Review summary

Breakfast and lunch at the buffet restaurant is good. There are lots of attendants at the buffet restaurant and tables get clean up pretty fast. Dinner at the main dinning room is not bad either except I do not like the time arrangement, 2 choice of dinner time, either 5:45pm or 7:45pm. You are required to sit at the same table and at the same restaurant. Another I hate is captain night which request you bring a suit. The entertainment on board is pretty good. Since it is a cruise go around Japan, more than half are Japanese. The on-shore excursion for Japanese speaking is about 30% cheaper than the English speaking tours.
