Love the pics! We will be on Jewel in September and it seems like forever.

Why did they have to search your bag? I thought they called you down to have you there when they searched bags.

There is crime everywhere...we all know that. One of the islands I feel is the safest is Aruba (I've been there 4 times). Now, if you are an American and have never been there, you might not agree with me because you know what happened to Natalie Halloway. I was there before that happened and after it happened. Obviously this was a horrible incident. I, however, have no problem walking around Oranjestad at night. When you are not in a familiar area (home or abroad) keep your wits about you at all times.

We are taking the Jewel as well and arrive day of the cruise at 1:30pm. The ship departs at 8:30pm and RCI told us to make sure we're on board by 7:00pm.
