I am so glad you have a positive attitude.   "This once in a lifetime trip" was my attitude also and that's why it was exactly that.

I did not see any mumuus on the ship at all but tons on Oahu especially during the luau.

As far as the cruise is concerned, I suggest you make as much of your excursions as you can. You still have plenty of time to book them on your own and save some $.   I went through google and just typed the same words that were used in the NCL brochures for excursions. The exact companies that NCL uses came up and I emailed them directly and booked several without NCL getting their hands in my pocket. The excursions made my cruise and my entire 11 days in the Hawaiian islands. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous, and I am determined that this won't just be a "once" in a lifetime experience for me. I want to do it again as soon as possible.

If you have any specific questions about my excursions - ziplining, downhill bicycling, walking on lava, kayaking, snorkeling, submarine, etc., let me know.
