Like 3 card, ultimate hold em? I usually hang in that area that my husband calls the circus game area! He prefers craps and blackjack! Games of skill! I'll find out. 22 minutes ago, Ocean Boy said: Enjoy Freedom. She is an awesome ship. I've had some great cruises on her. Thank you she looks amazing. Can't wait.

ecslady Posted July 23, 2021 #54 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Would love to know at what capacity the ship is sailing at? Have a great cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miami Momma Posted July 23, 2021 #55 Share Posted July 23, 2021 have so much fun!!! we just booked for Oct...my husband's birthday weekend. Definitely curious at what capacity ship is running at. Also...are masks required everywhere except when eating? I know you aren't sailing with kids, but if you run across the adventure ocean planner, could you snap a pic! Kids are so excited! Thanks 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paradise4me Posted July 23, 2021 #56 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Following along, we are going next weekend! Can’t wait to hear how crowded the casino is and the regulations for the solarium and jacuzzis. Have an awesome cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #58 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) So my no complaining about traveling to Miami is only going to last for one cruise. Let's just say traffic getting here lived up to its reputation. My navigating skills also lived up to its reputation and we got turned around a bit on the way in. Soon though, this was our amazing view. Edited July 23, 2021 by jam19872016 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #59 Share Posted July 23, 2021 The wifi in here is not what I would like. Maybe it's great for internet at sea I've never had it before. It's making cc act wonky when I try to post pics. Hopefully it will improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #61 Share Posted July 23, 2021 We parked at the port for $25 a day which us pretty insane but I have had too many bad experiences with parking services in Miami so I just pay to park at the port. With limited capacity parking was plentiful. From there we boarded pretty quick. M was able to use the suite boarding line and they allowed me to tag along. Regular boarding was pretty backed up and I am not really sure why with staggered boarding. We arrived about 1:40 with a 1:30 checkin time.

Sea Viewer Posted July 23, 2021 #63 Share Posted July 23, 2021 we were on Freedom last week, had 1:00 check in, got there at 1:25 long line off to the side of people who had arrived early. Easy check in for us despite some in the crowd yelling that its time for us to board NOW!!. I guess at least in the short term arrival times are being enforced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #65 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Ok I cant seem to get the pictures to load and I cant figure out how to space them out when I post directly to cc so please forgive the weird formatting. Its my first attempt at a live review and I suspect it is ship wifi related but I am no technician lol. Giovanni's was open for lunch so we made our way down there to put our ultimate dining plan to work. They brought us some bread to start with. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFerrington Posted July 23, 2021 #68 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Very glad to see that they are still doing lunch on embarkation day even with the later check-in times. I was afraid that they would take the opportunity to cut that offering since the lunch time is so limited already. Glad to see that they did not.

Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #69 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Next I ordered the gigante meatball and it was definitely gigantic. Next I ordered the spaghetti carbonara. And for dessert I got the tiramisu. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #70 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I enjoyed everything very much. The best of all was the tiramisu. Very delicious. After lunch I started on putting the drink package to work also. Lime and coconut. This was very good and potentially dangerous if you forget it's got alcohol in it 🙂 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #74 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Almost forgot, as soon as we boarded they sent us to our muster station before we even boarded. How awesome is it that I was able to forget that I went to myster. Easy peasy for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #75 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Now that I was fed and properly hydrated we settled into our respective rooms then toured the ship a little bit. The promenade on boarding day. I suspect it is usually much busier than this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
