They had trouble disembarking everyone from the week before. Didn't start letting us on until just about 12:30.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

It was hard to relax with all the pushy vendors. After our river rafting excursion we went back on the ship early.

It was quite good

We had a good time on the cruise. Couldn’t get in the piano bar not even one time. The room is way too small. Don’t bother getting the drink package. There isn’t any alcohol in the drinks.

Wonderful Caribbean Cruise
