Hi
My sister and I use NCL because we love freestyle cruising. We don't want to dress up each evening, and we don't want to sit with the same people for 14 days, its nice to speak and get to know new people.
We went on this cruise to recharge our batteries after a hectic year at work, it did mean flying in from London the day before but it was worth the trip. If you have never seen the canal - go, its breathtaking - as far as the other ports of call are concerned - I would have not stopped in any of the Mexican ports, but that only my opinion.
Forward Facing Cabin - great for days in port, balcony can't be used in rough weather, or after dark.
Too much furniture. Sea door - you had to be strong to open it.
