The water was pretty calm except for when a boat when through like this one. Water is so calm and looks so relaxing! Loving your review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare schmoopie17 Posted June 10 #213 Share Posted June 10 (edited) We had briefly looked at the Sun for a future cruise. However, after reading the horrendous reviews on CC, we quickly squelched that idea. But following along with you, it's nice to see that the Sun isn't as bad as most of the previous reviewers make it out to be. Or maybe your fantastic photography makes it look better. Maybe we'll give it a shot some day. Edited June 10 by schmoopie17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to have the realization that she does not have all the bells and whistles of the newer ships. I honestly like that. I like the more intimate crew to passenger interaction. I like how you rarely feel crowded on the Sun. I would suggest giving her a shot. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowmeboy Posted June 16 Author #216 Share Posted June 16 After lunch, we went to the bird enclosure Susan got some bird feed from the lady and held her hand out and got several birds.

shadowmeboy Posted June 16 Author #220 Share Posted June 16 Norwegian Getaway was trying to get their people on as fast as they could. They were almost at the sail time and had a huge line still. Much shorter line! Susan is dancing to the music! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowmeboy Posted June 16 Author #222 Share Posted June 16 So stragglers kept making their way back to the ship. But we caught wind that one of the bigger shore excursions with almost 100 people was running late. Getaway is sailing off. Brian and the Shore Ex Manager were trying to find out where the shore Excursion was. The group above them had a family member taken off by ambulance when we arrived, and they were getting things situated to leave a family member in Puerto Plata to assist that member of the family who didn't make it back to the ship. Finally, the Shore excursion group made it back. We pulled up the gangway an hour after we were supposed to sail. Susan got Adult Starbucks! They threw a shot of baileys into the Frappuccino before blending it! Go Premium Plus beverage package! We are off the dock! Goodbye Puerto Plata! Next stop Baltimore! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
