We had a wonderful cruise for our 30th anniversary. We loved the itinerary and because it was December the ports were not crowded at all. Norovirus was onboard but we never caught it. The staff was busy cleaning daily. It turned out to be a non issue for us and most others we spoke to.
We had anytime dining and the food was excellent in all the dining rooms including the specialty dining. The international cafe was very good, as usual. We went to the pub lunches in the Wheelhouse Bar which had a good variety of food. There was a long line but it went quickly and was worth the wait.
We enjoyed the shows and Lisa, the cruise director was excellent. There were 3 shows a night so there was never a problem getting a seat. They had some very good lectures that were packed. One we especially liked was from a man who had interviewed Titanic survivors.
