I’m not as frequent a Grandeur cruiser (since I moved to FL) as I once was but I was never, ever disappointed with a Grandeur cruise.  As long as your expectations are properly calibrated, you will have a great time.  

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, .....
I'm taking a bow with such accolades.  There's no doubt, I love Lady G.
You don't realize how many windows there are with views out into the ocean until you go on the larger ships.  For example, the Schooner Bar.  It's all windows on the one side.  When you look up through the Centrum .... it's a giant skylight at the top.  Unlike the larger ships that are very horizontal in the venues ... smaller ships with the Centrum are designed to think vertically ... many items surrounding a central core as opposed to a promenade.
As for questions, ask away @Revo1776 , I'll do my best to help.

@WAAAYTOOOis another.

I'm guessing @coneyravenwould be your best resource for questions about Grandeur! 🙂

Looks like it .... I'm noticing a lot of those these days

I think the "worst cruise ever" was actually a different kind of pleasure cruise.  In April, 1865, the paddlewheeler, Sultana was overloaded with 2100 people (her capacity was 360) in Vicksburg, MI.  The passengers were about 90% Union soldiers who were prisoners in the Civil War.  Many of them had survived Andersonville.  The overcrowding was a result of a kick back and bribe by the ship Captain and the US Quartermaster in Vicksburg.  In a hurry to move his human cargo the Captain authorized a patch of a split boiler rather than a replacement.  Along with all the hells of war, 1865 was also a year of record flooding on the Mississippi River.  After picking up a load of fuel (coal),  the massive current of the river and the faulty boiler repair caused first one and then two other boilers to explode in the Mississippi on April 27 just 7 miles North of Memphis.  1168 people died.  Nearly all were American Soldiers. 
The news of the day was dominated by the end of the war, the death of Lincoln and the chase of Boothe.  It barely made the news.  Nobody was ever held accountable.
That is the worst cruise ever.

Takes the time to create an account, just to complain………….

So is Park Cafe on the smaller ships.

There is a "work around" that does bring up Enchantment Sailings .... click on "Roll Calls" --- you'll see the list that you did a screen shot of..... then go up into the search bar and type in Enchantment..... that'll pull them up.

Wishing for his man-bits to be larger and used a term which could also refer to a rooster (clock without the "l")

I don’t know but Harmony was rocking & rolling out of PC on our 3/13 cruise.  That girl was swaying like a drunken sailor.  Don’t kid yourself that larger ships don’t move!  Poseidon takes that as a challenge!!

when I was there a few years ago there was trash as well, I spent a little gathering trash from the beach & throwing it away, if we all pitch in we can keep it clean

The pig and chicken look somewhat horrified !

Well, maybe if he would stay off the cruise ships he would be able to get something done......🤣
