Review summary

Overall it's disappointing. I guess it's just a bad idea to put so many people on a ship for so many days. Cruising is only fun on the first day, and then it's just endless dullness on the sea. If you want to visit those ports, just fly there directly and spend a decent amount of time exploring those places. Our last sea day was windy and it was not fun to be on a rocky ship. Personally, I will never go on a cruise again.

Why do they have to turn the volume so high. We were almost deaf after the show.

It took so long. We had to stay in a hotel at night because we didn't have enough time to make it back home.

Maybe this is all Shaq's fault. People must think he's walking around the whole cruise making sure everyone has fun.
