Food and Dining

We didn’t try main dining… my little one could sit still for very long. But the buffet was great had plenty of options for everyone in my family!

Onboard Activities

This was our very first cruise… we spent most of our time relaxing on our balcony or stargazing on the top deck. My daughter did the trampoline bungee cord… she really liked that. My son had a blast at the splash pad!
