We decided on….
Southern Caribbean on Serenade of the Seas again to Aruba, Curacao, St. Kitts & St. Thomas
Serenade Info & Itinerary Info
********************************************************************************
We went on the Serenade of the Seas last summer.
We got the best deal EVER! $214 per person in a hump balcony room.
We were hurricane dodging. One had just gone through PR just before we got there and it was quite humid!
We ended up having rather perfect weather though.
**********************************************************************************************
We went to Curacao, Aruba, Dominica & St. Thomas.
We took a trolley tour in Curacao where our trolley broke down and it was HOT!
In Aruba we took the public bus over to the main beach/resort area, used Hyatt’s floats and chairs and relaxed.
It had rained that morning, but after lunch it was perfect.
We met a cute Canadian couple on their honeymoon on the bus too and adventured over to the beach with them.
What’s funny is that we ran into them everywhere. They were even on our flight back to DFW after the cruise.
Neways, we did the boiling lake and falls tour in Dominica.
We got soaked! BUT it was sooooooo worth it!
The roads are SUPER SCARY though. But we made it alive thankfully.
We went to the aquarium & Magens Bay in St. Thomas. We we’re pretty pooped by this time.
****************************************************************************************************
One thing we didn’t like about this itinerary was that there were only 2 sea days and none the last day of the cruise.
You really do need a sea day at the end so that you can recoup and relax.
This time we’ll be sailing to Aruba & Curacao at the end of the week which means our last day will be a sea day.
I found this really cute video, of the other itinerary: [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_s_IOtMBh8&w=560&h=345]
