Good Ship, enjoy

Bring a flashlight for your cabin- very dark! Bring a three pronged 11V outlet for your phone charging etc. Nice to have satellite internet; it worked well for emails, etc, but way too pricey @ approximately 40 cents/minute depending upon the plan.

Port side if you leave from Chile is best for viewing scenery.

Be aware....to get to deck 5 dining room stay on deck 5 from forward or midshipmen. Otherwise, there's a block which makes you go up and down extra stairs.

Buy the ticket at the last minute would be much cheaper. Make sure take warm jacket and rain coat with you for glaciers.

When you board the ship, find out what is scheduled for that day. We came upon a raffle being held in the Gym while just walking around. Although we were too late to put our name in the raffle, we were able to pick up a promotional card for a discounted massage and facial session-- wonderful!

Hire a translator. These folks don't speak english

Read all of the "When & Where" flyers you get each night and highlight all of the activities for the next day.

Fun piano bar. Skip Pinnacle grill. Canelletos is great. Make sure your room is not below a common area.

Old ship needing renovations. Outstanding.

Like all cruise ships they are trying to get you to buy stuff. Don;t buy a watch or jewelry.

Disregard advice on Pinterest about needing to provide more storage for the room. I had brought a shoe organizer to hang in the bathroom; ended not using it. I also brought magnets to hang things but never needed it. The steward brought me an extension cord so I also didn't need the outlet I brought with me.

Get ready to eat al lot of good food all of the time.

Be prepared for the age of the ship.

It's a smaller ship, so there is a greater chance of seeing the same people often, and getting to know them better.

Enjoy this beautiful ship and all it offers you.

Wait until the ship has been re-done!

Don't go on it if you want to go around Cape Horn.
