Myself, Mother and Mother In Law cruised as our Christmas gift to the moms. Guys stayed at home. We really enjoyed the whole experience from day 1. We shared an oversized balcony with the moms in twin beds and myself on the convertible couch. The room had plenty of storage and room to move around and we took the desk chair on the balcony when all 3 of us wanted to be outside. As stated before the beds are a little hard but I was very comfortable.

We drove down the night before and stayed at 4 points Sheraton which was fine but a little pricey. We parked with cruisepark and had to lug our suitcases a couple of blocks including across train tracks and up stairs but we made it just fine and that is with 2 ladies over 75. Would recommend a lot that drops you off at the terminal if the weather is not great.

Embarkation was a piece of cake and we arrived around 10:15am. We were in the gold boarding group and waited about 30 minutes before being allowed to board. Read more
