I've finally made it to my last installment of specialty dining from my Vision of the Seas sailing in February. This restaurant was a little difficult at first for me to go back to. I had previously tried Chops on Oasis last year and was not a huge fan. After hearing from other fellow cruisers that it is better on the smaller ships in the fleet, I decided to give it a try. This visit to ...

Dinner at Giovanni’s-Vision OTS
When you sail on Royal Caribbean, when it comes to Italian food, you have two different choices depending on which ship for specialty dining. The options are Giovanni's Table and Jamie's Italian. I have not had the privilege of trying Jamie's yet but I had the delight of trying a different ship's Giovanni's Table. Growing up near a little city called Rome, New York that was chuck full of ...

Hotel Review: Conrad Ft. Lauderdale Beach Hotel
I am so excited to be writing about this resort. This was my first experience at a Conrad by Hilton Hotels. The Conrad line is one of the premium brands for the hotel group and usually commands a pretty penny. I stayed at the Hilton next door to this property in August and decided I want to give the Conrad Ft. Lauderdale Beach a try for my pre cruise stay in November after seeing it. When ...
