Love Norwegian. This was our 8th cruise and the 9th is already scheduled. Small ship this time. Less entertainment than the bigger ships, but also easier to do things with less people. Balcony is our choice and love the ability to relax and listen to the ocean. Specialty dining is great. Our favorites are Cagney's Steak and Moderno. Complimentary dining is good and lots of choices. Love the freestyle of NCL. Service was wonderful. We had a great cabin steward. The shore excursion at the canal was interesting, but if you take the train, give a lot of thought to paying extra for the dome car. Air conditioning didn't work and the sun was beating down through the glass. You share a table with 2 others with really no room for everyone's legs. Those in the lower cars had air and room! The rain forest tram trip in Costa Rica was awesome. We loved it and well worth the 2 1/2 hour drive to get there. Had a great guide who kept us entertained all the way. They served a really nice lunch and the tram ride is over an hour and covers 1.5 miles. We did not do anything in Honduras or Belize. We were just there in November on the Getaway (and did zip line in Honduras which was absolute awesome!). Last stop was Key West. Interesting because that is where we went through Customs and Border Patrol on the ship before getting off. When we arrived in Miami the next morning, we did not have to go through again.

Mid-Ship Balcony

Cabin BA

Adequate size and could fit all the suitcases in the closet along with the clothes. Balcony was good size with two chairs and a small table. We loved the ability to sit out there.
