We did not explore Bayonne before our cruise, (we hate cities)... LOL. Our embarkation and disembarkations went very well. We had an accessible room which was large enough for our son to maneuver in his wheelchair.

We dined each evening in The Grande, the waiters we had were awesome! We eat a vegan diet so we were very pampered there. We had special meals each night, but our son does not eat vegan, so he got what he likes... he got shrimp cocktails every night (2 in fact). The people were very kind and friendly even to him (we often find that not to be the case).

The Windjammer was where we took our breakfast and lunch most of the time. At breakfast time, a chef there (Sonika) tried to recreate one of our favorite breakfast dishes, although she gave a good try, it just never came out the same. But we were able to pick from a number of choices there. We would like to see RC be a bit more accommodating to the difference diet choices, there wasn't much for vegetarians and vegans. It should be considered as this group is growing and we would like to have more than 1 or 2 choices at any meal. Read more
