Additional details
Wow. Wow. Wow. And wow again! We got home last night.
I'm convinced cruising is THEE way to travel. MUCH preferable to flying hours into a single destination, spending a few days then flying hours back home.
I read many of the negative reviews and some of the positive reviews before we left and again after we returned last night. The specifics are well explored on this website, so I'll just comment on our impressions.
Cabin Review
Mid-Ship Balcony
Stateroom 9578 is located slightly forward of mid-ship on the port (left) side of the ship. We were told this was a good location for first-time cruisers who didn't know whether we'd get sea-sickness (we didn't).
My husband is 6ft tall, 200 lbs and I'm 5'6", 180...we were a little cramped when walking around the cabin and I felt "big" in the bathroom, bumping into the sliding doors even on calm sea days.
It has the balcony I wanted - clear plexi-glass 4th wall so I could still watch the sea while sitting down (on the beach chairs). Also, its relatively private.
Over all I thought the stateroom utilized space very efficiently, but we think we'll look into a mini-suite our next cruise.
