Embarkation-ridiculousy quick and easy. On board eating at the buffet after only 20 minutes of arriving in Port. We got to to Port around 11:00 am or so. No wait whatsoever. *****NOTE****Upon embarkation, going to the Gathering-there is another buffet in back of the Gathering. No one realizes if you go back there, there is no line at all. Everyone goes to the front buffet on the first day.

Cabins-excellent, nice size. A bit tight for my fam of 4 that includes 2 teenage boys. Our steward, Eva, was very nice and knew our names instandly.

Food-I am an extremely picky eater. I was able to find something to eat. We ate at the buffet, room service, dining room-anytime dining, and I had the Mongolian Wok. I waited in line early, about 10 minutes before they opened to make sure I got my meal. I didn't want to wait in the long line that would form as there was only 1 Mongolian Wok. In the dining room, ask for Joel. We only got to eat at his table once, however, I found him to be the best server there-so much so, I don't remember the other server. Borko was a bartender, he made sure our table always had drinks-I do not drink, my DH and inlaws do.

Great cabin location, midship. It was perfect. Maybe could have been a little bigger-was tight with 4 people--2 almost being adults. Bathroom was ample-bigger than Disney.
