Checking into any cruise ship is a slow and sometimes painful experience.  This one was no different.  We had been traveling for nearly 6 weeks, so we missed getting an important document that others had.  Took us a bit longer, then, to get through the system, only to find another line.  We were sent to an area with six elevators, but 5 were being used to bring luggage to the rooms.  Waited and waited and finally got to our floor.  However, my suitcase was not there.  This same thing happened on our Tauck Tulip cruise.  My baggage went to another room, and I did not get it until 8PM after I had given up hope.  Some canapés provided by Costco (we worked through them to get this cruise paid) and champagne, provided by the ship. Not much of a view from our veranda. Still no suitcase, so went to dinner. Cocktail...
