What a change to a place!
I wasn't going to bother to get off the ship today but I'm glad I did.
The last time we were in Labadee was about ten years ago, the difference is amazing.
From a bit of a run down island, with a bit of a shack and a few benches.
RCI have transformed it into a beautiful resort, with a number of wonderful beaches and relaxing woodland walks.
Add that to water sports and zip wires, there is something for everyone.Read more

We docked at Royal Caribbean’s Private Destination in Labadee, Haiti. We watched in amazement how they disembarked 6700 passengers and tons of provisions quickly.
Royal Caribbean has a 99 year lease with the government of Haiti and maintains all of the facilities for their cruise ships. It consists of gorgeous beaches, zip lines, jet skis, parasailing and of course food and drink.
We did an historic walking tour with a native Haitian around the entire complex. He pointed out various sights and explained the history of his country.Read more

What a glorious day! Labadee is a peninsula leased by Royal Caribbean. It has beaches, water park, jet skis, snorkel trips, etc.

We went to Columbus Cove with Darla and Rick-, and did the beach. A nice helper got chairs for us, and after hanging out for awhile, we hit the water. I'm still buoyant- had a lovely time floating and bobbing in the water. I eventually felt chilly, so got out, warmed up, and enjoyed the pretty some more before heading back to the ship.

Dinner was Coconut shrimp, lamb shank, and profiteroles. W had French onion soup, prime rib, and profiteroles.

The only down to the day, both VT basketball teams got beat in the big dance.

But then we came back from dinner to this cute creature hanging from our ceiling!Read more
