I loved this ships staff. They were absolutely amazing and so much fun. Entertainment was good most days. The ship is very nice. Cabin was great. The food however, very disappointing. Lets say I lost 12 pounds on this cruise, which I have read is unheard of. The food was luke warm, not very good options in the dining rooms, and the buffet was 10 days of pretty much repeat. Many I spoke with on the cruise said that the food on Carnival was much better for half the cost....but this ship was amazing. Ports of call were great. Good excursion options. All and all, I was happy with my vacation.....Happy Retirement Captain Bob :) The House Band Topaz is Awesome!!
