An enjoyable week’s mystery cruise from Liverpool. Had three ports of call to Belgium, France and Ireland. Bolette is a lovely ship with good amenities. Crew were as friendly and attentive as always. Entertainment was quite good but would have liked more theatre group shows as they only did two performances. . The other evening entertainment in the theatre was from a guest singer and a comedian. Food in both the buffet and restaurant very good. Had some excellent meals. Used the indoor swimming pool which was nice and warm. The jacuzzis were nice and hot .
