The warm, personal, often humorous observations of Sunny and Al Lockwood will introduce you to colorful characters, enchanting sunsets, and authentic experiences that will stay with you long after you've finished reading. At the time of their sailing, Norwegian Cruise Line's 19-deck Epic was the third largest cruise ship in the world.
