My recent cruise review......

Just back from a pristine Mediterranea. My review is up, I am interested in any comments. Have a look, nervous cruisers look away now.......

Thanks for a very interesting and well written review.

I wouldn't have liked to be in your shoes (barefeet) looking at cliffs so near, a touch of the Titanic.

Strange there being no weather or route charts, on our last cruise we always stopped by the screen where you could select the ships and see the route and other information.

Hope you get answer from Costa.

Where to next Cape Horn, South African Far East but that would have to be on another cruise line.

English is the safety language and the working language for the hotel staff, safety broadcasts will always be in English. As I understand it, Italian is the working language on the bridge, there should have been no delay for an Italian translation.

Some ships have a Latin dance team, two couples from a Hungarian agency, who do shows in the Grand Bar. Were there any on board?

Thanks for the review, malnik. I'm so sorry to hear about your false alarm and your daughters' anxiety about it thereafter--that would have distressed my kids (and me), as well.

Thank you for a great review Malnik and confirming the ice cream situation on board.

I am sorry to read about your daughters' anxieties and hope you can all overcome it in future cruises.
