Thank you so much for the information! We're going on May 11 and it's our first cruise....so excited!!

 

My questions: We got the Faster to the Fun pass...can we disembark later than others. We live in Tampa and are in no hurry to get off the ship.

 

What did the men wear on formal night? My husband is fighting me on wearing a jacket. Would a nice button up shirt do?

 

Thank you in advance!!

I grabbed my copy of the Funtimes and headed to the Lido for lunch. I still hadn't heard from the rest of my group. I went to the Mongolian station for lunch. This was my first time eating the Mongolian. There was no line so I decided to try it. I have read a lot of reviews that it is really good. I was disappointed. I think I would have preferred to have rice as a choice instead of noodles. After lunch I headed to the Serenity deck to check it out.

 

Here are some pictures.
