It's been a while... but I just found this section. My wife & I took the Allure of the Seas for our honeymoon. It was a huge, but absolutely amazing ship and cruise! We had an outdoor view balcony room, which was also amazing.
We left out of Port Everglades / Fort Lauderdale. It was cool pulling out of port, we had an armed escort and all the locals were outside hootin' and holler'in when we pulled out of port. It was a cool sight to see everyone out there.
The only place we did shore excursions was Nassau Bahama's where we went on a glass bottom boat, which was pretty cool. We had other plans in St. Thomas and St. Maarten. The coolest thing about the boat tour was probably seeing out own ship from out on the water - the thing is massive.
To me, as a new cruiser, it was important to have the balcony room. There were a couple nights where I felt a little woozy indoors inside the ship, but felt absolutely fine once I could "right myself" with the world looking out our window/balcony and also getting fresh air outside was nice. We also got to see other ships and ocean going vessels that I would have never seen indoors - even other cruise ships
Hope you enjoy this mini-interactive write up.
