Don"t get me wrong it"s big ,a lot of walking .I think the O of the seas looks and feels so much bigger with all Theo:"s neighborhoods!! She felt like a classic ocean liner ! And can"t wait to go on her .Most people at the party said they wouldn"t take a cruise to the Caribbean on the QM2 .But i would .I loved the pools at the stern of the ship .To me that would be cruising like we use to do it .!! You feel like your on the ocean !! The food was very good .She looked great for being in service for 6 years .It took me 35 min to get to the Brooklyn pier from NJ.I took a bus to the PA and the subway to Brooklyn then a bus and walked 3 blocks to the pier and ship !! The Brooklyn pier is just so much better then NYC piers .But if you don"t know your way it could be hard to get there !! I still can"t believe Cunard is not using the NYC piers being they are rebuild now !! Oh you know Tom the hall ways i felt like we were on the Disney ships .I said that and the people who was on Disney before also said it felt like being on a Disney ship also !!!

As far as life boat drills go,we always attend even after 48 cruises,but many people said that if there were an emergency it would probably be every one for themselves,and forget all about what they heard at the lifeboat drill cruise lover(~~~~~) .. |
