Overall a great cruise.
Embarkation: very smooth, quick lines and no glitches. Plenty of places to roam, explore and eat while staterooms were prepared.
Aqua Class: at first we weren't sure whether to recommend Aqua to others. First - unlimited use of Persian Garden: relaxing and a great experience, however, really only used on sea days because you're so wiped out on excursion days you just don't have the time. Second - Blu restaurant. At first we thought we may be missing something from the main dining room. The seating is very quiet and intimate, and the food being somewhat (though not totally) healthy was fantastic, we never had a meal that at least part of we didn't rave about. After trying the main dining room one time we learned what a gem Blu really is! Fabulous dinners as well as a great breakfast that was relaxed, not crowded and exceptional service. Aqua is worth exclusive use of this resource alone (unless of course you're willing to spring for a suite).
