Review summary

We've been on maybe 15 cruises and love cruising.  Even though this ship was updated, it was short of expectations.  It rocked noticeably most of the time. We were told it didn't have the stablizers the new ones have.  Also we heard creeks on most levels. Food was just ok; not much difference in menu selections. I paid $250 for photo pkg and then another $20 for digital.  I did it on line so I received 30 pics + add'l 5.  There were 4 couples of us and I didn't read the description well enough.  Either myself or my husband had to be in EVERY pic for it to be in the pkg.  And the digital ones were the same 35 pic already selected.  Again - my fault but is was very disappointing.

Love the Dawn. Food is awesome, too! I guess everyone is just different. Never heard a complaint on food until this.
