Well after finishing the survey which took almost an hour, I figured I'd complete this review, although I doubt it will be shared. After being on the Ruby Princess in Alaska, I was ready for another Princess cruise and saw that the NE/Canada trip was inviting as I haven't see fall foliage in a long time. I can't tell you how disappointing this cruise was, regardless of missing one of the best ports (Bar Harbour), which was for good reason due to weather, we had a day at sea, which I dislike immensely. Looking forward to getting off the ship in Saint John's only proved to be a bigger disappointment. I took a 2 hour bus tour and although the bus driver was great, this little town is lacking a lot and it does not even invite people to go explore. I for one think that this port of call should be withdrawn as it was a waste of time. The way the dining rooms are set up you have to use the elevator to go to the 7th floor, go to the end of the ship (I could never figure out which end!) and then take the elevator to the 6th floor to go to dinner. WHAT??? how ridiculous and difficult especially when traveling with people in wheel chairs or scooters. The entertainment left a lot to be desired, which was not the case on the Ruby Princess. The first night was awful and many people left before the show was over. The daily activities were lame, but I'm not big into these types of things anyway. Thank goodness I was traveling with awesome family and friends, that's what made this cruise bearable. I will cruise again, but most like not on the Princess lines. It cost too much to be this disappointed.
