Today we are in St John NB. We are taking a trolley tour. So far this is not the best cruise I've ever been on. Lots of things have gone wrong and the food quality isn't what it used to be, but I think that is common since Covid. The room is spacious, lots of storage. The balcony is amazing, I was sitting out there last night enjoying the sunset.

I think my expectations were too high. I wanted Kasey to love it but that didn't happen. Still we had lots of quality time with Jack.

Yes it did disappoint in some areas but in others it was lots of fun so at the end of the day, it was worth it.

@BelleStarr Well that's a reasonable outcome. Would you do it again?

I don't think I'd ever want to go on a cruise.

It isn't foe everyone but there is a lot to be said for having all your needs catered to. I do enjoy being spoiled.

Sorry to hear that it's not the best cruise you have never been on. I just hope for your sake that they haven't taken any shortcuts when it comes to fresh water provision and other health and hygiene matters. Glad to hear about the room and the balcony being good though

Heath was as always a big concern in the ship and in that area I saw no shortcuts. I just had high expectations!!

@BelleStarr I think we mostly all have high expectations about holidays and when it's not quite at the level we think that it should be it is a bit of a let down

You had a lovely sunset to enjoy, maybe some excursions at some of your ports will allow you some better food. It is a shame that the food isn't up to par to what you expected.

The food has always been exceptional, and some of this was but not all of it. My knees restricted my ability to enjoy excursions. It did make me decide I need knee replacements sooner rather than later.

it's disappointing when things go wrong and the food isn't the best quality. At least you have a spacious room and it must be wonderful to enjoy that balcony. Hope there are more perks than disappointments for the rest of your cruise.

That is an incredible sunset. I think food is one of the best things about cruises. I'm sorry that isn't proving the case with yours.
