Re: Canada & USA 2015
While it was wet the camping looked pretty grim and all but one packed up and slept in various nooks and crannies on the boat - there were lots. But when it dried and warmed up the tents came out and it looked ok, but I was told the deck was very cold. Tents were taped to the deck using duck tape mostly but weren't very steady. The best non- cabin sleeping spot was the "solarium", a covered open ended area at the back of the boat festooned with electric patio heaters. It was warm and dry and they provided 20-30 plastic sun loungers for sleeping on. The main drawback was a number of ship style vents from the kitchen and other areas making it a bit noisy and a tad smelly. I have a pic, but later.
