Cruisings the Game Posted March 15, 2010 #631 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Radio, My wife and I followed your report all thru your week on the Oasis. We sail on her this October. We are really looking forward to our cruise. And, after seeing you great photo's of her makes us want to be on her that much sooner. Well, we want to thank you for sharing your cruise with all of us. You did a fantasic job. And, a big thank you to Mrs. Radio for allowing you to share your cruise. David & Donna Sheets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njmomof2 Posted March 15, 2010 #632 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Radio, hope that you made it home safely aboard the Autotrain. Thank you for your wonderful report...it really made me feel like I was there and have a better understanding of this great ship. And a big thank you to Mrs. Radio for allowing you to take all the time to communicate with all of us. Did you have any opportunity to see or get any information on the Central Park view cabins (w/o balcony)? I know you had a Cat D balcony, but we are booked on Oasis for next April for a family of 4 and the pricing makes this category more attractive than a balcony (and bigger too). However, if it feels to cramped or the location is not decent, I'll spend the difference and lose some space to go up to the balcony cabin. Unfortunately, there don't appear to be many reviews of this cabin category. Again, thanks for all of your wonderful information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RICKnVICK Posted March 15, 2010 #634 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Radio- thanks so much for allowing me to cruise along with you virtually! I really appreciate you taking time on your vacation to keep us excited and wanting more! Even though my cruise isn't until 2012, it is so great to see your pictures and get your perspective on things. Hope you had a safe trip home, and again thank you so much for taking time out of your vacation to do this for all of us! Vicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILuvCruisin' Posted March 15, 2010 #635 Share Posted March 15, 2010 The photos do not appear in some of them, because the 2 Photoservers I used went out of business (can you imagine?) Club Photo, and Imagestation (Sony) both went out of biz a couple years ago. That's why I now use Fotki (The worlds largest) Radio ;);) oh my...thanks for letting us know that about the Photoservers..I keep telling myself that I better keep the pics on different media as well as wiht the Photoservers...now I will be sure too :( thanks so much for allowing us to tag along...and plez tell Mrs. Radio we thank her as well...wonderful live report...I already have calendarized your Explorer cruise...you inspire me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUSING BUBBA Posted March 15, 2010 #636 Share Posted March 15, 2010 It was so nice to meet both of you on the Oasis. Did you have a safe trip home? What a GREAT CRUISE. We did get to read most of your posts and your pictures. Great pictures. Have Mrs. Radio check her email. I will be sending some of my pictures.

sunshine55 Posted March 15, 2010 #637 Share Posted March 15, 2010 The only ship where the showers are situated as you describe is the soon to debut, NCL EPIC. On Oasis and all other RCI ships (and most, if not all, others) the shower is situated in the bathroom and when you step out of the shower you are in the- bathroom- not the middle of the stateroom. Radio may have had the bathroom door open in order to get a photo of the shower, but ordinarily that door would be closed when you are showering. Thanks for the claification.

Walking out of the shower into the main part of the cabin makes zero sense to me. But I guess there will always be some designer who wants to be innovative no matter how stupid the idea is.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising89143 Posted March 15, 2010 #640 Share Posted March 15, 2010 i had no idea that the oasis had an outdoor movie screen. what movies were shown and how was the seating? now rc has everything the other ships had before........ There are two which are located on each side of the dive platform. The large screens are mainly used for the water and fountain shows. They did show a few of the football playoff games and one or two movies during the week. I liked that they did not go all day and night with the large screens since we had a cabin on the aft overlooking this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcl_cruiser Posted March 15, 2010 #641 Share Posted March 15, 2010 but my lucky machines were on smoking side! lol lol...for me, any machine that is not in the smoking area would be good luck as I have a hard time breathing in all of that. But hey maybe breathing is overrated. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked that they did not go all day and night with the large screens since we had a cabin on the aft overlooking this area. When we were sailing on Independence last month we were docked across from the Coral Princess in Ft. Lauderdale. That ship had its MUTS (movies under the stars) screen going on the pool deck. I found it to be a visual nightmare and hoped that RCI would never put such monstrosities on their ships. I hope it is set up better and not so intrusive on Oasis.

I hope it is set up better and not so intrusive on Oasis. The major difference between the Oasis and Princess/Carnival is that on the Oasis, it's not located up on the pool deck. It's in an area just off the Boardwalk purpose built for the Aqua Theater. It does not affect a person trying to relax during the day when sunning or enjoying the pool area.

cewtaldad Posted March 16, 2010 #645 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Radio, I have followed your posts this week and have really enjoyed the info you shared on Oasis. I have been an Oasis fan since I first heard that RCCL was starting the "Genesis" project. But I must say, I feel like I've learned more about this beautiful ship in the past week than I have since the keel laying. Thank you for sharing your vacation with the rest of us! I look forward to reading your review and seeing more pics of this beautiful ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Radio Posted March 16, 2010 Author #646 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hello everyone. . . I got back home this morning, and I am enjoying gray skies, and wet weather. I really loved going on the Oasis of the Seas, but it will be nice to sleep in my own bed tonight ! I have been going through many of the pics I took this past week (over 1400 of them) I have been busy deleting the ones that are blurred, didn't have enough light, had too much light or just could not be fixed. Here are a few more ics that were taken during the week (in no specific order) Thanks for tuning in. . . Radio Boardwalk Beach Pool "Hairpray" Finale Sports Pool at Night Wonder of our World (You look through each of them for a "Wonder". . . .there are 23 of these) Seven Hearts (Card Room) .

Rare Radio Posted March 16, 2010 Author #647 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Here are a few more. . . Just different areas around Oasis of the Seas Radio Library There were over 400 Diamond members on board, so their event was moved to Blaze Nightclub (There were 46 D+) Entrance to the Solarium Bistro The Rising Tide Bar goes from Deck 5, and up 3 levels to Deck 8 Passengers used to have access to the Shuffleboard Court at the AFT of the Aquatheatre but this is a "Crew Only" area now. The Red and Green STOP Lights on the Rockwall let the divers know if it is OK for Diving . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Radio Posted March 16, 2010 Author #648 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Ok Ok. . . thee will be the last for tonight. It's back to work for me tomorrow. . . Radio The menu looked good, but we never made it to Seafood Shack We really enjoyed the Boardwalk area. . . There were rarely crowds there. I went to the Comedy Club on Deck 4 The Comics were funny, and there was ample seating If you get to the Windjammer early, there is plenty of room with great views The Wipeout Cafe offered Burgers, Hot Dogs, Fries, and Frozen Yogurt .
