	My wife and I sailed the "Song of Norway". It's not really small in comparison to some other ships. However, with the attention from the staff you would think it small. It's the only time I've ever seen so many nationalities (staff) living so close together in harmony. The ship brags of it's staff of so many origins. In 1986 it was rated #1 in cruise ships with 3 other RCCL ships in the top 5. The ratings were for service, food, fun, etc. etc. The rooms are small, but that's the way it is on all ships, unless you stay with the captain. You should receive a book in the mail from the RCCL explaining what to bring for clothes, how to tip, etc. Believe what you read. They were 100% correct. We overpacked. Food is free, 3 sittings plus mid-nite buffet. But you have to pay for booze. Bottles on board are very cheap (no taxes).
