Quantum & Anthem Photo Review - Food Focus - All Specialty and Dynamic Dining

QE2_Fan · March 9, 2016

Many thanks for your concern. There is light at the end of the tunnel and as I just said on the NCL board, I do hope at some point to resume my contributions here.

As far as this Quantum review goes, I think it will be heavily curtailed but I do have some nice photos to share, which may be of some minor interest.

Glad you plan on coming back! We really appreciate it and loved the interesting and unique photos you've shared thus far!

The past year has been one I will be glad to put behind me. I am so sorry that the completion of my review was put into abeyance. The truth is I have been unable to focus on pretty much anything. As I am now getting back on an even keel I want to finish it, although I may now condense what I might otherwise have written. It may take some time to complete but I am determined to do so.

I propose to finish the Deck Tours first, then take it from there...

If a fraction of the effort put into designing TWO70 had gone into the Theatre, perhaps it would not have felt like the worst designed Theatre I have ever experienced on any post millennium ship. Pillars galore causing obstructed views...

Sorry, I meant Deck 5...

I suggest arriving really early for the major shows to avoid seats like mine...
