independence cabin 1230 or 1530

[Sultan84]

Hi, we were able to get one of the forward balconies on our upcoming transatlantic sailing on the independence of the seas. I know the cabin might be a bit more rocky, but we wanted it for the forward and sideways view on the ocean. Since there is no longer the noise  problem with the fitness area above, we felt lucky to get 1230

Now I have some questions that previous cruisers in these cabins will be able to answer:

- can the bridge crew look right into the balcony from their outside bridge stand?

- is there a way to fix a hammock on the railing around the balcony?

- is the balcony smaller or lager or the same as the balconies on deck 10?

Any picture or opinion of the cabin / balcony would greatly be appreciated.

Thank you for your help
