We arrived at the San Juan, Puerto Rico airport at about 10am and caught a taxi to the ship. The paperwork all said that we couldn't board until 2pm, but we were on board, eating lunch and making new friends by 1:00 pm.
Here are our first friends of the cruise: Yamari and Ashley. Yamari's family (27 people) were on the cruise to celebrate her quince (15th birthday). They are from Puerto Rico. We saw their family many times throughout the week and absolutely loved seeing them and exchanging emails.
Our suitcases were delivered to our cabin by 3:00pm which is unheard of, but we were not complaining a single bit. We unpacked and set up our stuff.
The best cruise packing idea I got off the internet was for this shoe organizer. You hang it on the inside of the bathroom door in your cabin and put your toiletries in it. It was the best $5 investment and saved a lot of time searching for brushes, toothpas
te, hair gel, etc.
After unpacking we decided to head down to the Royal Promenade for a little walk. Of course, they had the Cafe Promenade open so we stopped by for a little dessert. That's where we met Yuri, from Peru. I didn't realize before that the sandwiches, scones, pizza and desserts at the Cafe Promenade were included in our cruise. I thought you had to pay extra for them. Needless to say, we stopped by many times during the week to visit Yuri and have a little dessert.
