be aware that all staff talk to others on the ship, do not complain about a food item to anyone anywhere because it will get back to the staff one way or another.

We love long cruises and sea days. The longer the better for us. At least you gained the knowledge that you don't like long cruises.

Thank you for the review. We will be doing this cruise next year except in reverse (Miami to L.A.). Bummer about the rain. Curious what happened at the Haven restaurant.
