CRUISE DETAILS:
This is NOT a group cruise, just Augie & I and our dear friends once again! This will be our 6th cruise together (our 5th is the ESCAPE in 2016).
The Harmony of the Seas is the newest sister ship of the Oasis of the Seas class. It just came out in Winter 2015. It is bigger & newer and sounds amazing!
We LOVED the Oasis of the Seas so much that we booked this reservation on board using the Next Cruise option for our 2017 cruise.
The itinerary is the SAME as the Oasis of the Seas (on purpose). WE LOVED those ports and had a wonderful time at all of them.
In Labadee, I want to go on the longest ZIP LINE that drops you off in the water
In Jamaica, I want to go back on the JAMACIAN BOBSLED & ZIP LINE
In Cozumel, I want to go back to CHACHOBAN and SCUBA dive, and do all of the other activities available there (Tequilla tasting, sea lion show, scuba diving, and just having fun). The trips before we did Xelha & took a Mexican cooking class & loved both of those adventures too!
Check out our Oasis of the Seas adventure.
We now have cabins right over the Aqua Theater- our 4 balconies are adjoining . Last month we were able to secure a 4th cabin right next to us. Welcome Kristi & Rob! So glad you can join us! The Harmony of the Seas is now the biggest ship that Royal Caribbean makes so far. Again, it is a floating "All inclusive".
There are just a few cabins left overlooking Boardwalk. They are scattered over different decks, but amazing they are still available. Hoping to get one or two more friends to join us!!
Jenny's favorite show is GREASE, and it is playing on-board.They have the PERFECT storm for the kids (3 amazing slides)
They have zip lining on deck
They have the ice-skating show & then free skating for passengers
Then there is CENTRAL PARK where we go for wonderful breakfasts & unbelievable fresh salads.. while the birds are flying around.
Then there is BOARDWALK.. where our dear TJAY likes to ride every time it is open. Then there is the ROCK CLIMBING wall.. Jenny has mastered that pretty well

On deck 9 where we are located, directly over the Boardwalk & Aqua theater, guess what else they do? ZIPLINE. It is 82 feet across the entire boardwalk area. I didn't do it on the Oasis, but "Game ON' now!
The other thing that we are close to is the 2 rock climbing walls!!! They are 43 feet high.
They also show movies on two big screens they use at the Aqua theater.
Think we put a lot of thought into where we wanted our cabin to be?? We overlook the carousel too! Boardwalk still have "Johnny Rockets", and new carnival games for fun. We spent a lot of time there on the Oasis.
|
The Harmony of the Seas has the "Perfect Storm". Typhoon, Cyclone & Supercell are their names and they all can take you on a wet & wild ride!!
The ultimate Abyss, is the tallest slide at sea.. Two Flowrider surf simulators, 2 rock-climing walls, zip line 9 decks high, full size basketball, ice-skating rink, three multi-story waterslide!!!
|
They also have two Flowrider Surf Simulators -- that looked scary, so we didn't try that last time but who knows!!
|
Splash Away Bay for the youngsters.. T Jay is big now so I am not sure we will be there!
|
WONDERLAND.. Venture "down the rabbit hole" an elaborate dreamscape of never-before-seen fare at the Wonderland Imaginative Cuisine - new on the Harmony
|
The Beautiful Central park Neighborhood -
We loved it there. Had lunch - fresh salads, fruits and amazing atmosphere!
|
Royal Promenade
We never gained a pound a any other cruise before until the Oasis of the Seas.. They have a free pizza place, Sorrento's. Really good, but the worse was the free PEATS coffee and the most amazing desserts ever! Every evening, Augie & I would grab a stack of cookies for the Kids, and we would grab "cheesecake on a stick". Those were deadly!!! Shopping is great on the promenade.. great shops, always something going on!
|
The Broadway play, GREASE, is also playing. This is Jenny's favorite show so I am sure we are going to see it more than once! They also have a 3-D movie theater. How cool is that! I love movie theaters. That is one of the thing I enjoyed so much on Disney cruises.
