The South Pacific, swimming & snorkeling was the bait. Our wives decided no good shopping there, so we said wer'e going anyway! With an old Merchant Navy buddy from the 1950's, I took off & had an amazing cruise, with an amazing crew on the Oceania mv vicSIRENA. During our on-board experience we noted ALL restrooms we spotless, Breakfast was always ready at the times listed, A great Gym & Exercise room. Always a cordial salutation or greeting from ALL members of the crew, uniformed Officers & hotel staff alike.
