My husband and I with our two daughters, son and his wife with a three year old went on Carnival dream Eastern, a couple of weeks ago. We sailed on Carnival dream back in Dec, western cruise:)We had a blast and decided to try eastern Caribbean. Once again we had a blast! We are not complainers and don't expect the world to revolve around us.
Our food was always hot, the longest we had to wait in line was about five min, and we can't blame the staff. My husband and I thought it was funny to see how long it took people to figure out a lunch selection on the buffet line:)
Our first port was Nassau:although we are not fans, we enjoyed the beach.
