50th Anniversary Chocolate Journeys - This was a special dessert every night in the dining room. Wonderful dessert.
Plan. I read lots of reviews on CC and on trip advisor, and it helped me make some great choices and avoid some pitfalls. Because I got such good info, I am leaving a detailed review - maybe others will be helped by it as much as I was helped.
We were mid forward on deck 10 Starboard side. This was the land side of the ship for the route from BA to LA. Great location as only 3 floors down from Lido and 3 floors up from Promonade. Those steps are do-able when you don't want to wait for the elevator, or if you need to walk off those calories. Very little foot traffic outside our door, and we were only a few doors down from the self-service laundry. Laundry was extremely busy on sea day mornings, but if you didn't mind waiting until 3:00 or so, I usually found it uncrowded.
