Review summary

Our favorite part was that we could relax, play or eat any time we wanted!  We planned excursions in every port and loved it.  At the same time we could have spent our time in port on board or exploring the port area.  The restaurant was wonderful.  We loved the wait staff!  We met so many wonderful people and everyone was happy! 

 

Tendering back to the ship was an issue in both ports where we had to tender.  People waited in like in excess of an hour and half.  We didn't because we "parked" ourselves in the shade where we could monitor the line.  This probably cannot be avoided but there's got to be a better way than to have to stand in a line for that long.  Luckily the weather was pleasant.  I could not have done it in the heat of the summer.

 

The most special thing after the memories we made, is the beautiful photos we had made in the Dreams Studio.  We have gorgeous black and white photos that rival our wedding photos!

Could not have asked for anything better. We were not prepared to only have one outlet in the stateroom and our steward was very accommodating by supplying us with an extension cord and a surge protector so we could plug in our CPAP machines.

Ship tip

Go to the Dreams Studio! The comedy club was a lot of fun! Take a little time to learn the ship because there are some places you cannot get to without going someplace else first!!! Hidden treasures everywhere.
