Let me start by saying that we took this EXACT cruise last year...same ship, same dates, same itinerary..and it was FABULOUS!

This year, we thought that it was lacking. The food was average, at best. I find it insulting that the beef item on the every day menu in the MDR is hamburger...really?

I resented the fact that I packed based upon a posted dress code but then it was disregarded. If you are not going to enforce it, just get rid of it!
