My husband and I are back home, kinda sad, but full of great memories. Our embarkation went quickly and smoothly. We purchased the Faster to the Fun package and were so glad we did. We arrived about 11:00 A.M., had our luggage handled and parked our car and were in our cabin before 11:30. Our ocean view cabin was clean and cheery. The entire staff in any area of the ship were friendly and quick to help. Not all reviewers agreed, but the ship was very clean. I saw workers wiping down the stairwell railings often and even washing the walls and shining the ceiling. There was always someone around to fill your glass, get you napkins, take away your dishes, etc.

There was plenty to do at anytime. The shows were our favorite part of the day. Awesome talent! We really enjoyed Jenny and the band Shakewell, too. The casino was really fun. Spent a little $ everyday, but won enough to break even. Not so lucky with Bingo, but fun. We played some trivia and even danced -which we never do! There was plenty of food for all tastes, so even if what you chose turned out to be a disappointment there were plenty of other things to try. I figured that I would be willing to gain 2-3 pounds for the experience, and I may have. (I’m not ready to weigh myself yet to find out.). The ship is a great way to burn calories by walking and stair climbing.

We were lucky on our first cruise to have the best Cruise Director ever - so much fun, full of energy and enthusiasm, taking time to ask how our day was...She added so much to the quality of our experience - We love Brittany! And Lee was hilarious and had the cutest moves! (Love him, too

Ri, our cabin Steward, was excellent. The first day there was a shower problem and Lee saw to it that it was fixed within less than an hour. He was thoughtful and friendly. It felt good when he called us by name every time we saw him. What a great smile.
