We enjoyed our cruise on the Explorer. There were a few things that could have been improved.
First, the boarding process was held up a little, we heard rumors what might have happened, but only rumors. The worst part of the boarding was our fellow passengers. You're on vacation, relax, you will get on the ship, there will be plenty of food in the WindJammer. Be patient, the elevators will get you there, or you can take the steps.
Second, changing from Lipton to "Fair Trade" tea. That was a mistake. My wife picked up some tea bags for me at our first stop. All I could taste was paper when I used the "Fair Trade" tea.
The balcony was a very good size. It had two tables, two chairs, two lounges. The hallway was very quiet. We like the size of the walk in closet, we were able to hang all of our clothes that needed to be hung up, with out them being crushed. This is the second time we have had a JS. My only concern is the bathtub. It is a little bit of a step up into the tub, and if somebody has a balance problem, there could be a fall.
