First, I try to be positive when reviewing vacations, and after 6 cruises, I don't expect miracles. We booked the Sensation at the last minute to celebrate by sister's 30th bday...wanted to sail Monarch of the Seas (Royal Caribbean), but it was filled. PLENTY of rooms on the Sucksation though. Go figure!

Check-in was smooth, lots of friendly people and even one woman with a pom pom cheering...we needed that cheering for sure!! When we stepped on to the boat, there was no one to greet us, and we were immediately overwhelmed with the smell of sewage!! I just brushed it off, and we headed for the stateroom. Stateroom was very nice, however, you could only see the television from one bed and there were 3 of us in a room. We headed up to the pool deck and easily found a seat. Carnival should rethink Navy lounge chairs and towels....the heat was torture and trust me, I'm used to the heat!! Am used to seeing the cruise director, but Skip,was a NO SHOW the entire trip...that job should TOTALLY be Orlando's.

We went to the buffett that night which was TERRIBLE!! We ended up having to eat sandwiches, which would have been good, if they were warm in the middle. Sang Karaoke that night which was fun, but you felt like you were standing in the middle of a cafeteria..the lights weren't even low. Family reuinions were every where with matching shirts, and if you weren't apart then forget it! You could now smell nothing but smoke along with the sewage smell. Drunk people (and I drink!!) being dragged to bed, people making out so much they were one step away from you know what!
