I am not new to cruising. My family and I have been on 10 in the last 20+ years. And the cruise industry has changed significantly in those years.
The cruise starts with them sayings that I already checked in. Which I had not. After a few minutes, they seem to have it all figured out and off we go up the gangplank to go aboard. I get to the next checkpoint and my Sea Pass has a different person's picture on it. After another 10 minutes or so, they get it figured out. Not the smoothest embarkation, but I'm still excited.
The ship was very nice and clean. It has a nice classy look about it.
We had a Junior suite, so our room was a nice size and we enjoyed sitting on the deck. The TV was small for the room we thought. Our shower had barely enough water pressure to keep the shower valve engaged. One time my wife turned on the sink to brush her teeth, and the shower stop right when I had a face full of soap.
