Review summary

This is our 3rd Carnival in the past 3 years. Food is good but menu does not change. Same menu from the past 3 years from 3 separate ships. This is a much older boat and it shows, really needs to be updated. We had a good time at our ports of call. It was a nice get away at the last minute.
