Review summary

We wanted a nice relaxing cruise for the holiday, someplace where the temps were moderate for that time of year and somewhere in the US. We chose the American Cruise Line and were on the American Jazz out of New Orleans. The excursions we chose were informative and even entertaining due to the history guides and bus drivers. The best though was the Thanksgiving meal that was provided, of course turkey plus three other types of meat, various sides to numerous to mention and a table of deserts. And I did not have to prepare one thing! That was the table talk among the ladies at our table. We decided this was the best way to spend Thanksgiving. I did have a moment of pity for the chef who put out this spread-but he at least had an army of helpers to prepare AND clean up. I think next year I need to be aboard another ACL ship somewhere.
