Review summary
Lovely ship that ran smoothly. Entertainment was good and one night it was most creative with moving belts, backgrounds and more moving stage parts - impressive. A great comedian in JR Brow, whose humor is his lines and even singing; he plays a good guitar surprisingly. Food was average but a lively crowd on the ship made it a fun 5 days; did I mention a delay to fog? Yep, we lost 1.5 days due to fog in Galveston. THAT was disappointing. I still don't understand with GPS, advanced radar on ship and shore (?) why Carnival and other ships headed into Galveston seemed as stranded as Columbus may have been from time to time. Once onboard all went smooth.
