Since we enjoyed the Explorer of the Seas some time back, we felt sure we would enjoy it's sister ship, the Adventure, and we did. However since we have sailed almost every cruise line in the non deluxe category, we feel that Royal reserves the better "upscale" treatment for it's Celebrity customers. On sea days, the Schooner Bar was jam packed for trivia games. The hall ways were often crowded and noisy. Food was average to good as it is on all cruise ships. Maybe I am expecting too much since I have done many cruises on Celebrity, Princess, HAL and others. The ice show is a good extra, and worth seeing. By all means if you are thinking about it, go for it. Especially if you have young ones. They have rock climbing and of course pools with slides. There are times when customers can get skates and spend time on the ice. Children will enjoy all the amenities and not think about rating the food etc.
Cabin was kept clean by steward. But it was nothing to make the cruise different than other cruises. Balcony had just enough room for 2 chairs.
We have been here many times, but always enjoy walking the main street and seeing the humorous designs. Very cold here also.
Since it went up a few degrees we tried walking along the riverside path. Spent about 2 hours walking and window shopping and returned to the ship to warm up.
It was very cold, in the 40's so we took a short walk. Not much to see.
