Review summary

The experience was fun, we were lucky with the weather. The ship is fine and the crew lovely. We would have liked an adult section for the spa, hot tub inside. I have done this on Norwegian. The entertain was okay but a little crowded. The staff at the Vinebar was understaffed. Some other areas-the land section were very understaffed.

Totem poles, eagles and lighthouses was not great. The captain made poliitical jokes and remarks about houses we passed that I thought were inappropriate.
