I have been following your trip and love your periscopes. But I have been reading really bad reviews about freedom. I was on 3 years ago and loved it. Everything from bad food in dining room, the condition of the ship, bar service and unfriendly crew. Please tell me this isn't true? I am booked with another couple for april. We just did harmony in September and loved it. Our friends were in harmony for there first cruise. Hope we aren't going to be disappointed. Please tell me we are going to be ok?
