Show times (On Dawn)

[Wis]

We are travelling on a Greek cruise in May on the Dawn.  We reserved our dinner reservations most nights at 6:30.  However, what times are their shows (and are they worth it)?  Any other comments on the Dawn, itself, or the Greek isles?  Thanks in advance.

We'll be back of her in a couple of weeks.  Shows are usually 7:30.  The shows are something only you can judge as to whether you would enjoy them or not.  On every cruise we usually see one or two that we might enjoy.  Don't know what the shows will necessarily be in May.  I see Element's is one of them showing at the moment.  We've seen it before on another ship.  I really liked it.  We think the Dawn is a perfect size ship.  It is like the Star though in that it does not have  a Great Outdoors and a deck 13 forward Spinnaker observation lounge.  The Jewel class ships, similar size have those and we do enjoy both.  However, the Dawn has a wonderful crew.  As I said, we'll be back on her soon.

Thanks Roger.  That's good to know, especially about the crew.  We really like the smaller to mid ship size also, and we don't need the rock walls or zip lines.  Were you satisfied with the food on her.  There are mixed reviews, but, I know, food is very subjective.  Any place on her to have a drink with a view?

The last few cruises we've done suites, including last time on the Dawn.  So we've mostly eaten in the speciality restaurants.  But I think it is subjective.   On all of our cruises, whereas there might be something I don't care for with the food, there has always been plenty of other things I really liked.  But, don't remember anything on her food wise that left a bad impression.  I do remember that we really liked Los Lobos, the Mexican speciality restaurant, the first time we had seen one of them since they were introduced.   Drinking with a view inside (evening) is a bit lacking without the Spinnaker lounge. Of course there are bars out on the pool deck.   We settled on the bar down on deck 6 where the piano is located, next to Le Bistro, Gatsby's.  No view, but had excellent service from the staff serving.  In  a few weeks, I'll be able to give glowing reviews again....hopefully.

I’m looking forward to it!
