Anthem of the Seas was the trip that ended way to soon. The activities aboard the ship (see below) insured that time moved too quickly even when it rained. Of course if you decide to slow down time by resting the 2 pools (indoor & outdoor) gave you plenty of time to do just that but for extra active people such as I this trip was time well spent even if it passed like a day. The Dynamic dining led to many choices that aren’t available on many other ships and although it’s not 5 star the food satisfies the active stomach. I know part of the journey of such a trip is the destination but I went more for the travel then the arrival and both exceeded their marks. The only negative comment I find is there wasn’t that personal touch that help lead you and your group to the correct path and the journey to fun was all up to you. I’m glad that this is path I could navigate.
ACTIVITIES PARTICIPATED IN AND REVIEW
(1) Air Hockey-Dynamo table need I say more- extra $$
(2) Thriller Dance Class- Difficult but loads of fun.
(3) Shows- The best show was “The Gift” but I had a bit more fuel to enjoy it yet any show featuring Van Halen 5150 is a winner to me. “We will Rock You” didn’t rock me that much for the story was too silly but I kept tapping my foot. Spectre was meant for those taking the illegal form of fuel although it was quite entertaining.
(4) Bon Jovi tribute band one word… AWESOME
(5) Dodgeball loads of fun even if I lasted a minute
(6) Art Auction- All I can say is a bought some paintings when my attention was to get a free glass of Champagne.
(7) FlowRider- I became an expert surfer (in my mind) after 2 tries do to a great instructor and “hanging loose”. Bring a towel it gets windy in the back of the ship.
(8) Ripcord- I’m now ready to jump out of plane or at least see it in the movies. Awesome feeling that needs to be experienced at least once.
(9) Gym- It wasn’t NYSC but it’s good to change up the routine and there assortment of machines helped make sure the lbs of eating went to the right spot. Benching is a bit more challenging.
(10) Karaoke- Who doesn’t enjoy singing among total strangers? Of course I don’t but they might … those tomatoes were delicious.
