Condition of the Rhapsody

[mark53]

We're crusing from San Diego to Hawaii on Sept. 18. I've read on a couple of previous posts that the Rhapsody was going in for refurb. Does anyone know if this has happened?

We are getting ready to sail from Galvston to San Diego on Sunday. This will be my third sailing on the rhapsody and my Mom's fifth. We love the ship so much and the crew that we had to do a Bon Voyage tour through the Panama Canal. Anyway, the ship went into dry dock last Fall in Alabama. They have updated some things like carpet in the rooms and new sheets. The Windjammer has also been reconfigured a bit (I think to accomodate those who spend most of their time eating there as opposed to the dining room). Its a lovely small ship and we have been quite impressed with the staff. Due to the fact that the ship is heading to the Orient, they are bringing in new crews from Asia and not renewing contracts for many of our Indian/ Eastern Europe friends. You will have a wonderful time Im sure.

Will you board in San Diego or Ensenada? I heard that passengers for your sailing will be bussed to Ensenada to embark. Have fun!
