We have sailed with Princess 7 times and once with Carnival. This was the easiest on and off loading we have ever had. The cabin was great (we always get a balcony). The buffet was the usual but it was very delicious and tasty. We met two great couples at 5:30 dinning and many more throughout the cruise. The food was great at this dinning time period as well. The entertainment was good. One singer Tony B. was really good. Another singer and a comedian got a little off with the ethnic thing (not cool). We love the Grand Princess. We have sailed three times on it and feel that it is superior to all others that we have sailed on.

The photo shop was very accommodating. One photographer named Tammy was really good. Two of the sales folks were seemly outstanding: Vesna and Jax. We thought that the fashion show and the marriage game were both great. The talent contest was very good. The talent show by the crew was really good, in fact it was the best one we have seen to date.

I really like Princess. My wife feels the same way. Why? Here are the reasons: Security, Safety, lots of friendly staff, great food, Professional seamen, Pursers Desk people are great. The entertainment is always great but really great on the Grand. Holly was so darn funny and quick that we went to everything she worked on. Holly should be a Cruise Director. She is simply the BEST. We do not use the shore excursions because we have travelled and lived in Europe and prefer to explore on our own. The fitness center was good. I wish it had another chest machine but it was not that big a deal. My wife participated in the crafts and Princess POP choir and the fashion show. We are in our mid sixties and plan to use Princess for some time to come.
