Review summary

1) ship presentation, cleanliness, and space is good. 2)Staffs from stateroom to dinning room were exceptionaly wonderful. 3)Variety of food is good. Lasty, 2 things we would like to see change is more Asian dishes and more interesting activities while At Sea. We observed and heard that many, like us, who didn't care for Bingo or trying to guess songs or movies, found ourselves walking around trying to kill time. We went to a few of those activities, but it was pretty dull.

Ports of call

Ensenada, Mexico

We toured the town and did horse back riding. The horse back riding was good-but people seemed to hurry us along so they could get ready for the next tourists. Don't know about those soy tacos that they offered though. The walk around the neighborhood and visits of shops and street vendors reminded me of the flea market. Many are selling the same things. Don't be shocked to see young children trying to sell you candies or hand-made jewelry.
Don't Miss: Tour the park near downtown, ask the hostess about it-you'll get some education out of it

Catalina Island, California

The only interesting shop was the sun shop. The rest reminded me of a mall. Most weren't open by 10am anyway. Driving a golf cart to see the city seemed interesting, but it's a 2hrs minimum and it's $40/hr.
Don't Miss: none

Pros: courteous staffs, John-comedy, dinning experience, food, and clean room

Cons: lack of interesting activities while At Sea

Recommends Carnival Paradise? Yes!
