Review summary

We have been on 17 cruises and took this same cruise 2 years ago. The ship is wonderful and well maintained. There are plenty of activities for all interests from "doing nothing but relaxing to participating in one event after another." The quality of the food in the dining room was not as good as the last time but that is not what we cruise for anyway. Anytime Dining option is fantastic. We could go to dinner whenever we were ready not just early or late. We missed the familiarity with our waiter that you get on a regular dining time at the same table each night, but the flexibility was well worth it. Balcony rooms are wonderful and reasonably priced since there are so many of them on this ship.
