Many great memories with my family. Got to interact with some of the other passengers and everybody was nice. I've seen some pretty bad reviews on here. That will not deter me from my next upcoming cruise with Carnival. Going solo. Kind of my late spring break on an older ship of a different class and I can't wait.

Ship tip
Give the rare finds items on the MDR menus. I surprised myself by eating escargot for the first time.
I've heard from others that parts of the city was riddled with bullet holes. Didn't plan on getting off the ship anyway since I came down with a slight cold.....
Went on a tour of the West Bay and did some zip lining and got to hold and pet some monkeys and sloths. Zip lining would've been more fun for me hadn't I got myself spooked. I've been on rollercoaster rides that were pretty high off the ground with no problems but why I had a hard time "hanging on a string" at 30 to 50 feet off the ground? Lol...... first time. May be my last? Still had a blast.
