Review summary

This was a VERY last minute cruise and it was a nice surprise. Almost no kids were on the boat and the guests were a bit older. No rowdies or hooligans on this cruise and I didnt miss that at all. Unlike the larger ships, this one had many places one could just sit and watch the sea. It was definately one of the better cruises I have taken,

Disembarkation

Quite a bit of walking, but no long waits. Customs only looked at passports and allowed us top pass.
