Cruise # 28- "Southern Caribbean" Group Cruise onboard Carnival Freedom- September, 2012

We're not huge Carnival Cruise fans (and we're even less so after this sailing as we found too many line ups, non quality food, not up to par service and they cater to the loud/party crowds) but we couldn't resist joining a group of family and friends who had already booked this Cruise to Celebrate Shawn's Mom's 65th birthday. No matter what we think of the Cruiseline, it's always nice to Cruise with a great group of people which is what we did with 20 of our family & friends for 8 nights in the Southern Caribbean.

Santa Domingo is the nearest major city from La Romana, about 1.5 hours away, and many people enjoy a tour to there but for those of you staying local head to the city's market where there's tons of vendors offering their local goods and where you can do a little bartering. :-)
