We loved the different zones with all the different eateries offering different cuisines - highly recommend the Guy Fieri’s BBQ place. Even though it is a huge ship it never felt overcrowded. Our kids loved the Dr. Seuss themed kids club, with the Thing 1 & Thing 2 Birthday Breakfast being a huge hit.Read More
