Got to terminal around 11am. There was a very long line but being in a wheelchair shorten the process. Me and my group of 10 went right through the line and were the first to board the ship. We took our own wheelchair and that was a great idea but we had an incident happen upon leaving the ship. Will go over that later on.

The ship was beautiful and very classy but I have nothing to compare it with but I was impressed. The Lido deck was always very slippery because of the guests coming in and out of the swimming pool. I almost slipped once or twice. I was also hesitant to eat there because of this. The cabin was always cleaned. Kind of small but adequate for two of us. The shower was very small and water does fall off of it. I got flooded once and had to clean it up myself as I did not want to bother the cabin steward or housekeeping. It was very cold throughout the ship so do take sweaters. I like to be in a cool place but it was as cold as a doctor's office.

The food - I did not care for the Lido deck food. Not much of a selection. The food was cold and the desserts were bland. I did enjoy the mango pie. I tried to avoid the Lido deck food. But I do think the hot dogs were great. We went to the Sur Mer and did not care for the food there. It is up to the individual on their likes and dislikes. We went to the pastry booth and I tried the carrot cake. It was dry and not fresh. It ended up on the trash. The eggs scrambled at the Lido deck and Monet dining room tasted like egg beaters and tasted mushy. I will say that the food at the formal dining room was excellent. I enjoyed each meal every day that I was there. Our waiters were excellent. Jose was from Honduras (real cute) and Sasha from Russia. I tipped them very good as they made us feel like royalty. But they do give small portions of the side dishes. The entertainment was great that the waiters gave us each night. They work hard so do give them a tip. They deserve it.
