My husband and I just got back from our second NCL cruise and didn't want to leave the ship.
Embarkation: It was ok...I think everybody decided to get there at the same time so the line up was a little long but it moved steadily. Once we got on board we had lunch at the Garden Cafe and didn't have to wait long until the rooms were ready.
Ship: The ship itself was very nice. It was easy to get around and very clean. The overall decor is nice and bright and had a fun cruise feel to it. My only problem was the air conditioning - I was very cold on the ship most days!
