Needing to chill out and relax , we chose the Emerald Princess and the Southern Caribbean itinerary. There were 4 new ports for us and 6 days to relax. It was very enjoyable.
We generally can never stay up for night life after a day of sightseeing, but we became night owls on this cruise. The new show times and entertainment schedule made choosing things to do much easier. We were able to do more then one thing each night after dinner.
Embarkation was delayed, but once the doors opened, we were checked in and onboard in 15 minutes. We had a midship balcony on the starboard Caribe deck and were pleased with our steward.
