Review summary

This cruise was amazing. Sole purpose of cruise was to see the Panama Canal. However, most of the passengers were much older (65+). Alot of walkers and scooters and cranky old people. Entertainment staff was amazing, however, the activities were very short. Nothing for more than 1/2 hour, regardless if the crowd was having fun and enjoying themselves. They would have a full room of dancing and partying only to stop and change gears to the next scheduled thing which was usually a quieter activity.

Going next year, hubby will be 66 and me 59. We run, lift weights, and do yoga. On Anthem recently we took the stairs 12 flights several times a day. So we just do our own thing and don't let age define us. We enjoy meeting all kinds of ppl. Good to know about staff.
