I wanted to take the time to write a detailed and thorough review; however, the longer I wait to FIND the time to do just that the less I remember about the cruise...so quickly the fantastic memories fade.
We had a wonderful cruise. I traveled with my husband (38), my daughter (3), my son (5), my mom (63) and my dad (66). I am 34. Overall we had a fantastic cruise. The food was great. The service was fantastic. And, it is just very nice to be pampered and "taken care of" for a week. That doesn't happen at home for sure and it just doesn't happen on land vacations either.
It had been years since we had cruised (my hubby and I, that is,- for everyone else it was the first time), and I had forgotten that by the last day on that ship you feel like your waiter, room steward, and those who helped are good friends that you just hate to leave behind. These relationships are a large part of the joy of cruising.
