Money can add up quickly on a cruise.. Glad you had a good time. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, an Early November Cruise should have been relatively cheap. I hope they didn't sock you with drink dining and Internet packages that you probably didn't need

We loved cruising on panorama, as this was your first cruise. Maybe you didn’t know what to expect. There are so many free food options that are delicious, don’t know why you’re saying food is expensive.
