Thanks for the great thread! I would be very interested in your impressions of the ship: which areas of the ship you enjoy the most, what activities you think are the most fun, how smooth (or not) are embarkation and debarkation.

I just got through reading through all 65 pages of this thread! (Not in one sitting, LOL) A big, big thank you to all of you who have been regular posters on this thread and have provided so much of your time & energy helping visitors to your city! This thread is an invaluable resource and I have gotten a lot of good ideas here!

I will be driving in from Tennessee in August and I'm considering staying in the Brandon area. It looks like I could just take Adamo Drive all the way into Channelside. I was confused when I zoomed in on the Google map, though, because there are a lot of arrows showing on Channelside Dr and some of the surrounding streets. Are a lot of these streets one way?

Is there a better way to get to the port from Brandon?

here's an approach that will most likely work nicely - try the telephone. I know that's old fashion, but it tends to work quite well in a pinch. That way, you can ask for and reserve what you want, asks lots of questions, etc.

Ken, this really cracked me up! It really says something about the way things have changed that we have to be reminded that the phone is an option. :D
