You won't be over whelmed. It's broken up in nice areas. Some night clubs, you don't have to drink alcohol, they have non alcoholic drinks. Get the lava flow, it's coconut based, with a river of strawberry syrup running through it. It does cost extra.
That's a mistake right there. Whoops, my apology's.

By upcharge do you mean for stuff that isn't on the established menu for the cruise. For example, they don't have prime rib on the menu for that meal and you want prime rib making it a special order? Or maybe a menu that has the standard items but also lists other entrees that cost extra? That is how I would envision it happening and even understand why it would be done that way on either example.
Nope, Upcharge as in dishes specifically in the menu that actually cost money on top of the "all included" fee on the cruise.

Example, a normal upcharge would be PALO. Where you pay a fee and you enter to eat at Palo's.

But on Royal Caribbean seems different. Oasis has like 4-5 upcharge areas and others that are partially subcharge.

Considering how many online pages say that cruises want to sneak as much as possible to make you purchase.. Id say its more probably to see the upcharge dishes right next to the free ones (but with a small marking that shows its upcharge).

Will have to search more and see how it looks.

We would at most eat in one deluxe restaurant at much once in a cruise. (Loved Palo's)

Let me find them, and I'll post. I'll be back later with those.
Thank you!

Schooner bar, they play trivia games here at the times posted on the daily paper delivered to your room the night before. So you can plan your day if you want. At night this turns into a piano bar, and you get make a request and if the pianist knows it, they will play it.

Belly flop contest. You will get wet watching this from the first three rows. This activity is free, or it was as of 2014.IMG_2086 (2).JPG

Ice skating show. Also free. You can also ice skate at the rink during some days, when the skaters aren't practicing. That's free too.IMG_0609 (3).jpg IMG_0609 (3).jpg Dinner dessert in the main dining room.IMG_0430 (2).jpg Me with one of the bar servers, at the 60's party. They have a floating bar that goes up and down in the promenade. He was the server there.IMG_0735 (4).jpg

The lava flow drink I was telling you about.
Really nice looking!

Oh joy not! My dh was supposed to have Saturday off now he's working and it's another 5am start. I'm keeping the bigger kid to get my yard and deck cleaned up. My MIL only needs some weeding and planting done, my grass needs mowing and I have some heavy planters that need to get moved. Just when I think everything around here is going to be all caught up something always happens:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

Ha the smallest airport I've ever been to is not even there any more.:( No place to eat at all but walking distance to Hershey park so I guess that made up for the lack of dining options:joyfull:

Our current airport is pretty large compared to the old one. After Bergstrom Air Force Base here was closed in '93, they moved the new airport to that site. The old site became a major development, and the only thing that wasn't torn down was the control tower.
Have a lot of great memories from that old airport, but, we now also have a lot of great memories from the new one, as well. :)

nice photos!
I suppose not many has changed, I read that some lounges were moved and they added the Quantum of the Seas technology on board.
Apart from that, nothing much.

Thank you for sharing I wish I could get my dh on a cruise they look like so much fun!
We are already thinking about taking another one, on this size of ship. You can't even feel the ship turning around when taking off. The 4 and 5th floors are very stable. As are most floors. Don't go below 4 though, as those seem to be more moldy. From being at water level. 6 and 7 are what we request. We went on a much smaller ship. I could feel it moving, especially in heavy seas. I liked it , it was like being rocked to sleep at night. When I went to bed at night on this size of ship, I was disappointed that I couldn't feel anything. You can feel a little when taking a shower. That's kind of weird to me. But, it isn't bad at all.
