The balcony is likewise big, but even more shabby. The outdoor furniture looks like it was already distressed when it was picked up at a garage sale.

They must have listened to you (or somebody), Sinbad! All the outdoor furniture for the suites (and I think balconies) was replaced at the refit last year

I didn't have an issue with water pressure, but I do not like the shower curtains that Princess have.

Thanks for pics young John. BTW, how is the shower pressure? 

Water pressure is fine no issues at all.

 

But getting ino bath an issue for me manage to sit on edge to shower as I have issues standing. Really dont want to have a fall. Showers on Ovation were a real treat. And I would like a suite with a bidet we installed japanese style washlet toilet at home. A great device would not be without it.

Real Aussie tucker on board then, Roast Chook, Mashed Spuds and gravy.  I thought they would have called it grilled spatchcock served on a bed of creamed potato with a jus.  Glad you enjoyed it all the same, nice Chardie to wash it down young John?

It is a shame that your dinner was interrupted but I am glad they were so quick to respond and confirm that it wasn't a person going over.

Thanks John great news.

Hope you enjoyed your cruise - Aria (and Eden) are  lovely old HAL ships that the couple of times I have cruised on both I have enjoyed “spot the original HAL feature” walkabouts. Soft spot for these old girls 👵🏻

Shame about the P&O neglect.
