The MDR and buffet seemed to have most of the same stuff everyday, it was pretty bland and boring. Definitely needs some Asian cuisine!

Limelight lounge is very small and sound system needs to be updated

This was my very first cruise which made me fall in love with cruises so much that I would whether book a cruise than go to Disney world. I hope to go back on Elation before they scrap it since now there only 2 fantasy class ships left.
