As with all Carnival Cruises, the staff greeted us with many warm welcomes. The atmosphere was filled with people of great spirits and seemingly happy to be vacationing. Of course lunch was available on the Ledo deck as we await the rooms to be available. Our bags were at our door when we got to the room at approximately 2:30pm.
