This is part 2 of our back to back cruises on the Allure of the Seas, Day 1 in Fort Lauderdale started with all passengers doing consecutive cruises meeting at the Comedy Club, here we were told that we were to be taken to the terminal until the boat was clear for reloading, at which time we would get a new sea pass and be taken back on board. After we got on board lunch was provided for us at Giovanni's Table at no charge. A very quick and easy procedure, to bad we had not been made aware of possible excursions available, we were told later that we could have taken on of the preflight excursions and got dropped off at the ship rather than the airport. Would have been cool to see the ever glades.
We had breakfast every day except the last two in Windjammers. We went to the Rise and Dine Breakfasts with the Dream Works Characters on the last two days. Dinner was in the Main dining room except for formal nights where we decided to go to Windjammers and Johnny Rockets again. The last night of the cruise we and a couple of our friends went to Chops , this was a great meal, with a more than exceptional waiter who had us in stitches all evening. The Red Velvet cake at desert was to die for! We tried the Ice Cream Parlor on the Boardwalk and my daughter had her first Banana Split, we also tried the hotdog stand across from there and enjoyed it.
The first of our cruise ports was Nassau in the Bahamas where we went on the glass bottom boat excursion, and then went for a walk around the shopping area. We really liked this port and the people there, as they were very helpful and not pushy.
