This was my first cruise although my partner had cruised with Disney, Carnival, etc. I was very worried about sea sickness so I bought Gravol, Gravol Ginger and sea bands. I wore my sea bands two days prior and I did NOT get sick. Just dizzy which was quite funny.
Okay, now the Epic boarding...top notch. Getting our bags in front of the state room, genius. The Steward was so cute.
Food! I am on Atkins, my partner allergic to peanuts and fish. Did we suffer or have issues with the Garden Cafe? Nope! Food was so good. Great selection and varieties of veg, etc. I bought the all you can drink pop program and that was so worth it. I am a Diet Pepsi nut!
8004. Great bed, great balcony. Clean and well maintained. Almost brand new. Shower drained rather slow, not sure if that's ow it is on a ship or it was just our shower. No worries though.
