James4me Posted November 16, 2019 #26 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Awwww my favorite ship as it was our honeymoon in May, 1998. She was brand new back then, had I think 5 sailings before our trip. Great ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carnivaladdix120 Posted November 16, 2019 #33 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Great review! Can't wait to read more 🙂 I live in south Florida and woke up to a chilly 64 degrees this morning so I can imagine it's cold up there, but hopefully sunny!

boomhower Posted November 16, 2019 Author #34 Share Posted November 16, 2019 And we are off. We will find somewhere close to the port to chill at. Motel is definitely a no go. It was clean but that’s all it had going for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomhower Posted November 16, 2019 Author #37 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) And through security and at the priority waiting area. Literally no line at all, just rolled on in. Smooth as it could possibly be. Stuck that photo of the breeze as the elation couldn’t be seen from the entrance.

Glad you posted it was a picture of the Breeze...my all time favorite, but I like the smaller ships for different reasons I like the Dream class. Looking forward to the rest of your review! Have tons of fun! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got the room for me but I won’t spend much time there. I spend the days on the Lido and evenings in piano bar or casino bar. However my wife spends a good time in there and I’m sure she will enjoy the views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
