We have been with Princess for now 12 cruises, and in the past there were more activities that did not require money to have fun. The shows were cut down to 25 minutes, Anytime dining has screwed things up and cannot make some of the shows and the ChampagneFountain, is all about taking photo's. The Lotus Salon hustles people and hair care is expensive and since formal nights have changed into the Night of the Beverly Hillbillies, don't really enjoy formal night-all about the money, and not the event it was even 10 years ago. Also take an inventory of all your belongings, some of my hair clips could be found after the1st day, and searched forever, made a report to the Purser on the 3rd day and stated so in Princess questionnaire. Watch your valuables and know where everything is. Misplacing items can put a damper on your trip.
