Fantastic travel writing with a couple of real LOLs. The author plays the role of self-aware snob for all it's worth though, I assume hoping that his fellow passengers and Atlantic readers are disjoint sets.

I thought it was barely readable self-indulgent pablum. I can't speak to his fellow passengers on this cruise, but the set of those who cruise and Atlantic readers are not disjointed.
