The bathroom glasses were not changed for the entire trip. The attendant simply dried them with a towel and left them. I'm sure that wasn't the attendant's fault -- it's the ship policy. It wouldn’t surprise me if the same glasses are still there for the next cruise.
The shows were not particularly good. The showband was great, and was usually the best part of the show. The entertainers that had shows were not very high quality. A good guitar player is not necessarily a good entertainer.
Greg Sampson was the best piano bar player I've ever seen. And the Amber strings were always good. When Wes and the showband members had shows they were always good, although the individual members who had shows were not that great. I got the impression that they simply used band members as the entertainment because it was cheaper than having real entertainers.
OK, except for their policy of not putting in clean glasses.
We spent a few days in Santiago, then a day in Valparaiso before the cruise. Loved both cities.
We took one of the cabs outside to see some of the areas. We would have taken the ship's tour but the tour people were completely uninformed about the tour, and couldn't give any reason to take it. It was much cheaper outside, although the cab driver spoke little english.
We took a boat tour to several islands. Beautiful views; lots of birds and sea lions. The cruise people were useless in this. So we just got off the ship and went to the off-the-ship tour people.
