Went through Panama canal from Miami to San Diego. Great trip with several stops. Great shopping in guatemala and very friendly people. Going through canal canal tour was not worth money because you go through canal so unnecessary unless you want history. Colon is horrible to get through and very depressed area. Loved all our waiters and cabin steward on ship. Weather was wonderful hot and humid. Getting on and off ship was excellent. Only problem was when we had to tender into cabo san Lucas. Second day was not good and waited in line for an hour. Should not have happened so poor planning on ships part. The food was very good for the most part had one day I wasn't happy. They served baby back ribs that tasted good but very tough so possibly were over cooked. Mist of the movies were very good and we enjoyed movies under the stars. Going through the canal is a great experience everyone should try to do.

The entertainment on the ship was all right, the ships singers and dancers were very good and we enjoyed their shows very much.

We were a senior age couple and we would definitely do this cruise again.

Colon (Cristobal)

tour in Colon is really a mess right now with renovations and buildings being torn down. Streets are difficult to navigate. Canal tour was very interesting and enjoyable.
