Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Loved it all; naturally the specialty restaurants were superb. The only downside was the the desserts in the Lido.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Mostly listened to music, read and played games in the Crow's Nest. My husband and I were quite impressed with the selection of books in the new library. More games, such as scrabble are needed in the Crow's Nest.

Entertainment

Loved the music, especially the BB King All Star Band and the Piano player/singer.

We had no children with us.
