Review summary

Had a great time with my wife and met lots of great people. A little rough on the last day at sea when we hit a big storm. The captain said it wasn’t the hurricane but ship was listing at on point from the intense winds. Very fun vacation.

Great ship but avoid aft cabins since the vibration won’t let you sleep
