Review summary

The cruise was fun. We did get to see the leaves change. Travelers should be aware of possible weather conditions during this time of cruise. We were impacted by Tropical Storm Melissa and missed the Port of Halifax. Also, we incurred a “Bomb Cyclone”; which, caused us to leave Boston earlier than planned & arrived in Cape Canaveral later than planned. Many people became sea sick. We were the lucky ones that did not get sea sick.
