Review summary

Carnival delivers, as usual, a decent experience. They have streamlined the boarding and disembarking process. My wife has MS and uses a walker. The staff was great in accomading her. 

Tge only real hiccups were in a few staff, who were less than friendly. Our server was cold and distant, and a bartender in the Red Frog, was not interested in explaining their ship-brewed beers.

 They also have a new attraction called Skyrider, which was only open from noon to 430. When we tried to get on it, just to say we did, it was closed due to high winds. It was a bit breezy, but not unusual for a Gulf crossing in March. We sailed a dozen times before, and have encounter much higher seas, just seems to be more flash than substance in the attraction. All in all, a great trip with excellent shows.
