What an AWESOME first cruise

My favorite part of the cruise was the staff.  The week started with the very talented and friendly Monica aka Moneyca"  On the first night they had the pub crawl where at each stop the taught a dance step that they would be using all during the week at different times.  Being a 51 year old with two big left feet Monica was very encouraging and patient in helping me get the steps down and reassuring me that the goal was to have fun.  It started my cruise off with a great start.  The next morning I went to the Daily Show with Leigh the cruise director.  That was very informative and fun to watch after that I stayed to play bingo and Monica my dance partner from the night before was the Bingo caller "Moneyca". They asked when you got down to only on ball needed for Bingo you stand-up.  When I stood up she remembered my name and called me by it.  Some how I and 3 other all called bingo and it was a lot of fun.  The laughs and jokes told while playing was very enjoyable and uplifting.  That afternoon the Hairy Man contest was held and was a lot of fun and something that I will never forget.   I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know Leigh the cruise director.  He was a lot of fun and delivered a lot of energy during the different events.  There was never a shortage of activities between trivia, Bingo, Music, Shows, Dancing, Sports court.  Vinnie the manager of the Limelight lounge was great and the comedians where very entertaining.  When I went to Guest Services I met a wonderful charming lady named Vesna She was very helpful and when ever I walked by on the way to show always said hello with a warm and caring smile.  Vera our cabin steward was great and every time she saw me in the hallway would always ask if there was anything that we needed and asked if Lorrie my wife was having a good time as well.  I met so many people on the ship and feel that the 5 members of the crew that I have mentioned I will consider friends for years to come along with several other guest that I traded contact info with I will cherish keeping in contact with.   All in all I would rate the cruise higher than 5 stars if I could I am already planning my return trip.  Thank you again to Monica, Leigh, Vinnie, Will, Vesna, Vera, April, Kit Kat, and the rest of the crew for a wonderful vacation.
