Well the "good" news is that we are going on the Oosterdam which is one of the higher rated ships. The bad news is that they are a little old fashioned and have at least 2 formal nights. My idea of dressing up is to wear regular pants instead of shorts. And they won't tell us which sitting we are at for dinner. Normally we eat around 5:00 PM. The choices are 6:00 and 8:30 and we may be stuck at the late seating which my wife will hate. The agent said that this time of year it will be kinda cold but that the animals are just coming out of hibernation and are still groggy so they don't run away as easily. It should be fun no matter what the weather.
