My comments don’t really fit into the scheme of voting above but, having just returned from the February Antarctic/South America cruise on the Oosterdam, I felt this was somewhere I might record my praise for two ensembles of that ship that really increased my enjoyment during the 22 days. Firstly, the Steps Dance Ensemble, providing a quality and variety of dance that I really did not expect to encounter on a cruise ship – and have never encountered before on cruise ships of other lines. Really excellent choreography, stage sets and technical dance – bravo. Secondly, the Lincoln Ensemble musicians, string and piano performances of the highest quality, tastefully curated and presented even at a time (9pm) that we biologists/naturalists, preferring to be on deck during all hours of daylight, could attend. A great end to the day!
Thank you for sending in your kudos for your experience. We appreciate it!
