Relaxing trip celebrating with my son. Just a mom and son trip. Great memories

Embarkation

We are local. So arrived at the port at 12:15. We were on board by 12:30. Super easy. No one was in the terminal on a sold out cruise.

Cabin / Stateroom

Last minute upgrade offer was accepted. We went from an interior to a deluxe obstructed view balcony. We had no obstructions that we noticed. Wonderful cabin in a great location

Ship tip

The mid and forward elevators get crowded. Head to the aft elevators to get to the floor you want without being crowded in.

My debit card was stolen from my Apple wallet here and I never took my phone out of my bag or even used my debit card. Be aware and check your bank account the moment you are back in your cabin

Love San Diego. This is where I plan to retire. We went to the USS Midway Museum then took a ferry over to Coronado. This was my son’s birthday. It was a great day

Thanks for the helpful review. Can you tell us how much over the minimum you bid for your upgrade? WOW, any idea how your card info was stolen off Apple Pay? Apple swears your card numbers are not stored on the app. Are you sure it happened in Ensenada?
