Fifth and last time probably on this ship. Far to crowded and a very rough element now. A lot of people were evicted from the shp for bad behaviour, mainly brawling. MDR long wait for food and quality when it finally arrived not good. Far to much asking us to applaud when they parade and tell us how wonderful they are. This is probably aimed at getting us to tip their poorly paid staff who are lovely and cant do enough for you. It really is aimed at extr acting aa much money as possible.from the passengers who are packed in like sardines and told they are having fun. Paying 18 dollars extra each for a shuttle bus to take us into a town which was advertised as the stop in the brochure ia not acceptable...Windjammer food very good if you are a meat and fish eater. We are not and lactose intolerant so we ate a lot of salad and pasta. The best part of our cruiae was Boleros where a latin band called Mattisse performed most nights. It was usually packed and no seats available unless we arrived early or were very lucky. We loved the dancing . We havw been cruising for over twenty years did overall enjoy ourselves but this was not the cruising we expected and paid for..
