Where do I begin to say that I think Celebrity just likes to squirt people with santizer. Once I arrived to Barcelona and was handed a letter stating about the gastrointestinal virus that lingered on the previous cruise, I said to myself, this is going to be interesting...

Embarkation: There were in the process of disinfecting the ship. I got on the shipo @ 3:30PM after waiting in the crowded terminal for almost 3 hours. Were were supposed to set ssail at 5:00 and we left port at 6:30...We were told to go to the oceanview cafe which is the buffet area for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The place was packed. It was was too small to accomodate 2800 people at once. I was frustrated getting a seat for 1. Luckily I met a nice employee named Gladys and she found me a seat. Lugging my carry-on bags. I managed to eat whatever I was able to carry with me. No trays, just plates to carry to your table. Already I was not liking this...

Cabin: I was on the Deck 7 and my cabin was the total opposite I was experiencing just 7 floors up. Cabin was great. After the hassle of lunch, I was relieved to be in my own sanctuary with balcony included. I relaxed a bit then explored the ship.
