 When you see da da da hum the music of the Twilight Zone. We enter the Port of NYC to board the ship on Friday. Our luggage was handle properly. We waited to be process, only to be send to the wrong line, and the computers were down. Finally we enter the ship. It departed as schedule, but strange no music, but plenty of smokers.

We enter our cabins which were quite accommodating, but we we could here neighbors next door every time they close the door leading to the balcony.

Saturday and Sunday we were at sea, everything seem normal, for our first port of call was Puerto Rico. Instead because of the Hurricane we enter into Port Carnival in Florida. We took 2 days and now in Florida on Monday, oh yes, there was excursions to see Mickey Mouse. But we seen him before, and New Yorkers do not want to see another mouse, that is why we left New York. But behold there was a bus for 10 dollars a person, you can ride all day in a circle, it went from Wal-Mart to the Mall to Cocoa Beach. As we got to the all 30 plus passengers had to exit and take a smaller van to the Beach. We were not told this when we boarded the bus, some holler, some scream, but to no avail for we were in the Twilight Zone. So we went back on the bus and back to the ship. Back on sea instead of St Thomas and the Grand Turk we were told, we would go to Nassau and Freeport. Freeport was a joke as I look out the balcony on Tuesday. Just a few cheap shops and rain. The scenery was one of a cargo loading dock, but wait as the journey continue we would go deeper into the Twilight Zone. (da da da da da). That Tuesday evening around 5 the Captain inform us that corporate headquarters decided to take us not to Nassau, but to Newport Rhode Island. (Enter the Twilight Zone da da da da da da.)People were just beside themselves, the captain insist we were getting 3 ports, plus he mention he's never been to Rhode Island. Whose cruise was it, I began to wonder, the captain or the paying passengers. People starting taking their gratuity off the charge accounts. Imagine passengers from Connecticut taking 8 7 days to wind up At Rhode Island. Its the hurricane fault, the captain insisted. I wonder why not let us off in NYC Friday,and give us a one day credit but then again were in the Twilight Zone. Da Da Da da Da da.

Cabin Review

Cabin was comfy for 3 people. Nice and quiet. Only bad thing you could the doors close on he adjoining balcony, but great view, we love it, near the elevators
