Vacation Post #1: The Oasis of the Seas

There it is! The biggest cruise ship. It has 17 floors, holds about 10,ooo people, and about 50% or more of the staff is from the Philippines.

So here's a little rundown...
Deck 4 - Ice Skate rink/theater, casino, bars
Deck 5 - Royal Promenade; it reminded me of a Las Vegas hotel
Deck 6 - Boardwalk and Gym/Spa (and our room)
Deck 8 - Central Park (outdoor)
Deck 15 - All Pools and Sports decks; 4 pools, putt putt, zip line, flow rider, ping pong tables...

Other decks we visited - Deck 2 medical, Deck 14 Adventure Ocean Kids Area


This bar was called Rising Tide (blue bottom). It moved between the 5th floor (The Royal Promenade - indoor) and 8th floor (Central Park - outdoor).

Looking down from the sports deck to the boardwalk. Katie's favorite place because it had the carousel. The aqua theater is at the back. We saw a very cool diving/acrobats show there. Mikey LOVED it.

Inside the basketball court on the 15th floor sports/pool deck. There were nets all around the basketball courts, so the balls wouldn't come out.


Looking down from the 16th floor to the "beach" pool on the 15th floor. This pool had salt water and some of the lounge chairs were in water like a beach.

Looking down to the kids pool, from the 16th floor.
Central Park - a look from above.


There's a zip line from one side on the 15th floor to the other. Looking straight down to the 6th floor boardwalk. Can you see the man on the zip line? Red shirt...

Playing putt putt. Mikey loved to play golf on the boat.


Rock climbing wall.
Me in the peanut chair. This was at our last dinner... our chairs reminded me of peanut shells.
