The Biggest Ship in the World

Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas is one of the two biggest ships in the world.  Yes, big enough to hold 5,000 passengers, big enough for 16 decks, over a dozen restaurants, a theater that shows a complete Broadway musical, and certainly big enough to get lost on.

My sister and I did a cruise to the western Caribbean for our yearly vacation.  We visited Nassau (way too hot), St. Thomas and St. Martin where we took a tour around both the Dutch and French sides of the island. 

We lost at Bingo, went to Comedy Live, saw a diving show, a show with singers dancing and acrobats called Blue Planet (amazing staging) bypassed the casino and the art auction, and saw Mama Mia.  Of course we continued our ongoing Scrabble tournament (She is now one game ahead.), giggled like the kids we once were and had two fabulous meals at specialty restaurants 150 Central Park and Giovanni's Table.

Home again with nice memories and probably five extra pounds.
