Wanted a close by cruise while we were wintering in our RV in the LA area. Did not plan on the sudden change in weather and did not pack appropriately so we only got off the ship once on the sunny day in SF. Slower service than in the past in the MDR, but food good.Enjoed the IC on lunchtime mostly and took back to our room as limited seating. Went to a couple shows but had to get there 45-50 minutes ahead. Decided to limit our alcohol consumption due to the price increases and brought two nice bottles to dinner.

We had an OV cabin in the bow and found it smaller than we imagined. Had our cabin steward separate our beds so we could utilize the lamps and night stand which was shoved sideways in a corner. Put the round table in the closet so we could walk in the room. Lighting is inadequate and hairdryers continue to be inefficient.

Smaller than we imagined, once we had the beds separated we were able to move around. Dimly lit and difficult to use desk mirror for styling hair and makeup. Good space for clothes. Room temperature was good. We usually book a balcony but it would have been wasted with the stormy weather we experienced.
