Bolette, Mediterranean

This cruise was not as good as the last one I took on Fred Olsen last year because of the entertainment. Across the ship, the entertainment was not as good. As a musician myself, while I am very discerning, I know I sometimes have a higher standard, that aside, the singers on board were out of tune, shouty and at times screechy. The main stage show cast was inexperienced and not nearly as skilled as the cast last year. Singers elsewhere on the ship were also not as good. As much talent as there is out there, I am surprised that FO doesn't find it.
To the topic of dining...the main dining room bill of fare was not so special at all. At times, I have had better a meal at a hotel banquet. This really needs to be looked at because it was so inconsistent. Some nights would be terrific, others average at best. All in all the cruise was ok but not as special as it could have been.
