Enchantment of the Seas - RC
Overview
In 2005 Enchantment of the Seas was the third Royal Caribbean ship to be lengthened to increase her capacity and facilities. After she was cut in half, a new, 73-foot middle section containing 151 staterooms and suspension bridges that span the pool area and overhang the sea were added. Not only was the pool area expanded by almost 50%, but four bungee trampolines were installed—a first at sea. For real thrills you can soar high above the bow while safely tethered to the trampoline.
For a buzz of a different sort, a new pool bar juts out over the water where peek-a-boo windows set into the deck afford views of the sea below. Nearby floor-mounted water jets create a splash deck for children that transforms into a lighted fountain after dark. Recreational facilities and the spa were also expanded during the renovation. Not to be overlooked, interiors now include the South Beach-style Bolero's lounge as well as Latte-Tudes coffee and ice-cream bar, a specialty steak-house restaurant, and an enlarged Windjammer Café.

Good perspective and nice colors. Too bad we can't just float away for a couple of months, given the current fares.

Nicely shot, Mark, and thanks for the scoop on all the amenities. They are amzingly luxuriant, aren't they!

Hi Mark, nice shot it reminds me of my Puerto Rico trip and they had three of these babies dock in their harbor. I was in the hotel near by on the third floor and I still could not see the top deck of any of the docked ships. These ships are huge!
