Chose the cruise because of the special offerings. Should have done more research or I would never have booked them. Went to the Brazilian Steakhouse and got a piece of meat that you could hardly cut let alone chew. The fried eggs over easy were runny and the scrambled eggs were watery. The dueling pianos were great. I must say the slot machines in the casino now flash a little sign that says "Thank you for not smoking". Only ran into two women who were smoking the whole cruise. Went to a jewelry unveiling of a new gem Zultanite that is mined in Turkey and supposed to be very rare and could only be found on the ship and not in any jewelry stores on the Islands. Found one in a jewelry store in Falmouth Jamaica. They only had 6 so I guess the stone is rare. Went to another presentation that night and before it started I showed my ring to the presenter and he asked where I got it and how much I paid for it. I was told by a jeweler on the Island that it should run (at this time) about $100.00 to $200.00 a carat. I tried on a ring on the first night that was $5,230.00 and maybe a 3 carat stone at the most with a few diamonds set in white gold. Needless to say the second night of the presentation nothing was mentioned that this was the only exclusive place you could get this stone. I've done Disney, Carnival and RCL. Needless to say I think this cruise was a waste of money. RCL will be my choice from this day forward. Do a lot of research before you book NCL.
