canadiancruisers11 Posted April 13, 2010 #1202 Share Posted April 13, 2010 We've been on a lot of cruises but have to say that I am more excited about leaving on the Liberty on July 4th than I have been in a while...Can't wait to get back on RCI!

miched Posted April 13, 2010 #1203 Share Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) Whats a must do? What can we skip? What is your favorite place on the ship for a sunset? A sunrise? W (can you tell Im SOOOOO excited!!!) Sunrise is best on your balcony if it is on your side of the ship. Normally you will be sleeping. Sunset is usually missed because you are in the dining room or doing something else. The other is sunset are always obstructed by the clouds. Take a picture of the sunrise and pretend it is the sunset. What to skip? Art auctions. What not to miss. Do everything that interests you in the daily events. Your likes could be what I don't like. Read one review telling everyone about some special desert that is only served at the midnight diner saying "It is to die for" (really hate that term and should have known better). We set aside one night to do that. Guess what? It was a waste of time for us. Took one bite and left it, looked at each other and laughed. Can't believe what others think is "to die for". I can't stand Karoake (spelling). Apparently a lot love it. Do everything. You are never committed to stay. You can always leave and move onto something else. Enjoy your cruise and don't sweat the small stuff. Edited April 13, 2010 by miched Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeno1 Posted April 13, 2010 #1204 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Hi all, im going on libery on 23rd May :) I just wanted to ask if the areas for sunbathing are always very crowded....anyone have any advice for finding a quiet spot??? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunandsnow Posted April 13, 2010 #1205 Share Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) deeno1 - There is a nice quiet place on deck 13. Go forward on deck 12 from where you can see below into the solarium up a flight of stairs. There are plenty of chairs. Half of the area is covered for shade and half in the sun. On our 3/21 sailing there were few people there. TIP: I remembered this when buying toilet paper the other day. The toilet paper is very cheap. If this will bug you for a week - bring your own soft stuff. Edited April 13, 2010 by sunandsnow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this will bug you for a week - bring your own soft stuff. I was going to suggest the exact same place. The signs call the area "St Tropez." Very secluded on the 3/21 sailing. I was up there for about an hour and a half during the afternoon and no one else came up there once. I almost wanted to sleep out there one night because it was so quiet and peaceful.

Cruisin4 Posted April 16, 2010 #1216 Share Posted April 16, 2010 We are sailing on Liberty on May 23rd. 10 people. 5 of us have cruised many times, 5 are newbies. Can't wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KITKAT0229 Posted April 16, 2010 #1217 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Do the lifeboats block your view down at all in balcony cabins NOT on the hump? We had a hump room on Voyager and noticed that the views looked blocked for all the other balcony rooms. Is this the case on Liberty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bay Area Pirate Posted May 21, 2010 #1222 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Im pumped about sailing on LOTS and was hoping more would sign up for the meet & mingle? If any LOTS fans are cruising on Aug 8th we could use a few more sign ups for the mingle.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crboggs Posted July 18, 2010 #1223 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Figured I would bump this thread with my LOTS cruise video from back in June. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terisu10 Posted July 19, 2010 #1224 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I was on the LOS May 30 - June 6. It was a great trip. Everyone should sign up for the Meet & Mingle! I went and met a lot of nice folks. It was good to have people to say hello to in the restaurant, promenade, pool, etc. They also raffle off free stuff at the M&M and you get a token gift - just remember to show up with your invitation.
