This was my first cruise and I was very impressed. We were greeted in the drop off area by the parking attendant. They took our suitcases out of the car and made sure the tags were correct. And they parked the car for only $70.00. We checked in and they waited for about an hour before we could board. Lunch was waiting for us on the lido deck. In a few hour we were underway. They view in the Bay was great and under the skyway bridge and we were off. Entertainment was great. The shows were current and entertaining. The seating was nice for the larger person to set comfortably. They had many little skits involving the crew and the passengers that were fun and entertaining. We went to several of them. I also enjoyed, more the I should have, the shops onboard. They only complaint with them is that they should have in stock t-shirt for the larger person. Even if they are in storage and have to be asked for. I could not get a Carnival, Cancun, or Grand Cayman T because they were not in the larger sizes (4-7X). All the lounges were comfortable to the larger person. Shore Excursions: Grand Caymans was very nice but very short. We were they only 5 hrs. By the time we went on our excursion. We hand to go back to the ship. No time to shop. We went on the stingray city tour. It was great. When I go back I would do it again. We swam with the stingrays! But we could not get any rum because you had to buy it one hour before sailing and our tour was over 30 mins before sailing. GGrrrrrrr In Mexico we went to Cancun shopping tour. They bus was very uncomfortable and the A/c did not work well. Everyone was uncomfortable. The shopping was outstanding and the food was very good. We went to Macamba (I think that was how you spell it). It was an outdoor dinning.

We had lunch under the cover of palm branches right on the beach. With a view of the blues of the Caribbean Sea. (Sigh) Our last day at see went by to fast. We spent some of the day in the Casino, and lost $30.00 and spent some time with BINGO. They rest of the day was enjoying the view. The room was nice. We had a window and a nice view most of the time. The steward was nice and the room was well serviced. The bathroom was big enough for the larger person and I thank them for that. By far my favorite place was on deck or sitting across from the casino watching the sea and relaxing. I would like to thank the servers for never letting me run out of my drink. Thank you.....
