An Overview
We've been doing all of our cruising out of Cape Liberty in New Jersey an easy 2-1/2 drive from home.  We've also fallen into the pattern of doing 3 cruises per year.  Once upon a time we would fly to Florida to get on a cruise ship but we simply don't want to go through the air travel, hotel, taxi hassle and expense.    

Symphony of the Seas is one of Royal Caribbean's "Oasis Class Ships".  In other words, one of the big ones.   Her double occupancy capacity is somewhere around of 6,000 passengers (+2,100 crew).  Put more than two in a cabin and the total capacity can reach about 7,000.

As always, I captured a bunch of videos.  All are on YouTube so here are some links.... 
         

Mens Room Art
I like to get out at 6 in the morning and wander around the ship before my first cup of coffee.  I couldn't pass up the opportunity to video the art exhibited in the public men's rooms...
 

The Boardwalk Inside Balcony Cabin
We like these cabins and got one after a successful RoyalUP bid...
   

The Piano Stairs
I found the piano stairs during one of my morning walks...
     
 
The Blue Lagoon Excursion
While in Nassau, we went off on a Blue Lagoon Excursion...




Johnny Rockets
We really enjoy the complementary breakfast available at Johnny Rockets...



Chilling Out With A Stern View
We like kicking back on the chairs available along the stern railing...




There Is Art
There is art all over these ships and usually a car in the Promenade.  On Symphony it happens to be a VW Beetle compressed into a sphere...
