Waiters and food in the Imagination dining Room were great. "Showtime" by the waiters was so much fun.

Chris, the Cruise Director had the the entire Atrium clapping and having fun. He was even walking on the bar! The Bahamian steel drummer set the mood on our way to dinner.

Our refrigerator didn't work on arrival, but it was promptly fixed while we were out of the room.

Don't be in a hurry to disembark; it takes quite a while to get through customs.
