The smell from the toliet was awful by the end of the cruise. A fresh smelling cleaner should be used daily. I do not believe that the stateroom attendant was responsible. She cleaned a couple times a day.

Ports of call

Bar Harbor, Maine

The best lobster anywhere at Dimilos (floating restaurant) for a great price. My husband and I split the Lobster Club! Very generous servings.

Peggy's Cove. Our tour guide, Ellen was excellent. She talked about the city's history (without notes) the whole tour. It was so frefreshing to be in the company (Ellen) of someone praising the US. We were overwhelmed and very appreciatative.

This was a rainy, cold day. We bought tickets for the "reversing falls" and the Bay of Fundy. After we boarded the bus, we were told that we would be changing the bus 3 times for the "Hop On & Hop Off tour which was $38. each. When we were told we had to wait about 10 minutes in the cold rain, we went back to the ship. It was miserable. We would have loved to have seen the "reversing falls"
