Background info: I traveled with my mom and my boyfriend for to celebrate my 30th birthday.

Embarkment: Easy Peasy! We drove down from NJ the day of the cruise. It was a short 1 hour drive and the port is right next to 95. Parking was $105, and it's a very short walk to the ship from the lot. We arrived at around 11 and after a short wait, parked and started the check in process. In no time we were on the Lido deck enjoying our first DOD ( mom had hot tea lol ).

Cabin: We took advantage of a last minute upgrade and went from an OV on deck 1 to an extended balcony on deck 6. The cabin was spacious and comfortable. I LOVE the shower system on the ship. It was plenty big enough and the hot water was plentiful. Storage was a bit of an issue with 3 people in one cabin. Read more
