From past experience, Rocky (Carnival)is more of a "PAR-TY" cruise with a younger more relaxed crowd and Bullwinkle (RCCL) has an older, ah, more mature, ah, (well lets just say just about everyone was out of college)clientele. Both have their advantages and disadvantages.
Enjoy your cruise.
Labadee is GREAT!!!! It's secluded, you can buy lots of cool local Haitian trinkets, like wood and stone carvings. The beaches are very nice and the barbeque on the beach is good. Snorkeling is not good in Labadee so don't waste your time with that. Other water activities are fun though.
I disagreee with the statement made by NAbbott that Carnival is the more party ship and there is a more mature crowd on RCI. It is my professional observation having worked on Royal Caribbean and then going over to visit Carnival ships that both cruise lines have nearly the same median range of ages. Carnival is becoming no more a "party" ship than RCI. People are on vacation so they live it up whether they are on Carnival or Royal Caribbean International. I will say, however, that Royal Caribbean tends to have a more classy environment onboard, which may keep passengers in a more relaxed mood. But if you want to have fun on RCI there's no stopping anyone.
