Cruise Ship: MS Zuiderdam	Sailed: June, 2010
Destination: Alaska	Age: 65+
Cabin: Balcony

Cabin excellent. Dining room, food and service very good. Ports of call and excursions very good. Downsides - lack of quieter areas to sit - we twice sat in areas for a quiet read - first one interrupted by a dance class (and this was in the library area!) and second time in a seating area listening to classical music only for a talk on acupuncture to take place in the adjacent part after first turning off the music (no asking) and then subjecting anyone there to the lecture whether they wanted it or not! The self-service food area was chaotic - the firat day in particular after which they changed it a little - long queues, staff serving had little english and were often rude. However, sights seen eg Glacier Bay - fantastic to witness incl whales etc
