From last cruise things improved, poor old Dream still looks like a rusty tub, don't know if the yardbirds know how to paint a ship

Loved sharing experiences with the kids but the cruises just the 2 of us take are certainly more relaxing!

If my grand kids were unruly and couldn't behave properly I would also not take them Other passengers don't need to be exposed to that.
