Review summary

We took this cruise to catch a little sunshine, not because we were attacked to the ports. The ship was excellent, and we love being on board. Our most interesting shore experience was in San Diego. We walked over to the Midway. It’s less than a 10 minute stroll to the aircraft carrier, and we could have easily spent another 3 or 4 hours touring the ship. A fabulous experience for less than $40pp. Highly recommended!

The bocce ball and 3 hole mini-putt was a pleasant surprise to see on the lawn. The enclose pool was our favourite area to lounge, and we made good daily use of the fitness area.

No children
