I just returned from the Carnival Legend 8 day cruise to the Eastern Caribbean. I have previously sailed on 3 other cruises.. two with Celebrity (Zenith and Mercury) and the other with Royal Caribbean (Explorer of the Seas).
Embarkation consisted of long lines after long lines. Arrived on ship to the atrium. Pretty nice.. however the decor is very busy.. complete with urns everywhere. and the same cheesy border around the whole ship. Weird for me.
The first 2 days at sea were ok. The first night at sea the ship was a rockin quite a bit. I know the ship has stabilizers but this was unacceptable, the ship is very narrow which caused it to sway. The 2nd night however was much better.
