Specific details re: Jewel and july 10th Med sailing

Hi Gang!

I've only cruise once before and things are really different now!

1- Anyone know how I can find out what specific fitness classes are available on board so I know what to bring with? Also, what is the charge??

2- Do any of the specialty restaurants really stand out as absolutely must go's?

3- Is it heavily air conditioned indoors? Do I need something other than a very light sweater?

4- We were going to schedule a tour till 1 p.m. in Rome on the 10th. Is this cutting it too close?

5- Do Walkee Talkee's work well to keep track of kids on board. Are they annoying?

 

Also, have read about meet and greets on line. When does this happen and do we need to bring anything?

 

Thanks everyone!

Hi, Kathy,

 

Answers to :

1. I don't know. Hopefully someone else does.

2. No real opinion. We usually just do Main Dining.

3. Yes, I sometimes need a light sweater in the main dining room and other public places. But it is going to be so hot in the day I might really enjoy the cool evenings.

4. I would be a little leery of that time frame.

5. I don't know.

 

My husband and I will be on this cruise with you. Please join us on the Roll Call for this sailing here:

I think you can still sign up for the Meet and Mingle Party here:

If you read the Roll Call you will see we have planned a gift exchange at the Meet and Mingle Party. The details are posted there. I am assuming the M&M will be on Monday, our 1st day at sea. There will be an invitation in your stateroom if you get signed up.

 

We're really getting excited for this cruise!!

Some people say they have good luck with walkie talkies, but they did not worl well for us. Once we got a few decks between us, they did not work at all.
