Stephen and I went on our very first cruise. Nana and Papa came to watch the boys so we could go alone. It was a four night Royal Caribbean cruise with one day in Cozumel. We were really impressed with so many things. With this being our first cruise we didn't know what to expect. The food was amazing. We ate in the dining room for almost every meal and just stopped by the buffet for snacks and extra dessert if we wanted some. Stephen got his nightly ice cream cone in the buffet. The ship was very clean and we loved having a balcony room.
In Cozumel we spent just about 15 minutes walking around until we found a taxi that took us to a little beach where we relaxed the rest of the day. Stephen did a little bit of snorkeling, we had lunch brought to us at our chairs, and the weather was perfect for reading and relaxing all day. On our way back to the ship we found some vanilla (in the glass bottle) which we were told by some dinner friends on the ship that was the most incredible vanilla we'd ever find. So far the vanilla has not been a disappointment.
Dressing up for the dining room was really fun. Everyone was very classy all of the time and we only shared our huge dining room table with one other couple from Canada that currently was living in the states to be closer to their grandchildren. There weren't too many kids on the ship which was awesome. We didn't go to many shows but didn't feel like we missed out on anything. We spent most of our days reading in the sun or shade, only stopping to take a nap in our room or go eat in the dining room. It was so relaxing and just what we needed!
My only complaint was being motion sick and morning sick the whole time and not being able to get into the hot tub. I felt pretty miserable the whole time but it was manageable until the last day on the ship when the weather was bad and the ship was just rocking back and forth constantly.
