Review summary
Overall, it was a really great first cruise. The Carnival Paradise staff were friendly and attentive. A big "Thank You" to them for all that they did. The ship was clean and spacious. The entertainment was good. The food was plentiful but somewhat "institutional" at times. We were hoping for a bit more gourmet.
We wouldn't hesitate to cruise Carnival again but will probably try a few other lines first.

Ship tip
If you want to be where the fun is, try the lido deck or Atrium. If you prefer a less crowded atmosphere, the upper decks at the rear of the ship are best.
