My wife and I live in Michigan and this was the 18th Cruise for me and 19th for her. We have sailed on Princess, Celebrity, Carnival, NCL, and Disney in the past and this was our 6th on Royal Caribbean.

This was our Second Cruise on the Jewel of the Seas having done the Baltics on her in the Summer of 2007 which we really enjoyed so thought we would get reaquainted with her on this 10 Day Repositioning Cruise from Boston to Miami via the Eastern and Southern Caribbean.

The Cruise Critic Group on this Cruise was huge with over 200 people on our Roll Call and also over 200 Registered for the RCI Meet and Mingle. Many on this group had sailed on the Jewel before and call themselves the Royal Jewel. We had a lot of activities planned including a four round Putt Putt Tourney, a Slot Pull Tourney, Gift Exchange at the M&M, and a Texas Hold Em Tourney as well as Sail Away and a Farewell Luncheon the last day at Sea.
