Great weather, great service, and great friends! Left Galv on time. Ship is nice with a really good layout. Next morning went to pool. BTW - the rolled up towels in pool chairs are put there by RC -- we thought they were being "held". We got Ultimate drink packages. Paid off for us in coffee & mixed drinks. Roatan - went to Tabyana Beach for snorkeling - was really great! Careful of shallow coral - it will cut - found out the hard way. Will & Levon watched our area so that we could go in & out of the water at will without worrying about our belongings. Yolanda "Yo" was our waitress. Will, Levon & Yo are the GREATEST & earned their tips!!!! BTW-have a drink called Monkey LaLa!!!! Snorkeling was great - go out with guides to the deeper water but don,t miss the "the fishbowl" on the left edge of beach by the rocks! In Belize we went to Barrier Reef Snorkel & Starfish Island - excellent! We were on boat called Angel Ray - guides were great - saw lots of fish, stingrays, lobsters, puffer fish, held starfish, conchs, and a lot of coral. While you are out away from land the water is about 6-15 ft deep where we snorkeled (intermediate group). Starfish Island has lounge chairs, large covered bar, covered tables, buffet lunch, burgers & nachos. They have a small gift shop with a few thirts, magnets, shells, etc but that was good since we did not have time to tender to shore. Bathrooms on island are nice. This excursion left from ship on private boat to snorkel site & then to Starfish Island & then back to ship. About 4+ hours all together. In Cozymel - went to Playa Mia. They have really built on & improved property. Great time. Took taxi into downtown Cozumel to UltraJewels for official Pandora charms. They had pretty good selection even with other cruisers having bought a lot already. Really good trip.

One not so good thing on ship - dining room does not allow shorts - we 'dress' for work - vacations are all casual -- RCCL needs to find a way to accommodate those guests that prefer casual dress but don't want to be pushed to Windjammer! EXCELLENT things on Navigator - Chops & Sabor - Sabor is Mexican food and it is great- if you get the chance - try it out - it is worth it!! Schooner bar is great as is the waiter there named Francesco --- excellent!!!!!!

One last tip - if interested in Anything related to Starfish Island on Belize excursions - buy them soon as it sells out quickly.
