Review summary

NOT ALOT OF TIME AT PORTS, NOT EXCEPTIONAL ENTERTAINMENT, EXCEPT THE ROYAL CARIBBEAN TALENT SHOW MEMBERS! THEY WERE GOOD. FOOD CHOICES AT DINNER WERE NOT AS GOOD AS OTHER ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES. NOT A FUN CRUISE BUT VERY RELAXING. EVERYTHING ELSE SEEMED TO GO AS PLANNED! I CAME BACK FEELING LIKE I ACCOMPLISHED A RELAXING SUNNY VACATION, WITH LOTS OF BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDINGS CENTERED FROM THE CARIBBEAN BEACHES, & GORGEOUS BLUE OCEAN INLETS!

COULD NOT FIND TERMINAL BLVD, STREET NOT MARKED FOR CARS COMING FROM THE SOUTH OF N.J.TURNPIKE. MAYOR NEEDS TO DO MUCH BETTER JOB OF POSTING THAT STRRE NAME SO PEOPLE CAN FIND THE SHIP. ENDED UP PARKING 3 MILES FROM SHIP & BEING SHUTTLED TO SHIP FROM WHERE I PARKED MY CAR!

King's Wharf, Bermuda
