Review summary

Family cruise, my wife and me, her parents , her dads birthday 90 year old retired marine, and wife's sister and her boy friend. Great time with them all. Went to the military honor gathering onboard and it was great, very emotional for alot of them.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Embarkation was quick enough, though I think the security is a little to restricted. I understand safety on board, but I accidentally had my fathers small pocket knife in my pocket (it's there 24/7 since he passed away 8 years ago), and they confiscated it. Now I know it's all about security, but asoon as I go to the dinning room they are going to give me a big steak knife 5 times bigger than my little pocket knife and I could walk right out of the dining room with it. So what's the point . Oh buy the way they also took my small scissors that I use to trim my beard with. If you saw my pictures do I look that dangerous. The rest of the embarkation went very smoothly.
