Cruise director Kendall Fire was horrible! She was annoying and looking for her own Jersey shore reality show. Wishing Lee had not been on vacation

Splendor is leaving Long Beach Sept 29 to go to Singapore for remodel, then on to Australia. As for all the kids, many Arizona schools were on spring break.

I was about to lose it when you said fire the cruise director but then I read a little farther and saw lee was on vacation. 😂😂. Lee is the best cruise director in the fleet, and it sucks he was on vacation. You really missed out.
