This was my 3rd cruise, all with Carnival. This was also my 1st cruise since the Swine Flu disaster on the Splendor in April 09'. After that experience I was a little nervous about cruising again. A 50% coupon convinced me to give it another try. The Dream restored my faith in cruising!!!

Let me first say that I was a member of the Cruise Critic Dream Team. Our host Randy took care of us in every way possible. He arraigned pick up from MCO to the Radisson in Pt. Canaveral, which also came at a discount because of CCDT. He was able to pull strings and get Ron Pass the piano man on a one week contract. He was on the Swine Flu cruise and is the most entertaining person I've ever seen. Every night in the piano bar was an adventure in drinks and laughter. Dr. Phil and his group were always great company. I cruised with the greatest group of people possible and will never forget it.

The ship is a lot like the Splendor in design with the exception of the Lanai on deck 5 and the water works. The Lanai was the fastest way to get around the ship while enjoying a smoke break. There were plenty of empty deck chairs there and they had a couple of large chess sets to play with. The water works were a blast. There was hardly a line for the drainpipe slide which I thought was a lot funner then the twister slide.

Front of the ship, we felt the waves hitting the bow the first 2 nights, port side so we saw good views of ports
