We drove in from VA and used the parking at the port. The process to park was very fast and we got a spot inside. We arrived a few minutes before the earliest time we could. For example, we arrived at 12:45 and we were supposed to get there no earlier than 1. Anyone who complains about the parking being in a wharehouse or the port being ugly is spoiled rotten! I was grateful to park inside, and Charelston was pretty. The embarkation process was smooth and fast. I registered a credit card before hand and had all the documents we needed, which helps a lot. Do your research!

We went straight to our room which wasn't ready yet, but we were able to drop off our bags. We got our sign and sail cards hole punched and had them on lanyards along with small hand sanitizers. If we hadn't, I'm sure I would've lost mine. Then we went straight to the buffet on the lido deck. Even though it can be busy sometimes, we never waited long at the buffet and could always find a great table next to the windows. In the buffet, a server comes around to refill you drinks which is nice! The selection of food isn't a lot but it was pretty good. In Nassau they had Bahamian food and I loved the conches! They were delicious, too bad my stomach did not agree!

We then confirmed our dinning time. We were wait listed for early dinning and didnt get it so they assigned us anytime dinning. The only time we had to wait to be seated was on formal night. I didn't mind standing in line feeling beautiful and surrounded by beautiful people. The line moved fast! Read more
