CaribbeanH2OLover Posted March 30, 2014 Author #52 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Thanks so much for taking the time to review. I'm considering this ship since I love Liberty and Freedom. Love the pics and can't wait for more!! Go for it! The Indy was fantastic! The service and food were outstanding. We have also been on the Freedom and the ships are identical. The Indy has more of a European feel with the decor. Everything else is the same except the Indy does not have the dreamworks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerriWthr Posted March 30, 2014 #53 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I love your review! It's making it very hard for me to contain my excitement until November!! My daughter and I are taking our first RC cruise to celebrate my birthday. It will be her first cruise ever (she's 28) and I can't wait to share your review with her! She has no idea what she's in for!! I may never get her off!! Can't wait to see and hear more about your vacation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The great thing about cruising is you can do as little or as much as you want. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emeraldcity Posted March 31, 2014 #56 Share Posted March 31, 2014 You didn't beat the Chair Hogs' Grand Puhbah to the Solarium. Usually these folks go to a little more trouble to set up camp. This group just settled for laying their nicely folded ship's towel in the middle of the chair. Loving the review. Thank you so much for taking the time to post. I'm within 3 weeks now of a cruise that I booked 494 days out ... it will be my first time on the Freedom class and I'm SOOO ready for the cruise!

Cruising Couple from Fl Posted March 31, 2014 #59 Share Posted March 31, 2014 We were on the Indy Mar 15 and the band called rock the boat was on board they were the best rock band we have seen on board any ship. They have been on the Indy for years don't miss seeing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choozin Croozin Posted March 31, 2014 #60 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Is there a place near the pool that you can at least get burgers, hot dogs and fries? That might be a celebrity thing.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikensuenfl Posted March 31, 2014 #61 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Blueboy, when we left the ship we walked across the street to the blue canopy. Park-n-go van was right there waiting,, great fast service, the van took us back to lot and dropped us off at our van . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jailer19 Posted March 31, 2014 #64 Share Posted March 31, 2014 There is nothing like a sunset at sea... And lobster... Was the lobster actually on the menu or did you special order it? Going in November and would be amazing to have Lobster one night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaribbeanH2OLover Posted March 31, 2014 Author #65 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Was the lobster actually on the menu or did you special order it? Going in November and would be amazing to have Lobster one night! It was on the menu one night and our waiter brought a plate of a few extra without asking. I believe it we our second formal night. All other nights it was a special order. Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare nbsjcruiser Posted March 31, 2014 #68 Share Posted March 31, 2014 We do prefer the dining room for breakfast when available. We are early risers so there was never a wait. Here is a pic in the dining room during breakfast. I apologize I'm not the best photographer but did my best. :) You can order off the menu or go to this mini buffet where there was fresh fruit, yogart, cereal and toppings like nuts, coconut, candy, sprinkles etc.. This was just one side. Could not agree more. For us the MDR is THE first option for breakfast and on our recent Indy cruise it was very good. Also the lunch was quite nice as well.

CaribbeanH2OLover Posted March 31, 2014 Author #75 Share Posted March 31, 2014 This was looking at Columbus Cove. Thank you to everyone who suggested this beach. It was perfect for us. DD was able to swim in calm water, DH was able to snorkel - but didn't see much and I was able to sit in a lounge chair and watch. I also loved the fact that our buffet had no line at all. When we were heading back to the ship after lunch we noticed all the other buffets had a ton of passengers in line. I guess we lucked out. This was our buffet - no line! This is the water park area right next to Columbus Cove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
