This was to be a nice little relaxing 4 night cruise for birthday. As a seasoned cruiser (34) I see changes.
Freestyle as gone too far. Tee shirts and shorts allowed in dining room at dinner, some were clean, a little over the top. No formal nights. No welcome back latitudes members, no cocktail party with captain and senior officer's.
Kids run big promotions and change "rules" on the cuff. Free cruise raffles was supposed to be at 5pm on Key West port. You had to be present to win. I came back to ship as not to miss that 5pm in stone final deadline. 5pm came and went. Assistant cruise director decided to change drawing time till after we were forced to wait 2 bingo games. Now 5:45 changes drawing till they sell another batch of their scratch off games. After all those folks filled oit their little red tickets seperated and put into raffle drum we were ready for a free cruise drawing. Woops the door on the drum wont stay closed. Duck Tape!!
Best part was the shower.
