Hello to all!!! This was our first time cruising with Royal Caribbean and we were very happy with this cruise line. We have cruised with with many other lines before, but I enjoyed this ship the most so far (with the exception of the Delta Steam Boat Company, you have to try this one in one word -- AMAZING).
Boarding in Barcelona was quick and easy, very efficient. We got to our room and the lay-out was nice, room was clean and our cabin steward was very attentive.
Our first port was Marseilles, France, and the ship was docked quite far from town and we were bussed in to the city. Marseilles has a beautiful port but we decided not hang around too long and went back to the ship and relaxed had a soda and sat at the Atrium Pool which was beautiful. The pool is glass enclosed with Roman statues and lots of marble throughout. By the way, this is an adult only pool but these rules are not enforced and sometimes there are far too many kids running around.
