we are booked to sail on the Dawn this January,this will be our frist cruise with ncl.We are part of a group of 10, with ages ranging from 13 to 60 , including a 50th birthday celebraditon. We booked a mini suite, for our family of four. Any advice is always welcome , however i am wondering what is the teen centre like and what does it offer, are the mini suites worth the extra or would 2 inside be better,and does NCL still have their chocolate buffet. Thanks

Josee-After many years of cruising, my girl and I (we are both in our 60's) booked our first NCL cruise on the Dawn in Dec. 2006. It was a wonderful as when the duck discovers water-we loved it and the freestyle concept. More importantly-we loved the Dawn It was amazing to discover how many or our fellow passengers had cruised on the Dawn 4 or more times. The Specialty restaurants are well worth the extra money but the no added fee restaurants hold their own too! Sign up for the Honeymoon/Anniversary package ($79)-It offers a great deal-especially if there is a special anniversary in your group!! Don't miss the Teppanyaki grill if you like a Beni Hana style dining experience! Above all ... ENJOY,Dawn is a great ship,beloved by all!!

Bon Voyage,
