The Ship and service were excellent.
The only complaint was the dining room food was very bland and I spent most meals at the buffet or the Tuscan Speciality restaurant.
Maybe that is their secret plan...anyways here are a few photos I took of our busiest ship days.
ENJOY!!!
Port Everglades on Dec 5th...
St. Thomas on Dec 8th...
As far as the proximity, here is a picture that shows the actual space that the Freedom had to work with.
The second time there were 5 ships in port, Charlotte Amalie was insane, we took one look (picture the local mall on Black Friday) and turned around and went back to the ship.
Great pictures btw.
Does anyone know if Banana island is still for sale ?

I agree, especially with St. Thomas' really busy days being Tuesday and Wednesday because of the distance the Florida based liners have to travel. (I believe all 6 ships on this day were based in Florida). They would have 5 ships on Wednesday day and sometimes 0 ships on Thursday so there is little balance even in the busy winter season.
I dont know about banana island.
There are photos on HAL'S Blog showing the 2 ships at CB.
The weather was terrible that day - poured rain all day, in fact it rained in Grand Turk and Puerto Rico.
We had an absolutely gorgeous day at Half Moon Cay.

Yes, we had a nice day sailing out. Did you see me waving from my balcony?
