Review summary

We had a blast on this cruise.  It was actually our second time with this exact same itinerary, but a different ship.  The ports of call are great.  We only did one excursion through the ship this time.  Service all around was outstanding, and we were please with the food.  RC skimped a bit here and there with teeny shrimp and/or scallops, but the servers were always more than eager to bring out extra portions.  Two complaints about the cruise - the first was the outdated décor of the ship.  It is badly in need of refurbishment.  After just going on a new Disney ship last year, our accommodations were a big disappointment.  The space was fine for the two of us, but all the furniture and fixtures were so old, and our couch was stained.  The second complaint is the entertainment on board.  The comedians were awesome, and the ice show was truly outstanding, but the shows on the remaining nights with the RC singers and dancers were sub par.  Dancers were out of sync, and the singers were annoying and lacking of talent.  Both the cruise director and the assistant were by far the best we've seen, and the evening adult game shows were hilarious.  Great money spent, overall we had a fabulous time.
