SJNB Posted December 17, 2016 #26 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Would you be able to post pictures of the dining room menus? We sail on her Feb 25th. Same itinerary with the addition of St. Kitts. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love2Cruz2015 Posted December 18, 2016 Author #28 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hi all, sorry haven't had time to check in today, but clearly hectic on the first day with check in, unpacking and exploring. Just got back to our room so I have a lot of goodies to share. First impression-the ship is beautiful and brand spankin new so not much to criticize. Check in at port was fast. Room key now laced in your mailbox instead of at check on n. So let's start with some pics! First close up of the Vista-from 3rd story parking across from the port. First thing you see when you walk in, beautiful! It's clearly Christmas time! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewliana Posted December 18, 2016 #29 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Yeah!! You are onboard and the photos are fantastic! So glad you didnt have a nightnmare with embarkation. The reviews of that process have not been good! Sweet dreams!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love2Cruz2015 Posted December 18, 2016 Author #30 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Heading to our room Very pretty nautical theme in the corridors of Family Harbor-more of a Cape Cod type decor than Caribbean in this section. Also pretty artwork on the landings, all different and unique Our room, very spacious-it wasn't advertised as such, but it's a handicapped room.

Love2Cruz2015 Posted December 18, 2016 Author #36 Share Posted December 18, 2016 We have your time dining-we had to check in on deck 5 and then proceeded to the Horizon dining room I had corn chowder-good and roast chicken which was good but forgot to get a pic of the chicken Tiramisu-good but was still frozen in the middle. My DD got strawberry bisque- she loved it. Then we went to the Christmas tree lighting- it was great, set to the Carol of the Bells song synchronized with the lights. They sang some Christmas songs as Matt got the crowd involved. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love2Cruz2015 Posted December 18, 2016 Author #38 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Piano bar Library Still have to check out Havana and many other places but that's what I got for today. Going to head to Atrium Lobby now as Matt has something going on. Missed the show tonight as my DD wanted to play games in the FH lounge. The movies on deck weren't appealing either. Tomorrow I have an 0800 massage appt. [emoji16] Stay tuned for more. P.s. I'll post the dining room menu tomorrow night.

Love2Cruz2015 Posted December 18, 2016 Author #39 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Oh wait, how can I forget? I had Guys for lunch today right after we checked in.

Love2Cruz2015 Posted December 18, 2016 Author #40 Share Posted December 18, 2016 First Impressions..... Overall, the ship's decor is very understated compared to older ships. It definitely follows the Breeze type design scheme. Not to say it is bland as there are great pops of color that really make an impact. Goes to show you can have subtlety while having really great design. Service: I met our room steward day 1, he was friendly, left robes and a towel animal for us at night. Dining room staff also nice. We'll be encountering different wait staff due to "my time". Food was served hot and fast. We went for dinner at 6pm so there wasn't much of a line at check in. Check in is on deck 5 at java cafe. They give you a ticket you present to the dining room. However when we walked past that area at around 7:30, there was a HUGE line so I made a note to self- it's either early or late for dinner. On day 1. Crowds seemed to be dispersed well. Also I received a notice in our stateroom during turn down. Due to weather, our itinerary will be changed. Basically reversed, so here is our new itinerary: People with excursions will just be moved to the new days. Stay tuned for Day 2.[emoji41] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcool Posted December 18, 2016 #46 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I like the change to the port of call I wish they had a cruise that would do this. But with less sea days. Out of FL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosethorn40 Posted December 18, 2016 #50 Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) Is the new Star Wars movie showing on the IMAX theater? Sadly, no. "Dr. Strange" & "Fantastic Beasts....." I am on this same cruise, but I will wait until I am home to post my photos/review. My experiences will be slightly different as I am traveling with my husband only. We are staying in the Havana area (Love it), have Thermal Suite passes (Enjoyable), and have several specialty dining planned. The ship is beautiful, and I am surprised by those that feel it lacks "Wow!" It is also full to the brim with people. I have heard we are at max capacity, including 900+ kids.
