Review summary

The trip to Baltimore was nice. Check in outside went smoothly, luggage and parking. The lines were long to go thru the metal detectors and the lines were even more longer than you would believe. Over two hours to get checked In. We had lunch food was good. We had a rear balcony on level 6. Not worth the upgrade cost. Room was nice but nothing different than a side balcony. Glass on the balcony  to look thru  at the ocean was filthy. Could not see thru it. Luggage arrived before dinner. Monday  was rough because of tropical storm Kate. Many people were ill. Dinning was ok but nothing like last time we were on the ship. Shows were okay, better at the end of the week. Comedy shows are in the Butterfly lounge. Had to wait in line and sometimes you could not get a seat for the over 18 shows. Not sure why they don't use the larger theatre. Days at sea no much activity going on. Last time they had karaoke  during the day and that was fun to do. Like the old decorations better but that's me. Didn't care for what they did to the David statue. Randy our room steward was fantastic. Rest of the staff I didn't feel were as friendly like last time. Got into port late because of an emergency medial condition of a passenger at sea. It was nice they left us all know in the morning. The helicopter made a lot of noise in the we hours of the morning to pick up the patient. I hope she is doing find. Took our own luggage off the ship and that went good, got off about two hours earlier than if  we would of let them take our luggage. Trip over all was good but there is room for improvements. Now on to the Carnival Splendor in 2016 and back to the Pride in the Fall to Bermuda.
