great crew, but would not travel with this cruise line again. The dinner food was actually terrible, even after trying 4 of the different dinners. There was no special dinner for the dress-up nights - in fact, most people didn't even dress up, so it was no big deal at all. The activities were almost non-existent, especially on the sea days. It was extremely disappointing. I compared this to many Carnival cruises, and this was far below my past experiences. The at sea days were actually filled with fun activities around the pool and were very enjoyable. The only activities that RCI provided for the at sea days were a belly-flop contest (one day) and a sexy man contest (the other at sea day). It was pathetic! The nightly entertainment was a little more than high school. I felt nickel and dimed the entire cruise, always asking for more money, spa experiences, expensive drinks, etc.
