Review for the Mexican Riviera Cruise on Carnival Splendor

Travelers: Me, hubby, bro-in-law (BNL), and father-in-law (FNL). First time cruisers. Celebrating my FNL's 64th birthday.

Day 1: Boarded on the ship around 1pm. There were tons of people there waiting in line already. They checked all our bottles of water just in case we were bad and try to sneak some alcohol. Lots of peoples' attempt to sneak alcohol via bottle waters failed. Apparently, alcohol bubbles up when you shake it up. The guest behind us had a suit case of Bud Light, which was confiscated. Our rooms were not ready till 2pm. We lunch on the Lido deck. Our rooms were clean, but not to our expectations. Being a health professional and a clean freak, I sanitized our rooms. From pervious cruisers's recommendations we brought: Frebreze, all purpose cleaner spray, Clorox wipes, hand sanitizer wipes, walkie-talkies, bug spray, 16oz Styrofoam cups/lids/straws and downy wrinkle releaser. We hung majority of our clothes and utilized the closet space. We pushed our suit cases under our bed. The room was more spacious then we expected.

Day 2: It was chilly and very windy. We stayed indoors most of the day. The gym was very busy from 8am-10am. There is a 30min time limit on the treadmill. The gym showers where fabulous. 3 individuals stall with wonderful shower heads and great steam ability. Per my hubby and BNL, the steam was only working in the handicap shower stall in the Men's room.
