I was disappointed that this cruise didn't have Alaska lectures. In my research, I had seen that they had lectures about Alaska during Sea Days, but it was mostly trivia on this cruise. I didn't see any craft time, either, which I've enjoyed before on cruises. I'm not sure if this was due to the staff shortages or what. Needless to say, between our TV not working and there not being much to do, we spent a lot of time reading, napping and hubby played a game on his phone that I actually got into too where you had to read clues and guess the word. Lol!
I was going to eat lunch at the deli, but there was a long line and it is in the back of Lido on an outer deck and it was cold, so I just ate from the buffet instead. There was no Thousand Island dressing which was a bummer because that is my favorite. They had it off and on throughout the cruise. Must have been another shortage.
