As a Military Mom I get a thrill going past Mayport Naval Station and seeing all the ships. The entertainment hasn't yet been disappointing.
The upper deck is the place to be before and after gambling. I don't go past a staff member who is not smiling or asking if you need anything. Where else can you go to relax on the ocean, read a book, gamble a little money, people watch, have a decent lunch and enjoy live entertainment all for $35? Now the lunch buffet is a hit and miss kind of thing. I have been many times on this cruise and while I am not a huge gambling person I do enjoy the boat ride, entertainment and lunch. It is worth the drive just to enjoy the intimacy of the smaller ship. This boat while smaller than the Canaveral boat it is still full of fun and activities that keep everyone happy. I would like to give the Victory II out of Jacksonville Fl a huge shout out.
