Carnival Valor
Sail date: September 24, 2006
This was my first cruise, and I have to say I expected more--will try a different cruise line next time. The ship is new and big, but the pool areas are small, and close too early, the primary form of sea day entertainment was bingo, and the evening shows were dull, with the exception of the 80's night. We did have excellent service from our cabin steward and wait staff. On sea days the cruise director and his assistant made constant, loud public announcements about activites (usually bingo), and really made it difficult to relax on those days.
