Review summary

All in all, it was a great cruise.  But I was extremely disappointed that the itinerary was changed due to age of the ship, etc.  We ended up going to Cozumel and Costa Maya.  I had my heart set on Roatan and Belize.  We were given a $50 in ship credit and we used it for pictures.

 

I did the Groove for St. Jude.  I thought it would be more than just one song... but it was still fun and for a good cause.

 

Enjoyed Brandon --the cruise director.  The staff are really hard-working and friendly.

 

It would be great if Carnival had more group fitness classes such as Zumba --probably a copyright issue--but do something similar.

 

Food was good.  It was a nice surprise to find chocolate covered strawberries and sparking wine on our bed one evening--in celebration of our anniversary.
