Boarding time for 5 day Pearl out of Miami

[cruisecap]

Does anyone know what time you can actually board the ship since it does not leave Miami until 8:00 P.M.?

Im on the 9 day Pearl out of Miami and we dont return until 12 noon on Sunday. By the time we all disembark...I cant imagine boarding time any earlier than 4pm, but then again, this is a guess. Hope you have a fantastic time. I cant wait to cruise on the Pearl myself.

I am curious about this too. Im on the Jan 14th 5 nite cruise and concerned

about check out time at the hotel and time we embark. I guess we sit

for a couple hours at the pier and wait?
