Review summary

For a ship of this quality to not have outstanding speciality restaurants and excellent main dining is a shame...otherwise, the ship was great. One recommendation is too make sure smokers are aware of the very limited opitions to enjoy their habit--especially cigar and pipe smokers. They almost forced you to smoke in a life boat towed behind the ship! They could have improved the shore excursions and eliminate the special buying stops for handicrafts and wine unless specifically directed to that kind of shopper.
