1. I got the Norovirus. 2. Ship was beautiful. 3. Staff was very friendly. 4. Ship layout is cumbersome. 5. Mini-suite bathroom setup is bad unless you don't mind not having any privacy while on the toilet. It had see through glass. The toilet is on one side and the shower/tub on the other in glass. If you cannot step up and over 32 inches then you can't use the tub/shower. The tub is curved like a banana and is very uncomfortable to sit in. 6. Too many children - could never get in the pool. 7. Teenagers take over the Jacuzzis, no parental control and the staff does nothing about it as most are only a year or two older. 8. Not a lot to do as I never saw the cruise director out and about only heard him on the speaker system or TV. 8. TV has only 2 channels unless you want to watch the news or them selling you everything over and over. At least twelve in house channels to sell you something. Specialty restaurants are worth it. Teppanyaki was the absolute best! 9. Unless you stay in the 'Havens' you will wait on an elevator. If you stay in the 'Havens' you have a special elevator so you don't have to be around or wait with the 'regular' people.

This was our 6th and final cruise. We love RV'ing much better. We have been on Norwegian two times, Carnival two times (carnival is a complete train wreck), and Royal Caribbean two times. Royal Caribbean by far has been the best overall but we have a lot more fun kayaking, hiking, mountain biking and snorkeling while camping (glamping) for less money. Just go to Yellowstone and Teton National through Montana and Wyoming. you will be sold too.

Take care.
