We sailed from New Orleans and stayed at the Prytania Parks Hotel. This was a great place to stay and we enjoyed riding the Streetcar and not having to park downtown.
As always, embarkation was very smooth, Arrived at port earlier than normal and had Zone 4 boarding. Once on ship we went to Lido for lunch. It started to rain but never put a damper on our trip. Food on this trip was just ok at the buffet. Seemed like same things every day and just not much of an assortment. We really enjoyed our meals in the main dining room and the staff was excellent. We were in a Cove balcony mid ship and really enjoyed it. No odors.....Up the elevator and we were right at the Lido for fun, drinks and Ice Cream. Our Wonderful Room Stewards were the best, Johny & His team were always there if we needed anything.
Our first sea day back from Nassau, we sat on the balcony and watched several pods of dolphins for over an hour. This was probably the highlight of the trip. Well maybe the Fun Force dancers would also rate up there. These guys are fabulous and they would be considered a MUST see while on board. Ports of call were nice and never felt hassled by vendors to purchase their goods except in Nassau. Casino was a little better than normal but nothing to get over excited about.
Great being so close to the water and very private. Enjoyed sitting out and enjoying the quiet time ..
