Review summary

The ship, the ship's staff, the food, and most of the entertainment were excellent. Bar Harbor and Halifax are great to visit; Portland, Maine, and St. John NB are less interesting. The only negative comment is that smoking is still allowed in a few public areas of the ship and on stateroom balconies.
