There are not enough accolades to describe this cruise.
We found the Activities staff exceptional! They were approachable and fun! There
were numerous activities and my husband and I took advantage of many. We never
got involved before but the staff was so pleasant and convincing. We had a
blast!
We met several people with whom we still correspond that we met during our daily
trivia.
The only disappointment was we spent several hours building our ship and entered
the ship building contest. We combed the islands for just the right things. Our
ship held the required 6 pack of coke that floated on one of the hot tubs (:.
However, a couple of young children entered the contest. The vote was determined
by applause. The children won): Our only suggestion is that they have a adult
and a children's category.
We participated in the talent show etc, etc.
The assistant activities director was AWESOME! We want to revisit this ship so
we will be able to see her again.
The food was great! We especially enjoyed the Lido Deck for a more casual
dinner. The food was just as good.
PS Don't try the danish and raisin bread I'm still trying to lose the extra
pounds. They were deadly (:
We had a wonderful time and recommend it to everyone!
Happy Cruising
