Freeport is a huge port, you will need transportation from the dock by the ship to wherever you want to go on the island. (Otherwise you'll just be wandering around a big industrial seaport.)

Lots of places to see in the Bahamas though.

Enjoy your trip!
Yes, and he will have a whole 8 hours to explore!

Not sure if this a issue anymore with the jet propulsion steering but I remember a cruise about 10 years ago where we had a cabin at the rear of the ship...when we left port in the morning, the vibrations from the engines/screws at the back when the ship was leaving the dock was not very good if you were hung over...

I've been on a cruise 2 times. Royal Carribean and Princess.

All the staff is Philliapeno and Asian. When I first went on my first cruise with my family, I was surprised I was like wtf is this and then someone explained to me that they ONLY hire people that need work in the third world countries, so made a lot of sense. 10/10 they are all friendly.

They throw them over if their not.

Cruise tips:

Always start watching Tom Cruise in Risky Business or Top Gun. After that, he started getting a little too full of himself. The Mission Impossible movies weren't bad, but by that time he's wrestling with his sexuality and believes alien spirits are causing mental illness.
