Water Park aboard Freedom of the Seas

Good morning,

I am still roaming around Freedom of the Seas with camera in hand. 

The shot above was taken through a window near the elevators on deck 13.  This is the water park area for children.  There are other pools for adults, too. 

Fun!

Rock Climbing Wall and Basketball Court

Good morning,

Just in case you run out of things to do on a cruise ship, you can go up to the sports deck to climb walls or play a game of basketball.

Fore!

Good morning,

Ever want to play golf at sea?  Sure, haven't we all?  Well, you can play miniature golf at sea aboard Freedom of the Seas.

Above guests are playing golf while Freedom is tied up in Labadee, Haiti, but you can play while the ship is moving, too.

I think the most fun we  had playing golf at sea was aboard Splendour of the Seas when we were in the Arctic Circle playing golf in the Midnight Sun off the Coast of Norway.

Enjoy,
Lois

Flow Rider

Good morning,

This is the Flow Rider aboard Freedom of the Seas.

This nifty thing generates waves so you can surf on the top deck of a cruise ship.

There's always something different to do while at sea, isn't there!

Enjoy,
Lois

Saturday Waffles and Ice Cream Treat

Good morning,

Yes, I know I have shown you these before, but this is a new one.  ;)

We just love Saturdays!  That's the day we gather with friends to enjoy Norwegian Waffle Cakes with ice cream, strawberry topping, and whipped cream.  Norwegian Brown Cheese is also very good with these.

I would enjoy a few more Saturdays in the week!

Enjoy,
Lois

Grandeur of the Seas - Labadee, Haiti

Good morning,

These are images of Grandeur of the Seas that I took from Deck 12 of Freedom of the Seas.

That is a zoom shot of the wing bridge of Grandeur.

The ship on which I am standing is much larger than Grandeur so I get a unique perspective looking down on the top deck of the other ship.  Also note the dock/walkway from the ships to the island on the left side of the above image.

I took the series of images as I walked from the forward to the aft part of the ship.

Grandeur is a Vision Class ship.

 That covered area in the center is the Solarium, a covered pool that is for adults only.

 As large as this ship is, it does feel pretty neat to be standing above her taking pictures from an even larger ship.

 Here we are all the way to the stern.

 I had to tilt the camera to get as much of Grandeur into this image as I could.  :)

 These ships are so beautiful!

All the best,
Lois

Connoisseur's Club - Freedom of the Seas

 Good morning,

There are many different places to explore on cruise ships and I think I have actually found one that I haven't shown you before when we have been on board.

 This is the Connoisseur's Club, located just outside the Pharaoh's Lounge on Deck 5.

 Those who enjoy a cigar and a glass of cognac or other fine wine have a place where they can enjoy with others who enjoy the same.

 The Club is separated from other areas so the smoke will not drift into areas where it is not wanted.

This is part of the decor...

...in the Pharaoh's Lounge that is next to the Connoisseur's Club.


What a beautiful ship!

Enjoy,
Lois
