arpie05 Posted November 8, 2010 #29 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Great review...Thanks! The beach you went to in Grand Caymen - I think you posted you spent $4 for the taxi ride. DId it cost money for the hotel portion? My son and I are going in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Name Of The Game Posted November 8, 2010 Author #30 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Great review...Thanks! The beach you went to in Grand Caymen - I think you posted you spent $4 for the taxi ride. DId it cost money for the hotel portion? My son and I are going in March. We just asked the driver to let us off at Royal Palms (Seven Mile Beach). Chairs were $7.00 and didn't have umbrellas. They had tables and chairs that may have had umbrellas (not sure) by the food/drink area. If you burn easily like we do you'll need to bathe in sunblock. You can see how cloudy it was. The sun only came out for a short time and I had used spray sunblock and I still ended up with patches of burn marks on my back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruag8tr2 Posted November 8, 2010 #31 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Name- this was a great trip report. We are going on the freedom on 12-12-10. We are taking our 18 year old son with us. Did you think there was a lot of college aged people on board. He meets people easily but would probably like it if there were some pretty coeds on board for him to meet.

Name Of The Game Posted November 8, 2010 Author #32 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I'm 23. This was my fourth cruise since '08. Only on the first of two cruises in '08 did I meet a girl and couple guys my age to hang around. For the past three I just haven't met anyone close to my age. I do enjoy hanging out with my mom, but sometimes she does her own thing while I spend time on the lido deck eating, using the slide, shooting hoops, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tradewinds traveler Posted November 8, 2010 #33 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Thanks for the great review!! Thanks so much! We are going 11/14/10!! (same cruise) Which night is the formal or captain's dinner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Name Of The Game Posted November 8, 2010 Author #34 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Elegant evenings were Tuesday (sea day) and Thursday (Ocho Rios). You had to be back on board Thursday at 3:00 so no problem getting ready for dinner. The past guest party was Thursday at 5:00. The farewell party was Friday at 5:00. Have fun!

Valmcp Posted November 9, 2010 #35 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Looks like you had a great time. Was Sam (Harry Potter) the ACD on your Cruise? Sam was on the Legend as ACD to Wee Jimmy on our Oct 4th Cruise. He's just adorable! On the last night he was in the Legends show dressed up as Cher!

eyeamacruiser Posted November 9, 2010 #37 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Good review, thanks for posting it. I will be on the Freedom in January on another cruise that is A SALUTE TO VETERANS:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Name Of The Game Posted November 9, 2010 Author #38 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Glad you liked the review. Our two favorite cruises were the Triumph in '08 and this one but can't decide which is #1 and which is #2. They both had Ryan Fitzgerald for cruise director. Each time he had a great fun staff and the food and service were excellent. I have to say the worst staff we had was on the Legend a year ago but we still had fun.

marne001 Posted November 9, 2010 #39 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi Name, Love the review and photos. Was there anybody snorkeling at Royal Palms? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORB Posted November 9, 2010 #40 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Thanks for all the pictures. We are on Freedom in January (which can't come soon enough...) and one can NEVER see too many photos of one's next cruise ship. I'm also glad to hear the food is great. I know the cruise lines work to make it consistent across the fleet, but anyone who spends time on these boards--or on the ships--knows that some ships just do it better.

AQW Posted November 9, 2010 #42 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Loved seeing your pics and reminiscing about this sailing... my family had a blast! If you saw this going down the Margaritaville slide... it belongs to me. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Name Of The Game Posted November 9, 2010 Author #43 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi Name, Love the review and photos. Was there anybody snorkeling at Royal Palms? Thanks Thanks! Honestly I didn't pay attention but the beach is very sandy which doesn't make for the best snorkeling conditions. I didn't see any fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank You for the review! :D Here's the coupon for the free jello shot from Fat Tuesday. http://fattuesdaykeywest.com/coupon.html I don't see a coupon for The Lazy Gecko any more. Here's a coupon for a drink at the Bull & Whistle. We actually had this one as well but didn't use it since we were full enough from food and drinks. http://www.bullkeywest.com/WHISTLEcoupon.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name Of The Game Posted November 10, 2010 Author #48 Share Posted November 10, 2010 These are some of the things they showed on the big screen: Sunday Night Football Monday Night Football Paul McCartney Concert Randy Travis Concert Billy Joel Concert Jonas Brothers Concert Movies: Play the Game Sherlock Holmes Up in the Air The Blind Side There was no charge to use the pool or beach at Margaritaville but they do make sure that you purchase something. To get there you make a left at the end of the pier and just follow the road to Island Village. It only takes five minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
