Just curious at to why you received an e-mail with your table number? Did you request to know or is this something new that they send to passengers with upcoming cruises.

I always take out a policy which is not through Royal Caribbean also. I just print out the first page with the policy number and phone number of the insurance company. There's no need to print out the whole policy.

I'm doing the same route as you in a few weeks. In St. Kitts we're doing a private tour with Thenford Grey. I have read so many good reviews about him. The tour is much cheaper than a ship tour and he gets you back in plenty of time. Just look up his website to book the tour. In St. Martin since I've already been to Orient Beach, this time we're taking a taxi to Maho Beach to watch the airplanes, in Puerto Rico which I've also been to, and we're not in port too long, we'll just walk around town, maybe have lunch and in Labadee we plan to just relax on the beach. Have their BBQ lunch and have some labadoozles which I've heard so much about!

You should be glad the reason for your cruise to be cancelled had to be because of a job change and nothing more serious. I had to cancel a cruise 4 years ago because my husband had an accident at work and passed away that same night.

Just be glad for your health and that you'll still have the chance to take another one next year.

That was great watching the ship pull away. I'll be sailing in 32 more days!!!

Great review and so entertaining! I loved your pictures also. You seem like a fun person to take a vacation with.

I'm looking forward to my cruise on the Allure in 2014.

Stupid Me! I'm going on Allure of the Seas. That's why I'm in 7201. DUH!

Is this a typo? 7201 is not a PR stateroom :) Do you mean 7261?

I just looked at my reservation and it does say Promenade Stateroom 7201. Also when I looked at the ships layout of rooms it said 7201?

We'll be in 7201. I think its above the café but there is a cabin below us. I had many choices. I hoped I picked a good one!

Great review. Looking forward to the next chapter!

Totally loving this review as I just booked a cruise last night on the Allure!

I booked a promenade cabin on Allure 7201. I was wondering if I should have booked one closer to the other end like 7187. Right now I'm underneath Park Café. Would moving 10 cabins in the other direction make a difference? It looks like there are only about 11 promenade cabins on each side.

Can't wait to read more. That mud pie looks delicious! Hope to get a slice of that on our Independence cruise.

I have 83,000 points on my Visa Royal Caribbean Bank of America credit card. I think I will redeem them today for my December cruise just to be safe!

I booked a tour with Thenford Gray for next December 2013. I heard from him by e-mail the next day and then had another question, and within the hour he answered me question by e-mail again. Don't know what could be the problem with his slow response with you.

Thanks for your review and pics so far. Enjoying reading it as I will be on that ship in 9 more months. Looking forward to more pics and the rest of your review!

Too Many!!!:eek:
