This itinerary is particularly well Salés Representative FAITH WIITT k \ Water activities abound on this cruise... great snorkeling and scuba in Cozumel and Grand Cayman (I did two dives in the Cayman‘s â€" an 80â€"foot Cayman wall dive and a reef dive off Seven Mile Beach â€" at $58, great value). suited to those vacationers looking for a relaxing cruise, some shopâ€" ping, a little touring (the Mayan ruins at Tulum are the highlight), and lots of beach and water activiâ€" ties. Visit ‘Stingray City‘ in Grand Cayman (feeding a school of 100 stingrays swimming all around you). On Cayman, while I was divâ€" ing, Heather did an Island tour, mailed postcards from ‘Hell‘ (a Â¥HOLIDAYS _/ SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1993 PAGE 14 place named for unusual rock forâ€" mations), and toured the ‘Turtle In Jamaica, climb Dunn‘s River Falls or go rafting on a 30â€"foot bamboo river raft on Martha Brae River. And they saved some of the best for our last day at Coco Cay, their private island in the Bahamas. Beautiful extensive beaches, a great BBQ for lunch, walking trails or along the beaches, the usual beach sports, and some of the best snorkeâ€" ling in the Caribbean... completed a great vacation. We spent over three hours snorkeling on Coco Cay in 10 to 30 feet of water over a fantastic reef with thousands of colorful tropical f "CRUISE g L‘flllls‘i sc vmmrs ) NIGHT‘ Holiday Inn €, Obakville fish. It was like floating on top of our own giant aquarium. For about $1,750 per person â€" with outside cabin accommodations â€" you may cruise on the "Majesty of the Seas", the fabulous addition to the Royal Caribbean fleet sailing year round from Miami to the westâ€" ern Caribbean! Submitted by Bob Kerby, Cruise Holidays, 338â€"2077. Arriving at the pier on Sunday before departure, you are impressed by the huge beautiful ship that greets you. Once inside, the impression conâ€" tinues and grows. Brass, glass, and marble highlights have been used extensively throughout the public areas of the ship to give it a feeling of warmth and openness. The Centrum is a 5â€"storey central core of the ship that most services â€" shopping, entertainment, and restauâ€" rants â€" flow from. Another feature we enjoyed was the location of the buffetâ€"style restaurant. Usually located aft on most ships, the Windjammer Cafe was located forward on the Sun Deck with airâ€"conditioned glass enclosed eating areas overlooking the bow of the ship, or openâ€"air seating on the Sun Deck next to live entertainment and adjacent to the pool areas. The food was great with an excellent variety of menus that never seemed to stop. Top quality entertainment (some shows voted the best in the Caribbean) was offered in seven different showâ€" rooms and lounges. One great design characteristic of this ship is having all passenger cabins of the six lower decks locatâ€" ed on the forward half of the ship, thereby, eliminating noise from the engine room and from the showâ€" rooms. The champagne bar on the Promenade Deck is not to be missed. A dozen 8â€"ft. high carved and etched glass panels decorated this room. And before dinner, chamâ€" pagne by the glass (from $5/glass) with complimentary hors d‘oeuvres is the grand way to celebrate your cruise. 7â€"9 p.m. RSVP Shirley f
