Norwegian Dawn

Sail date: September 26, 2010

Ship: Norwegian Dawn

Review summary

The ship was clean and pretty. When eating freestyle, sections of the food line would be closed causing a shortage of seating on the side with the food. The tea was the worst. Coffee was not the best. Hair dryers were very heavy. No lobster night on a trip to Canada and New England!! The rooms were large for a cruise ship and kept clean. Bed and pillows were hard. For older people, they were uncomfortable. The staff and the shows were wonderful!!

Wonderful museum showing Maude Lewis' home and paintings. Fog hindered our view. That was just Mother Natures' fault not the town or ship.
