This was my first cruise, I didn't have much to compare it to. The embarkation was horrible I can't blame Norweign as they had a yearly drill, so we were stuck in line standing for at least an hour and half (not fun). The shore excursions in Florida and Nassau were great, we booked one for Great Stir-UP Cay but didn't know we were suppose to meeting someone other than the theatre for priority tendering, so we missed our tour but were reimbursed for it. Since it wasn't a good day to be there, I really would have preferred two days in Nassau. The entertainment was great, absolutely loved Rock of Ages. The dining in the specialty restaurant was good, the buffet was what you would expect. I was worried about getting sea sick but took bonine and ginger root tablets and had not issues. Overall enjoyed my first cruise.
