Cabin was nice and perfect size for the two of us. I really appreciated the balcony!

Ship tip

The dinner in the main dinning room is really good and the wait staff is very attentive. You have to allow time, you cannot be in a hurry.

In 310 days we will be on the Explorer for our 25th Anniversary! We splurged and booked a Grand Suite. I just recently beat breast cancer and just had my 3 surgery last Friday. Almost done with reconstruction. I think we deserved to splurge for this one. Going on Oasis in 88 days for my 50th Birthday! I love Royal Caribbean!
