My husband booked this cruise as a gift to celebrate my 40th birthday. We have sailed 10 times prior with Princess & RCCL. We sailed on the Victory which was chartered by John Mayer we can't count that one! Traveling with us was our 14 year old son and 8 year old daughter.
We live within 2 hours of Miami so we arrived at the Port at noon, dropped our luggage off at the pier and parked the car in the parking garage. If you forget to put luggage tags on, they will be provided for you! We took a short bus trip to the ship and were on the boat within a 1/2 hour!
Instead of Rosies buffet we opted to eat at the Fish and Chips the first day! They offered Ahi tuna and a mixture of seafood. It was delicious, however, we did not eat there the rest of the week.
