mollie jo Posted July 22, 2006 #1 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Are these open when the ship is in port? And the new H2O zones? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matisse05 Posted July 22, 2006 #2 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I remembered reading in someone's FOS review that they decided to take advantage of using the flowrider while in port at Grand Caymans. If I come across the review, I'll post the link here if no one confirms this.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zotzer Posted July 22, 2006 #3 Share Posted July 22, 2006 FlowRider will have open hours on port days. They'll post them in the cruise compass. H20Zone, like the pools, is always open (although they do shut down the sprinklers and stuff in the evening hours) T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiseAwayWithMe Posted July 22, 2006 #5 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Yes, it had certain hours during the port days. I tried the flowrider on embarkation day too. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMoney Posted July 22, 2006 #8 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Patrick, do you remember what the age and height restrictions are? Hi Bill - I don't recall for sure - sorry - but if I remember correctly - there was no age restriction, just a height one, which I think was 56 inches? Hopefully someone will know for sure.

Rare BillOh Posted July 22, 2006 #10 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I'm stupid enough to give this thing a try, but maybe wait till late in the cruise in case I get hurt. Is there an extra charge, reservations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there an extra charge, reservations?Go on the first day. You wont get hurt. If you go near the end and really enjoy it you might regret not going the whole week. There is no additional charge and there were no reservations. Just go to the desk there, sign up, and get your wristband. Then you are good to go.

I am guessing that they adjusted the times to mach the demand because most days it opened at 2:00pm in the afternoon. I think our inaugural cruise compasses won't be a good indication for current cruisers on many schedules. Someone onboard told me everything was running really wide open during that first week, while they figured out everyone's patterns. Dining rooms, flowrider, etc..... That's why I am eager to see if the experience is different in December, when schedules have been tightened up a bit. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully someone will know for sure. Thanks, Patrick. Unless one of them undergoes a tremendous growth spurt in the next three months, I don't think any of the grandkids will qualify.:) The H20 zone should more than satisfy them, and I'll stick to the cantilevered hot tubs in the Solarium.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

negc Posted July 22, 2006 #18 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Are you going to try the boxing ring? And what are you doing for excursions? Sorry, I have no cruise planned for awhile and I am nosy! No boxing ring for me. Not a violent person ordinarily.;) No special plans for excursions, although we'll probably take everyone on a stingray excursion in GC. In Cozumel we will most likely go to Paradise beach. In MoBay we are wavering between Doctor's Cave beach and a day pass at Sunset Bay resort which has a nice water park for the grandkids. If I could interest my kids and their spouses in the canopy zipline, I might be tempted but I think we'll have to limit ourselves to things that include everyone including the grandkids. I also have been looking at the bubble submarine excursion in GC but couldn't find a price on my initial look at their website. Did the BOB in St. Thomas and enjoyed it, and this might be a similar experience. Hey, if you have to live vicariously, don't apologize.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
