Additional details
We had a wonderful 7-night cruise to Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. I am sure my DW will write her own review, so this one will be from my perspective.
We drove from Columbus, Ohio to New Orleans, over the Thanksgiving holiday. We spent a night in Birmingham, Alabama, then two nights in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. We thought about staying in NOLA and getting a "Park and Cruise" deal, but the big college football game was that weekend, so we were decided to stay about an hour and 15 minutes east.
We drove into NOLA Sunday morning and parked at the Convention Center lot for $12 a day. We booked this online and had no problem getting in. We were early enough to leave our stuff in the car and head over to Cafe du Monde for Sunday morning beignets, which are so good!
Cabin Review
Obstructed Oceanview
We were upgraded to an outside obstructed view, that looked over out at a lifeboat. Actually, all I wanted was the natural light, so I was quite happy with that. Didn't spend much time in the cabin looking out the window anyway.The cabin was nicely laid out. Amenities included a safe, mini-fridge, and doors that separated the shower from the sink, and one that separated the sink from the toilet. You could hear the people from the Fyzz Lounge below, but it wasn't too bad at all.
