Review summary

Would cruise Carnival again, experience was actually better than either of us expected. First time on Carnival with family. The food was better than expected and the activities were enough to keep us entertained.

Easy considering over 4000 people were getting on the "Magic" at the same time.

Ate in the Northern Lights Dinnering Room, early setting at table 722. The waiters in our section were very good and did an excellent job considering all the people they had to wait on. Food was better than we expected. Well prepared and good variety.
