Additional details
We did this cruise because of the ports of call. Left from new orleans and went to seattle. The ship is very nice and clean, room also very good. The crew was always happy and friendly. Food was better than expected. We missed two ports of call and were not told was not told why, this is one reason we chose this trip was for the ports of call. Smoking was really bad on the ship as they have a cigar room inside the ship bt the piano bar which was full of cig smokers who liked to hold the door wide open for a period on time and let all the smoke out into the bar. Also the casino let the smoke out at both ends and into the theatreall the was into the balcony. This will make us think twice to cruise with nicl again.We also liked the amount of bars and dining rooms.

Los Angeles
waste of a day as everyone had to get off the ship and go through immigration. We were to be off by 9:30, but did not get through until after 11 am. no one was allowed back on the ship until everyone was off. Also the port in in the industrial area of cargo ships with no place to go
Seattle
as we live in vancouver b.c. we went home, but lots to see in seattle and the port is right down town
