Just rubbing it in! (Caribbean :) )
 
Going to all these exotic islands who's names I cannot pronounce from San Juan, Puerto Rico, on the Brilliance of the Seas in January.

And?

Dayenu Aug 27th, 2012 02:53 PM

And still going :)

And got a hotel room for pre-cruise.

And will search each port.

And flights...

And in january. While we are freezing our little tushed off. :D

BTW in SJ, if you plan to stay there a few days try a restaurant called Dragonfly in old SJ on Fortaleeza st. I think you'll like it. :-)

Sorry :( sushi is not for us.

We are staying in Milano, on TA their breakfast is recommended - on the roof. Sounds interesting.

I need to figure out how to reserve the evening shows, never been on a cruise that requires that - Brilliance of the Seas.

While I was eying Celebrity, they sold out the cabins I'd like, and I don't want to risk it to see if anything opens after the final payment. So, RCI.

Actually is a Latin-Asian fusion place, not Japanese. It really good.

Dayenu Aug 28th, 2012 11:58 AM

I'll mark it on the map, thanks, Larry!

Cool!

Copy the names of the ports from your travel agent or Royal Caribbean and rub it in :) :).

Dayenu Sep 5th, 2012 03:23 PM

With pleasure :)

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

St. Maarten, Netherlands Antilles

Basseterre, St Kitts

Pointe-a-Pitre, Guadeloupe

Bridgetown, Barbados

Nice:). I have never been to BVI, or St. Kitts or Guadeloupe. Have a ball, we might have 20 inches of snow in the DMV.

jacketwatch Sep 6th, 2012 05:34 AM

Nice ports!!

BTW what is the DMV?

Dayenu Sep 6th, 2012 09:51 AM

Department of Motor Vehicles :)

Or may be DC - Maryland - Virginia area?

MissGreen Sep 7th, 2012 02:43 AM

Lucky you!

tch912 Sep 9th, 2012 09:53 AM

No the DMV is DC, Maryland and Virginia. A few winters ago we got more than 89 inches of snow in the winter with one storm dumping more than 25 inches. When I am snowed in I will think about being on a cruise in warm or hot Caribbean sea.

D, make sure you visit Orient Beach in St. Maartena and you can bare your tushi while the rest of us are freezing it off. IMHO, it's always the people who SHOULDN'T be nude who are naked on the beach, but c'est la vie (or c'est la dreck!)

In Barbados, check out Harrison Caves, it's deep inside the ground and it was part of an all day island tour we took. Thought it was fascinating.

Dayenu Sep 20th, 2012 01:56 PM

Thank you! I've started a slow (for now) planning...

travelenthusiast Sep 25th, 2012 03:15 PM

Have fun! Your trip sounds fun. We'd like to go to St Kitt's someday. Tortola is on my list too. I was trying to convince my family to go on another cruise, but I haven't been successful. Please write a trip report when you get back. I'd like to hear you reviews of the ports.

Dayenu Sep 26th, 2012 09:05 AM

I always post reviews :)

UGH, I made air reservations with American :( Just hope it will all boil over by January :(
