Once I started with them, I rarely sailed with anyone else. I have quite a few crew friends. The company rotates staff among their ships so no one stays on one ship usually more than a few years.<br /><br />Actually, my preference is for the Radiance class ships. I found the Oasis too big. I probably would feel the same way about the Liberty and Freedom. I've been on the Navigator twice and the Mariner...the Navigator was nice because it was a transatlantic so there is plenty of time to explore the ship on those sea days.RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248477313227907720.post-76064180173969042262010-02-12T15:48:29.597+00:002010-02-12T15:48:29.597+00:00Carmen,

But not in Rio... ;)<br /><br />Jen,<br />This was the largest cruise ship at that time; now it's the Oasis of the Seas... ;)<br /><br />Lynn,<br />This time we had an Admiral's sea, meaning no turbulence... But on a smaller one in the Pacific, we noticed the waves... ;)<br /><br />Thérèse,<br />It's great to be inside!!<br /><br />Alice SG,<br />For a shopping mall, it's great... ;) But it's much better than that... ;)<br /><br />Rakesh,<br />I thought you would love that Pirate... ;)<br /><br />Eye,<br />It's a never ending party!!<br /><br />Susu,<br />Incredible isn't it?<br /><br />Olivier,<br />Ah, la belle corsaire... ça ne te passerais pas sans remarque... ;)<br /><br />Diane,<br />One week is the minimum, probably two weeks would be enough, unless you have a different port everyday... ;)<br />No tripod!!<br /><br />Hélène,<br />Ah, mais il y a la bibliotèque... simplement avec deux usuaires... ;))<br /><br />Juka,<br />And I didn't show the spa... ;))<br /><br />Lara,<br />That's the exact definition!!<br /><br />Regina,<br />The great advantage of cruising: unpacking and packing just once... the hotel travels with you!! ;))<br />Didn't gain anything; actually we don't put a cent on that casino... ;)<br /><br />Leena,<br />This one was built in 18 months at the Aker Finnyards drydock in Turku... The largest is now the Oasis; built at STX Europe (formerly Aker Yards)...<br /><br />Lucie,<br />En Finlande! Il faut regarder le Oasis pour voir ce qui est grand (360 m de longueur)... Le Queen Mary II est à 345m... ;)<br />Il faut trouver du temps...<br /><br />Neelima,<br />I know your kind of travel (or even better): I hitch-hiked Europe Lisbon-Stockholm-Lisbon in 1969... ;)<br /><br />Gattina,<br />Only 3,000 it's amazing isn't it?<br /><br />Ted Roth,<br />I still chose the cruise according to the itinerary; maybe this will change in some years time after seeing what I still miss... ;)<br /><br />Cloudia,<br />Aloha!!<br /><br />Ron,<br />It wasn't supposed to be a fun cruise (like Disney, for instance...), but people had lots of fun... ;)<br /><br />Peter,<br />Cargo vessels? I had my time sleeping under a viaduct at the highway near Husqvarna in 1969... Not any more... ;))<br />But the Blue Lagoon, in Fiji, takes only 80 passengers maximum; superb!!<br /><br />Lady,<br />Well, after some time it may be a bit boring, unless you have a large, well together, group... ;)<br /><br />Pietro,<br />Maybe we should charter the Oasis of the Seas for a bloggers cruise... ;))<br /><br />Kven,<br />There are many ways of travelling on such ships and many different prices for a cruise... Not necessarily that much... ;)<br /><br />Alexander,<br />Great, indeed!<br /><br />Constance,<br />Now you'll be hearing about the Oasis of the Seas... ;)<br /><br />Leo,<br />Thanks! I think that the large pictures are ok; but when it turns to collages, they lose quality and get a bit blurred...<br /><br />Mariposa,<br />She looks great!!<br /><br />Nisha,<br />It's definitely time for you to start packing... ;)<br /><br />Babli,<br />Huge indeed! It was the largest at that time; now it may look a little tiny compared to the Oasis... ;)<br /><br />Pat,<br />Sorry, no food this time... But if you're interested, you may check here - http://blogtrotta.blogspot.com/2007/03/polynesian-party.html - for some Polynesian Party food...<br />No need to be retired to enjoy cruising... ;))<br /><br />Rajesh,<br />It's an experience... But there are others at least as interesting as this one... ;))<br /><br />Diederick,<br />Thanks for your visit and first time comment here!!<br />A large village indeed!!<br /><br />Joyce,<br />Whatever you wish, provided that large, at sea... ;)<br /><br />MedaM,<br />You definitely have to start packing... ;)<br /><br />Star,<br />It's time to stop resisting temptations... ;)Trotternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248477313227907720.post-57316325109687859362010-02-12T00:36:27.882+00:002010-02-12T00:36:27.882+00:00I haven't been on the Liberty and I can't ...I haven't been on the Liberty and I can't remember if I told you that I made the top one hundred finalists for Godmother of that ship. As such, I was inivited, along with the other godmother candidates and a number of top cruisers, for a free weekend aboard the Majesty for a relaunch after their "revitalization" right before the Liberty came out. It was such fun as all the RCI brass were on board and all the drinks were complimentary. I just did a weekend on the Oasis, preinaugural, in November, in a balcony, also complimentary. I had sailed on my 77th RCI cruise in Oct for my 65th birthday. I have so many good friends who work for the company and I love the cruise line.RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248477313227907720.post-19616049959562030662010-02-11T14:58:30.157+00:002010-02-11T14:58:30.157+00:00wow!!! a cruise, i have always been fascinated by ...wow!!! a cruise, i have always been fascinated by them, after seeing the pics, im tempted to go on one asap!!!My Unfinished Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17585327291812330305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248477313227907720.post-47691258822221442812010-02-10T21:17:10.628+00:002010-02-10T21:17:10.628+00:00WOW, this is amazing!
