This was my familys first cruise and I had decided over a year ago this was where I want to turn 50, I had also had just lost my mom unexpected a week prior to leaving. The cruise surpassed my wishes, the staff specially Juniyar and Thre and our wonderful cabin steward John made our trip so much more enjoyable. I am hoping I can do another cruise in 2017 . We loved the music and dance shows, the movies at night on the lido deck . The shore excursion we took were beautiful and everything we wished for. The food was outstanding in the steak house and the Lincoln dining was something we began to look forward too , our wait staff was beyond awesome. My niece ( 17) who thought she would have to tow behind her mom and Aunt , found some friends instantly and she was off and running with her new friends and had a great time. There wasn't one thing I could say that was not good. overall I am giving it 5 stars...
