Hi, All!

Just returned home this morning following the September 26th five-day out of Bayonne to Bermuda. This was our fourth cruise, and our second on the Explorer of the Seas. This was also our second cruise to Bermuda, as we had sailed the Voyager on the same itinerary in 2005. For this cruise, we booked two balcony cabins; an E2 # 7322 for DH and myself, and a D3 # 6336 for DS and his friend (both 22 years old). We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. We had a great cruise in spite of the high winds that plagued us throughout the two full sea days; Day 2 being much worse than Day 4. Weather in Bermuda was warm and mostly sunny, with a few scattered showers. Sorry if I go long here...

Arriving: We live about 20 minutes west of Bayonne, and arrived at the pier a little after 10 AM. We had a brief wait (about 5 minutes) as we waited to approach the terminal to drop off our luggage, then entered the parking lot with no wait whatsoever, parked the car, and carried our hand luggage into the terminal.
