Yes, it was that EXACT ship I have purchased them at the pursers desk, three times to date.

They were the same price.

Wow, since they are the same price, it's definitely better to buy them onboard the ship and not have to stand in line once in Bermuda!

I had no idea and I would bet that many don't! I wish I knew this last year Oh well, I'll know for the future, thanks

Hi travelmom,

Welcome back from your cruise! I'm glad you were able to take advantage of this as I had no idea about it!
