This was mine and my husbands first cruise so we really didn't know what to expect. We were just really excited to be taking a vacation without the kids! We flew into Miami on Saturday night and stayed at the Hyatt in Downtown. The room was great. We took the metro tram to the Bayside Marketplace for dinner.
Getting on the ship only took us about 45 minutes. Once we were on the ship we were told that our room was not going to be ready for another 2 hours. Everything else on the ship was open, so we decided to have lunch by the pool.
FOOD! WOW! You will never go hungry on this ship! There is a 24-hour pizzeria, a grill (serves hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, fries), a sandwich place, an asian corner, sushi bar, not to mention the buffet! The food is great! We had the late night seating in the lower Lincoln dinning room. We ate there every night. The food is fabulous there and you can order as much as you want!
