  • Last Day – International Food Festival

    Well today is the last day of our 7-night Royal Caribbean Cruise vacation onboard the Liberty of the Seas. It is also a day at sea. I woke to a very nice surprise….coffee and donuts in our room (Kevin woke up early and brought it back to the room).  Kevin then said that they were…

  • Labadee or Labadon’t
