Regatta Review

Additional details
We arrived in New York four nights before the cruise. It had been many years since we were in the Big Apple so we wanted to have plenty of time to see the City and to relax from our long journey. The HOHO buses was a good option and we had picked up a good special on the net before we left home.
On 24 October we embarked the cruise. We arrived about 11 a.m. and we were on the ship in about half an hour. Lunch was awaiting us. We did not get into our stateroom until about 2 p.m. We sailed at 4 p.m. after life drill.
The following day we had our Cruise Critic Meet & Mingle in the Grand Bar from 4.30 p.m. till 6 p.m. Approx 30 members really enjoyed the informal get together.
Cabin Review
Ocean View (obstructed view)
6049 is an obstructed view cabin but as it is on the end of that category cabin it had very little obstruction. Although the cabin is smaller than other cabins the layout is very functional and we felt there was plenty of room. Cupboard space etc is adequate. Suitcases will fit under the bed so just unpack and relax. It was very pleasant to lay on the bed next to the picture window and read a book.
