Embarkation went pretty smoothly, though I guess I was supposed to know that the sign reading "Fun Card Passengers" really means "if you pre-registered online, use this line." The CCL employee processing our check-in must have been confused by my having all our documents and passports out and ready because she kept asking for them, not seeing them sitting right in front of her.
Our sailing was delayed by at least 90 minutes for some reason which seemed to throw off everything for the remainder of the cruise. Everything that evening (all shows, piano bar, Karaoke, etc.) was at least 30 minutes late (except the dining rooms which stayed on schedule).
Food was good, but not what I'd call great. Portion sizes were excellent (not too much, not too little) and the variety was good. Appetizers in particular were very good and a good variety was offered. I only had a salad once (and it tasted like it was out of the bags in the grocery store), opting for 2 different appetizers instead.
