Review summary

after having our 2020 cruise cancelled it was a little worrisome to be back on the ship, However all my fears were gone as soon as I stepped on the ship. The cleanliness of the ship and the protocols in place were well thought out. Time to get back to life!

Ship tip

don't miss the library and Barista, a nice place to sit and read and relax. Also, game room has puzzles if you are a fan. A great way to spend a break from the sun.
