Last Wednesday we joined Pacific Dawn for their PNG cruise – our first cruise. We did not know what to expect although research had told us that our ship was in the ‘modest fare’ bracket.
Our cabin was fine, small but fine. Our balcony could have been a little wider and less rusty. There is plenty of food on-board and one can eat from 5.30am and keep going until at least 10.30pm.
Our first two days on board were at-sea days, the activities are far from exciting, but given we came on the cruise for the PNG experience, it didn’t bother us. Between books, crosswords and meals, there was enough to fill those days. The weather was ok, you know you are on a ship but the movements were fairly gentle.
