gumballz Posted March 15, 2009 #226 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I still haven't seen any answers to this question yet. Is there a cruise critic log in the library? I didn't see one in there last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grover-Lee Posted March 15, 2009 #227 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Hello there, Just returned from the Freedom last week! Had a blast!! Todd is back as CD and is a Hoot.. Make sure if they do the bar crawl/end at Lido deck party, do it!! We had so much fun to be sober!! LOL I didn't see any Rot. Chix. but with so much other food around, I could have missed it.. Hi Tina, I'd love to hear more about the Bar Crawl. A bunch of us will be on the Freedom Feb 2010 and I can totally see us doing something like that. And what are Rot.Chix's? Maybe a silly question but for the life of me I can't think of what they are. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruzenDeb Posted March 17, 2009 #229 Share Posted March 17, 2009 We are booked for May 9th and have the same cabin. I noticed you said you had the balcony divider unlocked. Did the divider then block either of the rooms doors or window? We had them do this once but the divider would swing back and forth and you had to hold it in place with a chair, it would also block one room from using their door to the balcony. At night you would hear it slamming back and forth. Did we do something wrong??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisebie Posted March 17, 2009 #230 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Does the Freedom have a "secret" door? I know there is one on the Glory & since these are the same class of ship, I thought the Freedom may have one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruzenDeb Posted March 19, 2009 #232 Share Posted March 19, 2009 We are booked in May for the same rooms. The Balcony divider opened without getting in the way of either door to the balcony?? That would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaNavy Posted March 22, 2009 #233 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Looking forward to sailing Freedom in June - just 12 weeks to go! We have an aft balcony and I'm already thinking about balcony breakfast followed by a daily invasion of little paper umbrellas. ;) What kind of experiences have folks had brining wine/soda aboard? We would probably only bring a bottle each and maybe two 6-packs of soda. Not likely to be a problem, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would probably only bring a bottle each and maybe two 6-packs of soda. Not likely to be a problem, is it? I took a 12 pack of Diet rite in my carry on along with some water and a bottle of wine. They scanned it and gave it to me. Now we went in January so there was no Spring break attitude so I am convinced they don't treat the passengers the same if they think they are going to try to get drunk and crazy vs. reasonable behavior. I would have argued with them about the Diet Rite if they told me to get rid of it. They didn't have it onboard and it is the only diet, caffeine free drink that is sweetened with Splenda so my brain isn't affected by aspertane. I brought the water because I blow up like a blimp from all the salt in the food so I have to flush my system. Enjoy the Freedom, it was wonderful. Our friends went with us and now say they will book Carnival again. They were kind of hesitant to book Carnival because they heard it was so rowdy. Needless to say, they had a great time.

JMA Posted March 22, 2009 #236 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Can anyone tell me how cool the air conditioning is on board? I like it cool in the cabin and in the public places!! I usually bring a small fan for the room. We just got off the Emerald Princess and I found it to be very warm in the dining room and in the theatres. We'll be on the Freedom February of 2010.

Cruisechic470 Posted March 22, 2009 #238 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Anyone been on the 8-day eastern route(San Juan, Antiga, Tortola)? I would love to hear about it!!! Are there classes offered in the gym? What is the minimum age for the gym? I know it's 16 on RCCL. I have 2 teenage daughters. Anyone been on recently to tell me about the movies they show on deck? Tell me everything I'd ever want to know about the Freedom! Thx :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisechic470 Posted March 22, 2009 #239 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Also, does anyone know when the formal nights are on the 8-day eastern carribean cruise? On the sea days I assume. Also, is there any past guest perks? I can't remember... :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brcruiser Posted March 22, 2009 #240 Share Posted March 22, 2009 We did the 8-day in December. The two elegant nights were Sunday and Friday. As far as the movies shown, they included The Bucket List and Polar Express and concerts such as Hall/Oates, Randy Travis & Peter Frampton. It was a great trip-loved the ports.

brcruiser Posted March 23, 2009 #242 Share Posted March 23, 2009 At San Juan we took an horse carriage ride and shopped. At St. Thomas we rode up the skylift, shopped and went to Magen's Beach. At Tortola we booked with Patouche Charters to go to the baths. At Antigua we booked with Eli's Ecotour. At Nassau we did a walking tour (printed off the internet) and shopped. We loved each one. The baths in Tortola was especially nice because we were the only ones who booked and had a private charter to ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
