Just back from Legend W. Carib

[TheBeachBears]

We are still in Tampa flying home to 15 inches of snow tomorrow. Will be writing an extremely long review but until then I will answer any questions regarding the ship or the ports of call-Grand Cayman, Costa Maya, Belize and Cozumel.

 

We did a nextcruise booking as well hoping to book the Explorer 9 night for next year once I know when my vacation is.

Will be doing this same cruise in just about a month. Can't wait to read your review - which I hope will have good things to say. I have so many questions I don't know what to ask - just thought of one! We have an excursion booked for 8:30am in Belize. Is this unrealistic? The company we are using booked the time. Have never tendered before so I was just wondering.

 

Sorry to hear about your trip home to snow. I guess it's a plus to live here in Central FL. Travel safe and I will be looking for your review!

I don't think that 8:30 is unreasonable. We traveled the week of 2/17 and we had an early excursion through RCI and they had us meeting right away in the theater at 7am for the first tenders. I am sure that they would also accomodate people that need to tender early for outside excursions as well. It is a rather long tender itself though, probably around 10 minutes just on the water.

Ok. Thanks. I was planning on going to Guest Relations during a quiet time and show them our confirmation and ask what to do. I just worry about these "little" details. By the way, how was the weather? Was it really hot? I heard that this is one of the best times to do Belize - before it gets too awful.

In regards to Belize-they are going to be two hours behind DST. If you change your clocks on board, you may only be an hour behind. Our tour was for 7:30 belize time with Coral Breeze tours (excellent tour BTW). The tender is a long ride, about 15-20 minutes.

 

Jamie and I got SEVERE sunburns in Belize-enough that we did not go to lobster night. I am still hurting 5 days later, but on the mend. Wear heavy duty sunscreen and try to find shade wherever you go. But it was a beautiful place.

Thanks for the information! I appreciate it. We are Central Floridians so we are pretty used to sun but plan to bring extra heavy duty sunblock. I will pay close attention to shiptime vs. local time. Can't wait to read the review and thanks for the insight!!:)

We did cave tubeing with X-stream in Belize and had to be at the pier at 8:30. No problem. I loved Legend, and I'm sorry to see her winter homeport will be in the Dominican Republic in 2008. It was so much easier leaving out of Tampa!
