This was our 4th cruise, first on Royal Caribbean. There were 4 of us, me, my husband and 2 sons ages 13 & 20. We had booked our own airfare and shuttle - and except for a little hiccup on the pre-payment for the shuttle, we had no trouble from LAX to San Pedro. (Funny coincidences began at the Sacto long term parking. Struck up a conversation with a couple, who were not only on our plane, but on our ship as well. Ran into them again waiting for the same shuttle service we had booked at LAX.)

Embarkation: We got to the terminal a little before 12:00. There was a line of people with luggage waiting for porters. It's a good thing we asked questions as the porters were not being assigned in the order of the line, but was just helping whoever asked first. Short line at the check-in then down to the waiting area. My husband has a broken back so the cruise line did not make him stand too long, we were able to get on board fairly quickly - about 1:00.

Ship: The Vision is a beautiful ship. There were signs of age, wear and tear, but more signs of it being cared for - fresh paint, very clean. We found some of the public areas a little on the gaudy side, but not unpleasantly so and much less than the Carnival ship we had cruised on. The Centrium is very beautiful. Pools were inviting. Really liked the solarium pool. That area was relaxing, quiet and warm.
