Hi everyone,

We have sailed Star, Sapphire, and Dawn. Also, looking forward to Star again in just about ONE year.....

I know it's almost sac-religious to speak (write) poor reviews of the lobster but honestly, and especially, for someone from the east, the tails are really hit and miss. Even if you get a hit, it's only going to be a double not a home run.

marnaz.....you asked about the condition of ships and such. I don't see which you are on but when I sailed Dawn last year she was nine years old. If I hadn't known I would have guessed just a couple. Yes, there are always the difficult spots, someone once complained that the brass elevator buttons were worn (gimme a break!). Princess does a GREAT job of maintaining their ships.

Oh, back to the lobster tails. If you sail a ship that has Sabatini's the alternative restaurant the lobster tails are pretty good, well, the two times I have had them were good.

The only draw I can think of with a higher room? You are closer to the food and pools. Even if you are in a balcony, if on a Grand Class ship, the higher you go, the smaller the balcony.
