Very nice and comfortable. I was traveling with my elderly mother-in-law and appreciated all the assistance during our stay.

Spend time in the Crow's Nest - we spotted whales during most of the cruise from here.

How wonderful that you were in a Neptune suite! We all wish that more time was spent in ports.
