Same here but we had a delay getting on and a lot of aggravation. Sadly some rude people pushing trying to get on the ship.

You didn’t get off the ship because of a delay due to FOG = river in Jacksonville closed.

Cruise with Friends!

This was a great cruise for my wife and I we enjoyed the food, activities, and ports of call. We went with another couple who had cruised before and they enjoyed it as well. the wait staff at dinner were all awesome and antentive. the bar staff were slow.
