Review summary

The Crown Princess was a nice ship. didn't have the glitz and glamour that other cruise line ships had. Food in Dining room was fair, steaks were tough and meat was fatty. You would think that being in Alaska you would experience Salmon fixed in many different ways but didn't. We missed the enthsiasm of the cruise directors in getting people involved w/ all sotrs of programs and games onboard, unlike Carnival and Royal Carr. Don't get me wrong we had a great time seeing the Glaciers and the ports, just lacked something on board ship itself.
