To start with:
My wife and I are both in our 40's and we have been on 6 cruises before this one. We drove from Texas to Miami this time instead of flying to advoid bag fee's for checked bags.
Embarkation:
We had an aft facing balcony (9297). It was in a wonderful location and offered fantastic views and a fine place to get away from everyone and everything. The closets were plenty big and there was more than enough storage.
