Super. Not really on topic though. Also, don't you have to have Allstate insurance?

I know it used to be easier to get discounted cards from Carnival (just answers some quizzes and use points to buy cards for 10% off). Now you have to be a member, and it seems like people are losing their crap over this. I just paid $12 to join for a year, then turned around and saved $260 buying 5 cards ($500 cards are $448). I didn't even have to answer questions or build up points for a few weeks, which was well worth $12 of my time.

We'll be in St Martin in March of next year. The wife and I have been there before. We'll be bringing our (will be) 12 and 8 year olds this time.

There's plenty to do, with good shows, comedy, food, etc. But if you're the least bit adventurous, you'll be exhausted after a few days. I've never been on a ship that was this quiet at night. Everyone is sleeping.

Thanks, that's good information.

Looks like there's a big beach surrounding the cruise pier. If so, I assume it's not free?
