I booked an 8 night cruise from Baltimore for my entire family. Wife, 2 daughters, son-in-law, grandson, and future son-in-law. This cruise started bad from the very beginning. After dropping off my luggage and passengers, I went to park the car. My wife was refused admittance to the terminal until our entire party was present. It was 20 degrees outside.

Getting on the ship was easy. Ship looked old, but was clean. Next problem was Muster Drill. 20 degrees outside, and we waited 25 minutes while some clown was telling us not to throw marshmellows in the commode. A celebrity cruise from Rome in October, 75 degrees, and we went into a room and received info inside.

Cabin Review

Large Interior Stateroom

Cabin K

Clean, great location by elevators, very small bathroom.

Port Reviews

Port Canaveral (Orlando)

ever left port area. Went to a nasa type museum, saw enterprise car rental, aw fishing boats, saw the locks on the river, then stopped at a seafood market. At that point, five of us left the tour, went to a restaurant, ate, and took a cab back. Other people on the tour disliked it also.

Nassau

walked around town, headed to a beach, then ate lunch at Fat Tuesday. Good meal.

Key West

Been there many times. Did my usual bar tour, Hogs Breath, Capain Tony's, Sloppys, Fogarty's (great fish sandwich), green Parrot. Replenished my T-shirt supply

Baltimore

boarded and unloaded. Stood outside for 25 minutes in 20 degree weather for Muster Drill
