After listening to my wife hint that she wanted to go on a cruise, I finally began to research my options. The closest port to us was Galveston: we live about 170 miles from there so we avoided the airfare, hotels and other expenses associated with just getting to the boat. That limited our options for cruise lines to the Carnival Magic or the Triumph.
We chose a four day cruise in case cruising wasn't out thing. Turns out that it was a lot of fun. We had passport cards, so embarkation was easy. Lines were long but they moved quickly. Once on board, lunch was being served on the Lido deck. Very nice; huge hot dogs with chili, burgers to order, many other choices.
Our cabin was on deck seven and had a private balcony: the balcony was not big enough for more than three or four people, but enough room to enjoy your morning coffee with a little solitude. Our room was always kept clean and our steward showed us the little supply room where we could get ice anytime we wanted it. Dining room was excellent; wait staff were very friendly and love to visit with their guests. Food was excellent. Buffet food was always good. Nothing real fancy, but you could get a nice meal anytime you wanted it.
7349 Well located. Far enough away from the Lido pool to be quiet, but the elevator to the Lido deck was only a few steps away! Nice balcony. Stewards utility room was right across the hall. ( that's where the ice machine is)! Old tv and it only gets the Cartoon Network. Bed was comfortable. ventilation was excellent. Nice bathroom and shower
