Additional details
Departure port is Bayonne, N.J. Being from Central Virginia and having to drive on the New Jersey Turnpike was a cultural shock. The tolls alone put a drain on our E-Z pass.
We are arrived in Bayonne a day before departure and checked into the Wyndham Newark Bayonne Cruiseport. Do not be deceived. The night's stay was reasonable, rooms accomdating, and you can park your car on the hotel lot while you're cruising...HOWEVER.......the cost of a cab for a 5 minute ride to the ship is $65.00!! (Note: the reverse ride....> Ship back to the hotel was half the price. I don't get it.)
Embarkation was a breeze. My husband uses a cane, and they sure take care of the handicapped quickly.
Cabin Review
Deluxe Veranda 2C
We absolutely loved our room. There were rumors that storage space was limited and not planned well. We certainly had more than enough room. I was concerned because the usual clothesline in the shower was gone, but it was not a problem. New showers fantastic! In fact, this was the largest stateroom we've had. No hall noise.
I have learned from previous cruises to bring along stronge magnetic hooks. They work well on the walls and can hold reminders, towels, pajamas, hats, pocketbooks.
