This was our first cruise. This is something I have wanted to do all my life. I turned 60 last January. My husband is very tall, 64 and he always thought we would be uncomfortable in the cabins. Maybe we would have been on other lines, but not on the Carnival Miracle. I am a planner. I get a vision in my head about what the trip should be like. This was my dream trip, and my expectations were met and exceeded. This is a wonderful cruise and I highly recommend it to anyone, old or young.
Embarking
Easy 10 minute drive for us. We live in Tampa. Arrived around 11 a.m., spent the extra $10 for valet parking for the week, and with the help of a very friendly agent inside, were on the ship and having a wonderful buffet lunch on Lido deck by 12:30. Went to our room promptly at 1:30
