I noticed that someone recently sent a review for the same time period as we did and the report made negative comments. I have to disagree.
Embarkation: No problem as it went very smoothly
Dining: Excellent dining. I loved the choices with the buffet and the fine dining especially with the choice of open dining versus dining with required times. We liked the open diving. The food was great. The chocolate desert was the best we have ever seen anywhere. I recently read a review which stated the buffet was bland. This is not true. It is an excellent buffet. I think the problem is that people are subject to so much food that they become easily critical. There is nothing to criticize here.
