This was a jam-packed cruise to Labadee, Haiti Falmouth, Jamaica; Georgetown, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel. This was our 6th RCI cruise, but the first with our our (now all grown) kods. We were amazed at how smooth boarding was at Port Canaveral. The whole process took at most 20 minutes, and the entire staff at the terminal treated us like royalty. Instead of going straight to the Windjammer before checking into our cabin, we hung out poolside, had a few drinks, and brought a few plates of food out from the buffet. It's a much more pleasant way to spend the time.

Our balcony cabin on desk 7 forward was very spacious and spotless. Our steward took wonderful care of us, as did the wait staff. In addition to the dining room, we also dined at Chops Grille -- TWICE (it was that good) and Giovanni's Table (also excellent). Both are worth the premium price. We did Royal Caribbean shore excursions in all ports except Cozumel, where we went to a private beach club (Nachi Cocum), which was amazing. All our shore excursions were wonderful -- we went to a coffee plantation in Jamaica and had a great tour of Grad Cayman. Everything about this cruise was excellent, except that seemed to be constantly on the go. We have never had a bad cruise on Royal Caribbean, and are looking forward to our October transatlantic on Harmony of the Seas.
