What a great bar. The only bar on the ship that could make a manhattan. Triana is my favorite bar tender ever. Check out the awesome "creepy" drinks. lol

Cabin / Stateroom

It was a little different being a square cabin. At first look I was skeptical, but we loved it other than the bathroom being a little small...the shower was awesome
