Glad you enjoyed it. I’ve seen several negative reviews recently of this ship and itinerary. Some say the food was horrible. I’m not sure how some seem to find a way to be miserable on a cruise. If someone can’t find something you can eat or something enjoyable to do, that says much more about them than the ship or cruise line.
