Creator's Key Takeaways

she debuted on her maiden voyage in 1998 she is 71,9 190 gross tons and 855 ft in length 11 decks tall

we really enjoyed being kind of closer to the front on the second floor of the main theater

it is so expensive so we do let little man go in there one day out of the cruise for about you know 30 minutes to an hour

we actually enjoyed it although we lost a decent amount of money we could just not find a game that was willing to even work with us

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get to the main theater about 15 minutes before the show starts for good seats
If you want a place by the pool, get a lounger pretty early
Try to play mini golf on a day where the ship is docked because it can get windy
Break off from the sailaway party a little bit before the end to experience going under the bridge
