Just as expected except for a few things 1. Prior customers were being issued in the same line after the initial entrance as everyone else when embarking; 2. the balcony was dirty and needed to be cleaned; 3. water from above poured onto our balcony while I was outside on it (thought it was raining, but was told they were cleaning the ship) good thing we were not eating on the table: 4. we were not able to disembark easily, was pulled aside as if we did something wrong. No one would tell us anything which made us almost the last people off the ship. Then finally an officer informed us that it was because we purchased a lot of artwork from the art auction that we may need to declare even though the paintings were not in our possession, they were being shipped. It was very embarrassing, we felt like criminals. At the end, they let us disembark without doing anything because it was late and new cruisers were boarding (I guess); 5. cruisers who stayed on the ship from the previous week were allowed to book up most of the Sanctuary time and all the Chef table availability (unable to book either one prior to boarding, so the chance of getting a reservation is nonexistent).
