July 18th 2009 Independence of the seas

[karen1512]

Going on the Independence of the seas on July 18th 2009. I have an 11yr old girl and 14yr old boy. Does anyone know the site they can go on to chat to other future cruisers? Also can anyone advise me on what we can all wear in the dining rooms? Can they wear smart shorts? Is it as formal as it reads? Any other info or pics would be much appreciated.

Hi Karen1512, welcome to Cruise-Chat. Not sure what website you are referencing. Shorts are not allowed in the dining room for the evening meal. You can always dine in the buffet area if you prefer not dressing for dinner. If you'll look a little further down the main page, there is a FAQ section. There is a post there with links for the cruise line requirements for clothing. Best wishes for your upcoming cruise, and once again, welcome aboard!
