I was following that as We were on the cruise.I have to say that the stories that were circulating were mostly themes that had been heard before. Most seemed to be hearsay and could not be substantiated It certainly lost it's way and became a personal duel between two people in particular. We have sailed Ventura four times now, 2 being trans-atlantic. If we had encountered any of the misbehaviour that was reported on our previous cruises we certainly wouldn't have booked Ventura again. We would have no worries about booking Ventura in the future and found it to be an excellent mix of young and old (we place ourselves somewhere in the middle) and found it to be one of our most memorable. Regarding the slant of tattooed people who were being bracketed as trouble makers, yes there were one or two on board and one in particular was a knight in shining armour when a lady lost here wedding ring in the pool and he spotted it , jumped in, and retrieved it for her. Those on board would probably know who I am talking aboutRay Scully wrote:An excellent daily report folks on a cruise not many will do
The only sadness is that there were 5 times more hits on Trouble a Sea Have we got our priorities right?

Sue and Phil - There is now a review on Critic under Ventura reviews which might interest you, The reviewer makes some valid points but we would still happily book Ventura again.SueandPhil wrote:I was following that as We were on the cruise.I have to say that the stories that were circulating were mostly themes that had been heard before.
