Someone cleaning their dentures at the water machine in the buffet area. Never took water from that machine for the rest of the cruise!

Just disembarked from the Octantis last Saturday (8/13). It was marvelous! The Zodiacs, Submarines & Speedboat were all used in Canada. Lots of Kayaking available. My husband & I did kayaking for the first time , on Lake Superior. It was fun. Arms were sore but I’d do it again. He did the submarine. The excursions to Copper Mine in Houghton & to farms in Bayfield we’re great. Did lots of hiking in Thunder Bay. Mackinac Island was very quaint & relaxing. They launched a weather balloon one early morning, with results reported to US Weather Bureau. Terrific brilliant young crew who are scientists gave lectures. There were 335 passengers & 265 crew. Crew was so attentive!! Food was delicious ( first rate). What really helped was the perfect weather -no rain & temps in the 70’s. Highly recommend. By the way I am 70 husband is 72.
