Review summary

We all loved the trip and ate too much. We are looking to do this same cruise again in a few years, maybe over Thanksgiving.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Being California I expected tons of traffic and a lot of people. Traffic wasn’t bad and even though there was a lot of people we didn’t wait long to go through check in and get on the ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We found the food at the buffet, MDR and specialty restaurants all to be great. Deserts were the only items we found to be on the ok side, except for the crepe brûlée which was awesome.

Having to tender is the only downfall. We swam with dolphins and loved it.
