Cabin: Oceanview (obstructed view)
Enjoyed this cruise in spite of some times bad weather. Mother Nature will do what she will do, no matter how much you may wish otherwise.
We were expecting warmer weather than we got in the Mediterranean, but we soldiered on. The ship was an older lady than some and not always the easiest to maneuver, but the staff was nice and helpful and the Captain kept us apprised of any upcoming bad weather as best he could.
The 2nd half of the cruise had the Brits in the majority and the Horizon Menu was very much attuned to that. Lots of chips, (Fries to us US folk) lamb etc.Things on the breakfast menu like fried bread and beans and calves liver and blood sausage, but there was enough other food available that no one starved. If I had any complaint about the food was that it was pretty repetitious at times..
Cabin Review
Oceanview (obstructed view)
Cabin OV
Our Cabin was toward the front and middle would have been better I think for the rough seas we had, but we did OK. It was a good size room. The cabin steward we had was a woman who often looked overly tired.
Port Reviews
Bilbao
Enjoyed walking to the Guggenheim and around the city
Barcelona
Raining but went to the History of Barcelona Museum in the Quarter and it was fascinating. Would never have found it if not trying to get out of the rain.
Rome (Civitavecchia)
Took the train into Rome (14 Euro each)

Walked around the Sea Port area, Very lovely and enjoyable
Gibraltar
Loved seeing the monkeys on the Rock.
