The Hubby picked 2 staterooms with balconies. That was awesome. We were up really early every morning and I managed to see the sun rise. That was really something.
I assumed I would feel claustrophobic in the room. I was wrong. I thought the ship would be bobbing more. Wrong again. The room is spacious and really lovely. And I hardly felt the ship. Oh sure, it's not like being on land .. But more of a relaxing lull. Really nice to fall asleep to.
Our cruise was a 5 days 4 nights cruise to Phuket. It was amazingly lovely weather every day. And there was a lot to do. Sure, you could CHOOSE to do nothing and just sit on the deck all day and read. But we have kids. No sitting around aimlessly happening. Ever. The middle 3 kiddies we dumped, er, deposited. at the kids club on board. They did arts and crafts, played games and watched movies .. I brought Charlotte to a little play area every morning after breakfast for some play time. The cruise obviously has a tie up with Fisher-Price so they have quite a decent selection of relatively new baby toys out for toddlers to play for an hour or so.The we'd roam around till it was time for lunch then we'd grab the kiddies then head to the dining hall for lunch. The food is good. Nothing else I can say about it. Wide variety. Good quality.
Being on the cruise was like being on The Love Boat. Come on, you remember that series ? It ran from 1977-1987 on tv. I remember watching it and thinking how grand it would be to be on a cruise.It seemed surreal actually walking up the ramp into the ship when we first boarded. Yea, I don't travel much if you can't already tell.
Anyway, here are some pics we took.
