YouTube Video Description

As I get older birthdays are more important to me and what better way to spend your birthday but on a cruise. I chose MSC Meriviglia this year and it a very good experience. I originally planed to cruise solo but my son said "mom I'll go with you" I couldn't believe my ears! We had some very good quality time together. Our night in Orlando pre cruise was a blast. I recommend Universal City Walk for a pre-cruise activity if you are staying in Orlando pre cruise. You won't be disappointed. Embarkation day was not as bad as some of the reviews. We got to port 10:40 am and we were on the ship a little before noon. A four day cruise is just not enough time for me at all!
