Review summary

Boarding: Couldn't be easier. Big space to wait. Very organized. [TIP: Arrive a few hours earlier, say 3, because there won't be any lines!] Staff: Best staff ever. I noticed that each and every of them were always willing to give you the time of day! [TIP: Please tip generously! I was a former waitress ; ] ] Rooms: I requested the oceanview room but all it is is a porthole. [TIP: If you don't care much for views and seeing whether you docked or not, then don't bother.] If you have any further questions, feel free to email me at loveschinesefood@hotmail.com . I love talking about my cruise and would love to simplify your pre-cruising experience!

Take those cute little man-pedaled rides to the nearby mall. Sorry, can't remember the name! But it had many high-end stores if that's what you're looking for.

Catalina Island, California

GORGEOUS. I recommend the Cataline Scenic Tour. Only $16 per adult and very fun. The tour guide made it fun,anyways =]

If you go to see La Bufadora, the shops all pretty uch sell the same things: fake Chanels and Pradas, fake silver and real silver, junk,etc, Sellers are very aggressive; they'll half pull you into their shops, especially if you're young and a girl!

Cons: Smelly carpet in some areas =/
