I have a couple of small things to add to Wendy's post, one that she briefly mentioned and the other that she did not.

On the Voyager there were the usual complement of people who, like us, were wandering around with big grins permanently plastered on their faces. However, even after a couple of days of this marvelous cruise there were still a noticeable number of people who had a look on their face like they had just bitten in to a rotten persimmon. I'm used to a few people on board who are just incapable of enjoying themselves, but the coefficient seemed higher than usual on this cruise. I don't know why this might have been so: as Wendy has said we thought this was a fantastic if too-short adventure.

Second, this was our first Regent cruise since they went all-inclusive. The bars and lounges had many more people present than I have seen on past cruises. This was nice to see.
