This was our first ever cruise, so I will apologize in advance for my long-winded review.
(My wife, Toni, is a terminal cancer patient who, after surviving non-Hodgkins lymphoma for 12 years, was diagnosed with stage IV metastatic breast cancer and given 6 months to live in December of 2012. And, after nearly dying twice from complications due to her chemotherapy, she's still holding her own.)
So, we decided to do it as first class as we could, and booked the Breakaway's second-largest stateroom in The Haven. We were treated like royalty from the moment we got on board on the 15th, until we disembarked on the 22nd. And, it actually it began during the week before we left for the trip.
