We have visited St. Thomas many times on cruises and were looking for something different to do. Last week we went on a sailboat excursion on Simplicity. It was one of the best days we have spent in the Caribbean. The trip included my mother (81), me (51) and my twin sons (14). We all enjoyed the day enormously. Hinckley, the boat's resident dog, was a huge hit especially with my sons. Charlie and Josh were a delight to spend the day with and taught us so much about the history of the area. They prepared us a great lunch which we ate in Christmas Cove after Josh accompanied us snorkeling. He is very knowledgeable and showed us things we would have missed on our own. After lunch the wind picked up so we spent the time sailing off the coast of St. John. I would highly recommend as an option while in St. Thomas.

Thanks for the suggestion. We will try Ostia Antica.

We are docking back in Rome on the Allure around 7 AM at the end of July and our flight from FCO is at 3:30. Does anyone have any suggestions of a short trip that would break up just waiting at the airport for the day? We will have spent 5 days in Rome before embarking the cruise but am not sure of other options.

Thanks for any ideas.

We are traveling the Rome itinerary on the Allure on 7/30. From what I've read, it seems most passengers embark from Barcelona. Any information about embarkation and disembarkation in Rome would be very helpful. Enjoy your cruse.
