Interesting is a good way to describe Spectra and the Gift. The shows were staged beautifully. Being a senior, I personally did not care for the shows. What one likes, someone else doesn't like. Sailing the Anthem again in June with several generations and it will be interesting to see what they think. I would give the ship and food 5 stars, lobster tails every night if you want them and they are huge.

Not our cup of tea, but the shows were interesting and well put together.

Anthem is a different cruise experience. I believe the younger you are the more you will like the experience. We are a couple in our 60's and while the technology is amazing, the main shows are just not our thing. Make reservations online for everything and all will be well. Lobster every night if you want it is great.

Thank you for the running commentary about your cruise. It was great to read.
Good luck with the plumbing. Safe trip home.

First the Anthem of the Seas price for 6/30/16 went way up and today a big drop. I saved $300 today

Saw Rock of Ages last year on the Breakaway. It was well done, but just not our cup of tea. We would prefer a different show but did not complain.

Without insurance you take your chances. We always buy insurance now but when younger never bought it. The cruise lines all offer insurance, take it or leave it.

We walked up and would NEVER recommend doing it. I thought I was going to have a heart attack the way my heart was pumping. Dodging the donkeys and donkey doo was no fun either.:mad: We took the tram back.

We would be interested in purchasing the pesos. Email me at ktcitron@hotmaildotcom
Just mentioning this to help others avoid our mistake. We have 1800 ARP leftover from our recent trip that no currency exchange (MIA or ORD) would buy. Even Chase and Bank of America will not buy them from us. :(Had we not been bumped from our flight home and then received news of my FIL's death, we might have been more on the ball, but it just never occurred to us that this would be a problem.

Hank,
I do take exception to being called a "sucker" for enjoying something and getting a good deal on it. I have looked up some of the items we have purchased online prior to the auction and found the price they go for on board to be quite a bit lower. Then I found one in a port gallery once that was 5 times the price it went for on board and it also was a print. We do enjoy them every time we walk through and see them on the walls. We also have originals from galleries and from artists and purchased an original on our last cruise. The auctions are enjoyable and that is what cruising is all about, so no need to slander those that find a part of a cruise, that you don't, enjoyable.

DITTO! We also have enjoyed and purchased.

You are on Maui, my favorite island. Too bad you didn't go to Kaanapoli, it's the best.

Many thanks for the quick review!
We just chose this ship for Jan 2015, may I ask what you thought of your cabin and what type it was?
We are also possibly doing the january 4 2015 cruise as we like the longer trips. We had a family mini suite on deck 12 mid ship. I will probably book the balcony as the size difference is minimal but I think our mini bathroom was somewhat larger which was nice. The water pressure in the shower was pretty bad so you had to stand up close to the showerhead. We had a tub and I kept hitting my toes on the drain. I would not recommend the rooms with tubs unless you take baths.

did you make it to great stirrup cay?
We did not get to Great Stirup Cay

Just want to say the ship is beautiful, the staff is accommodating and friendly, the food in our opinion was very good, choices of where to have included meals was great. We enjoyed having dinners in Savor and Taste because of the smaller restaurant size. Fire and Ice is not to be missed. Overall, the shows were good. As a 60 something year old couple, we didn't really care for Rock of Ages. We would highly recommend this ship.

I am pretty sure you need non-expired ID to board the ship. Did you happen to see the TV show where they actually denied some passengers access to the ship? I would call NCL and ask them exactly what you could bring to get on. I thought you always needed a passport for cruising. I hope you found the license.
Anthem - Update on Dining from the January 3, 2016 Cruise

We really enjoyed the meals on Anthem. I second the hibachi steak was excellent. I basically stuck with the signature dishes and was very happy. What could be bad; lobster tails, shrimp, etc., and the dining venues were beautiful. When it comes to Spectras Caberet and the Gift, the costumes and scenery were terrific, but I really did not care for the shows.
