first thing you may want to know is ......you missed it!!! I think you meant 2008?! The weather is Great this time of year. Perfectly sunny. ST. Thomas and St. Maarten are 2 of my favorite ports. Nassau,,,,eh,....not my fav, depends if you've been there b4 or not. It's a great cruise. We're going AGAIN. Same itinerary in November

Since you have done this cruise before, which excursions did you enjoy?

We are going in Feb. Should we book private tours ahead of time or are there lots of options when you get off the ship that day?

I enjoy the shopping and did not book any excursions. When traveling with the kids, we prefer to "play it by ear" . I shop, they beach, ship, etc. But I think there are many options. They are Great ports and have many wonderful excursions. This time we will plan something for both ports as shopping can get a little pricey!!!! (they have tons of jewelry shops and I can't help myself :o ).

 

Check the boards/ports for good ideas.
