We were on board with a drink in hand within 20 minutes of arriving at the port. Can't say enough about the entire crew; it always amazes me how our steward and wait staff remember our names after meeting us only once. Truly the friendliest and most hard working people.
We were lucky enough to be chosen for the "Chef's tasting" on the first night. That entailed a tour of the kitchen (not a crumb on the floor)and tasting of every item that would be on the menu that evening while the Chef explained what went in the dish as well as how it was cooked...truly an experience I will never forget!
We always choose to disembark with our luggage. We were told to meet at a certain spot for 6:30am and they would begin to disembark at 6:45. We were off the ship, through Customs and in a taxi by 7:10.
We were 1 deck below the casino so I got to sing along with the band while in bed!
