'm booked on AOS and on one of those cabins later this year. Thanks

Tomorrow is our last stop, St Kitts, I'll try and get one. Not sure what side we dock on.  

 

We have one of the deck 12 VP suites in December.  This is a very nice ship, BTW.  

 

Nice location

Not a fan of Terminal 29.  We'll probably park offsite in December.  No advantage to using the mid term garage.

If I were you, I'd be very spoiled by T1 in Port Canaveral.

T3 for Carnival will be very nice as well. I'm hoping an Icon comes to T1 due to the LNG bunkering needed for Mardi Gras and NASA

John - Thanks for this and all the updates. We will be in 11006 in December right after you. 

The ship dose look great and big changes since we sailed on her a few years back.
