It took us over 2 hours by taxi to cover the 11 km from the hotel to the pier because of the extreme evening traffic, and we barely made it in time to check in. Be sure to leave early!!! The atmosphere on the ship was great, and the staff was super friendly and attentive. The Filipino band was outstanding, and the food was top-notch. The two hours on the ship flew by. It was a wonderful experience, and since it was our first wedding anniversary, we received a small cake with a candle as a little gesture. An all-around perfect evening…
