Well, I think that I have finally recovered enough to post my review of what we thought was the best cruise we have taken to date. I'm talking about the May 1st sailing of the Carnival Freedom to the Western Mediterranean.

Before I begin posting the details of the cruise itself, I must make a few comments concerning Cruise Critic. This cruise would not have been as successful as it was if it had not been for the 100+ people who actively participated in the roll call that was started by Gabe (floridabuckeye). We have got to give Gabe a great big thanks! Because of this roll call, many cruisers were able to book tours and transfers together, share tables together in the dining rooms and meet a lot of new friends. I highly recommend that each of you stay active in the roll call for your cruise. We had three meet-and-greets with Carnival providing us with a meeting place for our large group.
