Jack is there to the end of the year, though, and his business partner will take over the Shack. Thanks for that history lesson. Since my first time there will be next year, I'll watch reports to see if it stays the same or any changes happen before my cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted July 3, 2023 Author #27 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Im back! This cruise is now paid for. I may seek an upgrade soon. We have started planning. Since its Sept I'm starting to watch the NOAA hurricane site! Booked an excursion for Nassau, am giving strong consideration to Jack's Shack mentioned above. I would love to hear your thoughts on the beaches on the private island. (haven't looked at excursions there. ) We don't hate kids or avoid them, but is one beach adults only? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talking about Half Moon Cay? If so, it is fairly small. It’s one beach in a long strip. If you head down the beach, a ways past the pirate ship, it will get quieter.

Rare Haljo1935 Posted July 3, 2023 #29 Share Posted July 3, 2023 @BillOh this is one of the many locals that have the run of the island. The water is gorgeous everywhere. This was taken Feb 10, 2023 Cockburn Town, Grand Turks. Safe travels - enjoy your cruise! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddymikey1975 Posted July 5, 2023 #31 Share Posted July 5, 2023 We'll be sailing on Freedom on the 28th of this month. We really loved miracle and are looking forward to the Freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted August 2, 2023 Author #32 Share Posted August 2, 2023 We moved up to Deck 8, but still an interior room. 45 days to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted September 12, 2023 Author #33 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I thought I'd update this thread. Hard to believe this year has passed so quickly. Tomorrow afternoon we are starting our drive to Port Canaveral, we will visit family and have a Playa Linda beach day before and after the cruise! I did pay $40 and upgraded from deck 1 to another inside of deck 8 near the bow. Looking forward to a new experience. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is gone but there is another poster that has strange similarities to him. That's what I first thought when I saw the title of this thread... "Sgt Schultz is back?!!"

Rare BillOh Posted September 24, 2023 Author #36 Share Posted September 24, 2023 We are back! I will be working on a review in the Royal Caribbean forum for people who might want to venture over to the dark side 🙂 I hope to be objective and relate our experiences. Feel free to go over and check it out. Our next Royal cruise is booked, but if any of you want to buy me a Carnival Cruise, I will happily accept! Now off to update my CC signature.

Rare BillOh Posted September 26, 2023 Author #37 Share Posted September 26, 2023 By the way we did meet some fun people on this ship. Carnival may have some valid claim to being THE FUN SHIP. Over the years we have made many cruise friends and we added a few more this cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted November 3, 2023 Author #38 Share Posted November 3, 2023 My last post in this thread will be to post this picture. Its been about 6 weeks since we got off the ship. Freedom is on her way back to Port Canaveral sporting her new paint job and whale tail funnel. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
