Creator's Key Takeaways

I had the earliest Embark time I've ever had in all of my cruises

walking onto the ship was amazing it reminded me of Carnival vansia the crew was excited they were happy they were welcoming us

the service was Blazing I tell you from the time we got to the restaurant to the time we had gotten the appetizers eaten the appetizers gotten the main it was about 20 minutes 25 minutes max

I ended my first 24 hours the way I started my first 24 hours with some more barbecue pizza because I loved it that much
