We are so happy to hear this went well. We debated going, but since it was their first time, thought we'd let them work out the kinks. :) We'll plan on it for next year, thanks to your great review! We agree that Caliente is a gorgeous resort.
Ahhhhhhhhh the memories....very well written article. It was my first cruise, so I tried to mentally store all the lovely (used my filter for the 'not-so-lovely' ones) sites, sounds, and smells..I can still almost smell the sea!
