Just got back from the Carnival Dream. It was my wife and 5 year old daughter and I onboard. While we had a good time on the ship, as seasoned cruisers we were disappointed in the Dining. But first lets start at the beginning.

Embarkation was the easiest I have ever had. We got to the port at about 1:30 and were on the boat in about 20 minutes. We did not have any Faster to the Fun passes or anything. We just dropped the bags, parked the car and walked right though customs and the baggage screens. they took our pictures and handed us our room keys and onboard we went. Outstanding job here Carnival.!

One problem we had was the limited time at the ports. But we knew this going into it and many of the cruise lines do this. I wish they would either add a fourth port to the itinerary or extend the amount of time in port. We enjoy having dinner in port at a lot of locations but when you ship leaves after only 5 hours that is pretty hard to do more than one thing at any location.
