Additional details

Sail Date: Oct 2011
Cabin: Interior with Picture Window (obstructed views)

Embarkation: We stepped onto the ship on deck three, in the Colors bar, where there were many servers touting the drink of the day. Because of our prior experience, we knew the drinks would be costly and avoided them. It seemed like others there were shocked when they took one from the server's tray and were charged the $10 immediately. The bar was loud and disorienting as well. We made it through the crowd and up to Lido for lunch, then to the "secret" deck ten aft area near the fish and chips that was almost always empty. Sanctuary!

Public rooms: The public areas of the ship, each named and decorated a different color, made it easy to see where you were. Other than the Golden Restaurant taking up the entire width of the ship on decks 3 and 4, it was easy to get around, and to the front or rear as needed.

Cabin: Our cabin at the front of the ship directly under the bridge was nice and out of the way... most of the time. More on that later. The cabin was kept clean by a wonderful pair of room stewards.

Cabin 4J

Out of the way, with a semi-private balcony. At night, the curtains had to stay closed so as not to leak light out to the area under the bridge. The deck outside our cabin was pretty much the only place on the ship that wasn't spilling light everywhere, and stargazing was amazing. If you're in one of the front cabins, do yourself a favor and check the latches on the storage benches before bad weather hits!
