This was a position changing cruise through the Panama Canal. It's very popular with Vancouver residents going both ways. It was our second cruise and we were worried about it's length. It was no problem it became a second home for us.

The ship was very impressive clean combined with excellent service in all departments. I have read some of the other reviews and it is as if they were on a different cruise.

The activities we got involved with on the cruise were Microsoft Windows 10 ( I am converted), Pools, sauna, trivial pursuit in crows nest bar during happy hour, and walking on the promenade deck.
