Glad everyone is enjoying it!I get so much out of reading everyone's reports and reviews so I'm happy to share our experiences!
We have a Fuji underwater camera. We've had it for over 8 years, got it before our honeymoon in Hawaii. It has various underwater and beach specific settings so it's really great to have on beach vacations. I think one of the seals is starting to loosen since we noticed droplets when we took the battery out to charge so we might be in the market for a new one soon. If they have a new version of this one, we'd probably get it again!Originally Posted by Jen Jen
Yes, you definitely do! It's a great way to see different places, we can do a group trip!

Antigua. We had no plans this day and just walked around the port to check it out, lots of shopping to do if that's your thing, and then we drank our way through the various bars on the ship. LOL. We had a lot of sun the prior day so we took it easy with getting too much. And the plus side of staying on the ship on a port day is you get to enjoy a fairly empty ship!

The above is the view from the bar that the below picture was taken from. Also a great place to eat lunch outside.

The coffee bar was one of our favorite places, will write more in detail about it in the overall ship summary.

We were not as impressed with the martini bar as everyone else seems to be. But the bartenders did do shows and fancy stuff (think Tom Cruise in Cocktail), it was neat.

Loved how green every island was, it made for pretty views.

St Kitts. The day we took it easy and Kathy wanted to scratch her arm off. During our St. Lucia excursion while swimming back to the boat, someone had swam into the rope dividers (which were covered in who knows what), and in turn, that rope bounced back at me and rubbed up my entire arm. I tend to have very sensitive skin (I'm very susceptible to poison ivy and bug bites), and was left with lovely itchy markings up my entire arm. We went to medical and she said not to worry and gave me pills for the itchiness. I'm sparing you all pictures but it was not fun but I wasn't going to let it affect our vacation.

We did walk into the casino on St. Kitts to see the game selections but didn't play. It was everything you'd see in our casinos, 88 Fortunes, lots of the newer Ainsworth, China Shores, etc.

We decided to hit the sun deck and watch a movie from a cabana. It was awesome, we got sun on our lower halves (I wanted to keep my arm out of the sun), and got to enjoy some outdoor peace and quiet. The screen was amazing and the sound quality better than we've seen in any outdoor movie venues on other ships or elsewhere. It was a great way to spend an afternoon and just relax. The loungers were SO comfortable and seemed brand new.

St Thomas, our last day. We were originally scheduled to go on another snorkeling and beach excursion but with how bad my arm was feeling, Adam thought it best to to tempt fate and head back into the water for me to get some other ailment, so we cancelled (thankfully without penalty!). We spent the day getting plenty of sun and enjoying an empty ship. We watched another movie, moved to the loungers by the pool for lunch, and moved to the top deck loungers in the early afternoon. It was great and we got our fill of the sun for a little while.
There was also plenty of stops for refreshments.

St. Thomas was the first island, other than Puerto Rico, that we visited that had tremendous hurricane damage (most of the others were out of the path of the storms). Many of the shops were still boarded up and you could see boats sunken in the water and washed up on shore. It was sad to see the destruction everywhere.

Next post will be summary of restaurants, food porn, reviews of shows and staff, and overall thoughts. Hoping to get to it tonight.

I absolutely loved Antigua. It was my favorite of all the islands we visited on our 11 day cruise last year. If you go back, make sure to do a catamaran excursion that takes you snorkeling, swimming with sea turtles, and then to a beach. It had the nicest beach of any Caribbean island I’ve been too and crystal clear blue water. I loved it. Loving this report and it’s getting me pumped for my cruise! Miss you guys and hope to see you this spring in LV! I’m down for a group cruise too as DVan mentioned anytime!
