Sail Date: Sep 2012

We picked Princess because a number of friends had enjoyed the line. We enjoyed a day before and a day after in Vancouver which is a lovely small/large city. Embarkation was very organized and moved along quickly. We found our stateroom and appreciated the fact that it was immediately available. The rooms are smaller than other lines but perfectly adequate for 2 people. The closet/bathroom space I thought was generous and well organized. We enjoyed a leisurely lunch in the MDR and then explored the ship. our luggage was in our room when we returned from exploring. We thought the inside was tasteful and like the compact three story atrium. We seemed to gravitate there in the late afternoon every day to enjoy food, drink, music and people watching.

I appreciated the cruise line's policy of allowing passenger's to bring a couple bottles of wine on board at embarkation and at ports as we could spend time on our balcony watching the world go by and sipping wine.

The smoking policy is fairly rigid and my husband never did find out where he could relax and smoke his vacation cigar so it went back home with him. I think he missed being able to sit on the balcony after dinner mid-cruise, watch the wake and enjoy that once a year cigar.
