I had been wanting to try cruising for years and finally went for my 15th wedding anniversary. Unfortunately we had rough weather and I spent pretty much the whole cruise perpetually dizzy. The rough weather also caused them to cancel the main show the last 2 nights because it wasn't safe for the dancers - to which I would say just put on the show with the band and the singers then! For me, the highlight of the cruise was the big band. Loved them.

My disappointments:

- I'm a vegetarian and the vegetarian option in the dining room was Indian every night. With about 3 nights left one of the wait staff finally said told me I was able to request a special meal. Well done that person, shame it didn't happen sooner (though I will acknowledge the Indian was very nice).

Cabin Review

Balcony

No additional power points next to bed head. Rather narrow so difficult to get through at times. Would be good to be able to keep balcony door open without shoving a chair in the way. And if you go out on the balcony and just let the door close behind you it doesn't close properly so the person still in the cabin hear's this horrible high pitched wind sound. Good bed. Good bedding. Good towel animals. Good cupboard space, but insufficient luggage storage space.
