Parking -- There are many choices right across from the ship, in fact my husband parked and walked across to meet us.

Embarkation -- We arrived to start the process @ noon. It took about an hour for the entire process and it was very smooth. We had fun meeting people in line and just laughing. The funniest part was noticing how many people really thought they could get away with brining alcohol on board! There was an entire crate of bottled water filled with vodka. Our room was ready upon arrival. Pick up a map at Guest Services -- it's so important to learn the layout of the ship.

Cabin - Balcony cabin on the 6th floor. Rooms are spacious, equipped with a blow dryer, shampoo, bath soap so no need to bring your own unless you prefer a higher quality soap/shampoo. Beds are very comfortable. We had a group of 26 and all on the same floor. It's important to see where you room is located adjacent to the map of the ship prior to arrival. Many of the rooms are above entertainment and the occupants were miserable with noise. The rooms are cleaned twice daily and we LOVED our room attendant -- SUE! Read more
