Just got back today from a nice 4 nighter on Monarch of the Seas with my wife, two daughters, and 4 grand children. It was a nice cruise. Coco Cay was nice, but had a few jelly fish (can&#39;t controll that now can we?). Nassau was good. We went to the aquarium under Atlantis. Very nice. Second time there.<br />But friends, I got to tell you. . . after cruising Carnival and RCCI I&#39;ve got to say Carnival gives you more bang for your buck. Food&#39;s better, ships got more to do. . . but, RCCI (at least the Monarch) has the friendliest, most helpfull staff I have ever come into contact with&#33;&#33;&#33;
