Creator's Key Takeaways

We found a much more affordable price than the that parking anyway at Asphalt Lots.

GG's was good. It was good. Everything I had was tasty.

The piano bar entertainer new today from the Philippines... she is just as phenomenal and I loved her song choices.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use Asphalt Lots for affordable and convenient parking in Norfolk.
Consider booking specialty dining on embarkation day for a complimentary bottle of wine.
Check the digital trivia and mobile activities for onboard entertainment.
