Rare Radio Posted May 12, 2010 Author #227 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Hello everyone. . . We are on our way to Cape Liberty in Bayonne, NJ. The last day at sea is always a day that people wish that didn’t happen. Sometimes it is sad when you know you have to leave so soon. . . I will try to enjoy my final day on the beautiful Explorer of the Seas, and wait until tonight to start thinking about debarkation tomorrow. There will be a ton of activities today. . . From sun up until late tonight, there are things happening all over the ship. (I will post each Daily Compass when I return) I want to do the Rock Climbing, and do some skating in Studio B today, and I still need to visit Casino Royale before I leave. Here are a few pics from this morning. . It was a little cold, but the forecast calls for clear skies, and temps around 70F. Thanks for all of the nice comments, and thanks for tuning in. . . Radio The sun comes up slowly for our last day at sea. . . It is a little chilly up on Deck 12 early this morning. The deck are almost empty, at 6AM this morning The Solarium is even quiet It looks like it will be another sunny day! There has been a lot of sun on this cruise. . . .

dzcruisers Posted May 12, 2010 #241 Share Posted May 12, 2010 There is a ginger candy! You could take the ginger pills for prevention then if you feel seasick, eat ginger candy or ginger snap cookies. Pretty much anything with ginger in it will help, that is why you are given ginger ale for upset stomachs. Trader Joes has some uncrystallized candied ginger that I use. If I have a piece or two each morning I do ok. If the seas get really rough I'll have another piece or two. On our last cruise a cruise mate saw my wrist bands and suggested I try the ginger. I am forever indebted! The ginger works better than anything else for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF-1 Posted May 12, 2010 #242 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I want to thank everyone who posted pics and comments on this thread. I can only afford to cruise every two years; so in between cruises I like to be on the chat boards and interact and see what everyone is doing. I get so much valuable information from these boards, that when I do cruise, I feel like I have a wealth of knowledge; so again, thanks to everyone, especially Radio, you have provided wonderful insight into this Bermuda cruise; your pictures and comments are great, and I have visited your website and looked at Freedom, which I will be sailing on next year.

bgmtrans Posted May 12, 2010 #247 Share Posted May 12, 2010 You can set the board to automatically subscribe you to a thread when you post to it. I find that the most convenient. Then when you return to the board, just click on the "User CP" link at the top left and you will come to a page that shows all the threads you've participated in that have had later posts.

counsdr Posted May 12, 2010 #250 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Radio - would you please report on the disembarkation upon return to Cape Liberty - we will be there at the end of the summer for the first time and someone recently reported it was very difficult to maneuver the port. Your impressions and tips, please.... :o Thank you. I have cruised out of Cape Liberty twice and it has been super easy! The worst part is if you are waiting for a car service or someone to pick you up as the road into the pier gets very crowded with people picking up and dropping off. What do you mean by maneuver? Our luggage was taken immediately, we walked into the terminal, thru the scanners and got our keys all within 30 minutes. Getting off, we waited until they called our color, exited the ship and found our luggage and someone to carry it for us within 15 minutes of our color being called. The only wait was for our car service. The shuttle buses are right there and the ride no more than 2 minutes. Enjoy! Cheryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
