# previous cruises: 10 to 20
Date of Trip: April 16, 2003
Itinerary: Bahamas
The food was excellent, I had a king size bed-the largest bed in the last 12 cruises. Service was excellent. Comfortable. Port of Cape Canaveral quite a ride from the airport.
Comfortable. Excellent facilities for walking the deck. Lido Lounge was excellent for Breakfast and Lunch.
In 12 cruises, food was within the top two. Service within the top 5.
A lot of space, more than any other ship I have been on. Tub/shower, ample closet space. Deck #1 noisy. Just above the thrusters.
Cruise ship average. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Ports- Freeport- very good stop- Nassau-5 ships in that day, they handled them well. Private Island- Best I have ever seen. They have their act together. Great swimming, plenty to do and very good food service.
Everyone seemed agreeable and easy to get along with. A lot of children, but they were not a problem for the adults.
