First of all, this was not my first time on the Dawn, I had sailed on her out of San Juan in 1998. I was interested to see what changes they had done to her. I was very please with what I found. Boarding was so fast it made me wonder if they were forgetting something.
Cabin was an ocean view and worked well for this trip. We usually do a balcony cabin but knew we would be on deck most of this trip to hear the naturalist talks.
Dining rooms had same menu we had seen before but was good, hot and nice presentation. Staff was friendly and efficient. Also noticed that they had new carpeting and drapes. Since we had 14 hours of daylight the view was also spectacular.
