Editorial Summary

The creator shares her initial impressions following the first day of a group cruise on the Discovery Princess. She describes the ship as a pristine and beautiful vessel that feels brand new, specifically noting the large theater and the comfortable deluxe balcony stateroom. The creator highlights the success of her group dining arrangements, noting that her party of nearly 100 people was able to access a designated reserved area in the dining hall. She expresses satisfaction with the main dining room food, specifically praising the pot roast, and commends the lively cruise director and the efficient service from her stateroom steward. While the overall experience has been positive, she offers one critique regarding the ship's layout. She suggests that the aft infinity pool should be an adults-only area, as she found it crowded with young children, which detracted from the relaxing atmosphere of the wake view. Despite this, she concludes that the ship is impressive and she is looking forward to the upcoming entertainment.
