Panama Canal cruise... Cruise was great. The Pearl is due for an update this February which it needs. But overall the shows were great, with exception of the Elvis, Madonna, and Tina Turner look alikes. WE LOVE TIM KOMINSKY and have seen him before and would book a cruise to see him again. So many activities to do. Cruise Director staff was always around, except the Cruise Director was never seen except at the shows. Anique Smith should get promoted to the Cruise Director... she was truley the most outgoing person on their staff. Jewelry Store needs to get rid of Bruce, since he is rude to his staff and only wanting to show you Zultanite. He refused to listen to what you like and want to see.

The ports were all nice with a variety of options for tours. Peurto Chiapas was a wasted stop though, since there wasn't much to do there or on tours. So we stayed on board, and again there was plenty of things to keep us busy.

Our ship had a small out brake off illnesses, so the staff hurried and secured the ship with many sanitizing stations and free medical care. The buffet was addressed extremely well with the staff serving you instead of you helping yourself.

Cabin B1

Great room, would recommend this view to anyone going on a Panama Canal Cruise or a Alaska Cruise.

Port Reviews

Puerto Quetzal (Antigua)

Volcano Hike! Fabulous, exhausting but worth it.

Huatulco

Great dive shop booked outside the cruise line. Huatulco dive center... they were professional and picked you up at the dock with well marked signs. Brand new boat in great condition. Great day!

Los Angeles

Went to Disneyland the day before. It was a fun way to start our vacation and get use to the time change.
