Summary. It was an interesting cruise. I enjoyed visiting the islands, the ship was great. Note: I didn't find the ship rocked any more than one normally would . I`m not a Bert Stratton fan, but he was on board and his shows seemed well attended. If you are interested in pictures, go to www.fotki.com/ggrrrr . It is the top album, Southern Caribbean.

Saturday I flew into San Juan a day early. My connection was out of Philadelphia at 11:45am. the airline changed the plane and ended up having 20 more passengers than seats. They asked for volunteers to catch the 6:45pm flight later in the day. They were giving round trip flights anywhere in Canada, U.S., or Caribbean. It seemed like they had enough, so I boarded. At that point they asked for 1 more volunteer, so I did. Once I had my flight voucher, I asked to go standby on the 1:45pm flight and got on! I arrived only 2 hours later than planned and had a free flight.

I stayed at the Radisson Ambassador in the Condado area. I'd booked it through a Priceline bid. It was a nice hotel and room. It had a good restaurant. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Check-in was quick. I walked around the area, its only about a block from the ocean. I'd stay here again. Read more
