This was our family's 1st cruise (total of 5 of us) and we were directed by our travel agent that the Sky was a good 1st cruise option. We have 3 children 23, 19, and 15. We had 2 interior staterooms which turned out to be great. Starting from Miami airport getting a shuttle bus from the rental car company to the registration process the semi large crowd moved continuously. We boarded at 1:30 and our rooms were ready and our luggage arrived at 2:30. We went immediately to deck 11 to the main pool area and ordered our 1st drink. Our jaws dropped when we could order anything we could imagine from Kettle One, Titos, Absolute, and almost anything we call top shelve. We went into a pasta pizza restaurant right next to the main pool and ordered a slice and our daughter ordered pasta. Fresh and quick, just what we wanted as we were lured back to the 78 degrees on the pool deck. Live music, fun pool games and plenty of drinks made 3 hours seem like minutes. We went back to our rooms to get ready for dinner. We went to the main "freestyle" dinning room called the Crossings. We met one of the best waitress named "Ni" from Indonesia. Our family could not stop talking about how awesome she was at making us feel like we were the most important. She gave us unbelievable great insider info for the week to come. We went back and requested Ni 3 of the 4 nights. She made our trip. There is so much more I could write but in simple terms, this trip on the Norwegian Sky was just amazing!
