This is my second cruise. My first cruise was on Carnival and no BP doesn't compare to it however I enjoyed myself!!! I've heard nothing but complaints about this cruise line but it was not that bad plus YOU booked the cruise. So please stop complaining! What did you expect? red carpet treatment?? Anyway. The hotel I stayed at was Red Roof inn for one night. GREAT HOTEL!! Also teachers receive a discount! Walmart is located less than a mile if you forget any last minute items. The next morning, we head to the port which was less than ten miles away. Make sure you arrive early to avoid waiting. Actually, we were one of the first people to arrive so our transition was easy. Valet parking was $34. Our luggage and identification check went smoothly as well. *I tried to bring alcohol. Did not work so don't try* We were suppose to load the ship at 1pm but it was an hour later. Once on the ship, we went to our room. The room was cleaned and tidy. We had an ocean view room which I highly suggest.

Entertainment: LOTS! casino, teen club, bar, salsa room, theatre, kids room, etc!

Dining: Food was okay. You might want to pay extra money to eat well. Read more
