Voyager of the Seas, Royal Caribbean Cruise 2009

My Aunt was very anxious to get us to experience the Royal Caribbean Cruise in Europe, it was Voyager of the Seas cruise that we took because it was the only cruise available that month that departed from Barcelona and was most likely to bring us to the countries that we wished to visit which were Italy, Monaco, and France.

The cruise was quite huge (similar to the size of a regular mall) and somewhat luxurious, however it didn't WOW us that much. Regardless of how gigantic the size of the cruise, we still felt somewhat claustrophobic, presumably cause all of the view we got out of the windows was the horizon of the ocean and the sky. And all of the entertainments were in the the cruise (and plenty caused us to pay again to experience it). (。-`ω´-)

Imagine living in a moving mall, with the view of the ocean and that's the only world you got for a week.
To add the torment, I was seasick all the time, which was weird. That made me really relieved each time the cruise landed in a city. φ(゚▽゚*)♪

By the end of the day, it's still an experience worth to try...
