My GF and I, 31 and 34, flew directly to Ft. Lauderdale on 4/10, the day of the cruise, and took the SAS shuttle at $15/pp to the Port of Miami, arriving a little after 11:00. Embarkation went smoothly and we were on the ship within 30 minutes.
Once on board, we explored a little and headed to the buffet. Our first reaction to the buffet was, "Where is the rest of it?" The setup is not ideal; there are no "stations," just one long line with two sides and a salad bar in the middle. The two sides have the same prepared items, one side has a carving station and the other a pasta station. Where there is an ice cream bar on the right side, the left side has a stir fry station. We were lucky enough to get a Freestyle Daily when we checked in (not everyone did), so we knew that the Seven Seas MDR was open for lunch and that's where we had our first meal. It wasn't bad.
I don't want to go into every detail about the ship, so I'll focus on a few things.
