A large group of 18 people cruised to the Carrib5. Ma y of us were experienced cruisers and have done the same crusie in the past. Many cha ges occured. The menu in My time Dining was repeated throughout the trip. In past, you could make substitutions. If it wasn't in the menu, there was no negotiating. The food in the Windjammer was far better.
The entertainers were great and I appreciate their energy and ability to provide such fun. I do wish they would change the shows as they've been repeated for so long.
Finally, I experienced the worse thing possible from the cruise. On the last night, I developed stomach issues. When I finally got diagnosed in a hospital, it was Salmonella poisoning. Somewhere on the ship during some service, I acquired the infection. 4 days so far in the hospital and Im still not better. Eased be cautious with the food. The islands provided sun and sand. But it will be a while before I decide to cruise again. Also, they charge for exercise classes in the gym. I was also disappointed to not learn my perks as a good member I til the bartender told me.
