Review summary

1st of all - teach the captain a lot more English - Greek accent doesn't do it. the crew was polite but needs a lot more English understanding- nice people in general . Costs of drinks were out of line - too expensive and the tip added is a little too much s/b 5% - Some of the islands wern't a good place to visit. We don't need to see all that poverty - its a vacation cruise, so lets keep it nice. Last stop was too short - left a 2pm - then sailed very slowly to PR. ? CNN was the worst way to keep Americans informed - so what other nationalaties are on board - give us a choice of what to watch - TV was very poor and a better selection is needed. (don't want to sound so negative, but you asked.) Add some good American beers, this is not a UK or EU tour. Try Yuengling, traditonal lager from PA, USA - not every body drinks light beer and Bud is a kids beer, too sweet. Don't get me wrong - you ship was very clean and well kept and the crew are excelent people to deal with. Some of the things I mentioned I discussed with other American people on board. Little things make or break an impresson --- today I have a cold and seem to be a little grumpy.

Pros: the weather, food, people we met

Cons: CNN stunk - we are Americans - why brodcast UK French and African news - wake up and give US News all the time - The US finacial market rules and the market went up 5% - so what's the market index - wake up
