"Extras" is putting it mildly, how many appeys/desserts did each of us
order.LOL Also even when they didn't have extras of what we wanted,
they went back to the kitchen for more. Loved the dessert menu before
ordering, thanks Lola and John.

George(waiter) and Stefan(assit. waiter) put up with a lot from our
table and did an excellant job. I agree about Marino, he was also
helpful and availablle.

I agree...they were very very good. What extras? We did not eat to
excess whatsoever. In fact, I just take little nibbles of things at best!

Boy you are right, all that walking even when you weren't planning it.
We spend so much time walking back and forth trying to find our way
around the ship.lol It seems as if every time we tried to find the Spa
pools or aft whirlpool we got lost and went up and down stairs trying
to find it.
