Interesting activities on board the Legend of the Seas | Royal Caribbean Cruise

Compared to Star Cruise, it seems that the 3 nights Royal Caribbean cruise that I recently went have more interesting activities on board. There are always activities around the clock, even if you're not disembarking the ship for your shore excursions. There's even a library on board. Having said that, not all activities are interesting though. :) Always take note of the Cruise Compass, the daily "newsletter" that you'll get in your room. It will show you all the activities for that day, including most importantly, your meal timings. You can get an additional copy at the Purser's Desk at Deck 5.

One thing to take note is the terminology of main seatings and second seatings, especially important as it involves eating. :) This mostly applies to the À la carte Romeo & Juliet Restaurant. Main seating refers to the first timing of the dinner reservation and second seating will be the next timing. They are usually around 2 hours apart (e.g. Main seating: 630pm, Second seating: 830pm). This is important if you are timing yourself for the shows that are shown at night. Sometimes the shows indicate that it is "For Second Seating Guests". This means that if you watch this particular show, you'll be going for your dinner after the show, in time for the "Second Seating".

The evening shows seem to be different from the ones provided by Star Cruise, as it is very musical in nature, and dance related. I thoroughly enjoyed it though due to my interest in these areas, but some may not. I still encourage people to go for it, especially when Gordon, the cruise director is hosting it. He is a very good host, and very hilarious too. :)

By the way, you should do some channel surfing if you have time in your room. The shows there are quite up-to-date. I saw the last Harry Potter movie, and Captain America on their special movie channel. :)

Let's use the pictures to do the talking for the main activities I went on board the ship.

You will see this every floor near the main lifts. They show you your current location and the other areas in the ship

Centrum at Deck 4. Many of the activities are held here, including the farewell party

Christmas tree in the Centrum. The lifts you see goes all the way to Deck 11.

If you want to know the time, just look up from the Centrum. :)

Interesting art near the lift at deck 7

That's Entertainment Theatre, where all the shows are being held. The timing is not standard so remember to take a look at the cruise compass.

The rock climbing wall at one end of the ship at deck 9. It is not always open, due to safety reason

Mini golf course, just behind the rock climbing wall at deck 9.

Indoor swimming pool at Deck 9, within the Solarium. The water is very salty by the way.  There are also jacuzzis with hot water. The pizzas, burgers and hot dogs station are behind the indoor pool.

Outdoor swimming pool at deck 9. There are jacuzzis too with hot water.

The Windjammer Cafe at Deck 9, the place where you'll have your buffet. This is the place where you'll have your lunch on the first day of the cruise.

Interior of the Windjammer Cafe. Take your time to walk around. Food is so so.

Take this "package" after you get your meal. You'll find it in front of the each buffet station. It includes the napkin, a fork and a knife.

Christmas decorations within the Windjammer Cafe. Seems to be made from some candies.

Zoomed in picture of the Christmas decorations within the Windjammer Cafe.

Romeo & Juliet À la carte restaurant at Deck 4 and 5. Food is slightly better than Windjammer Cafe. Do note of which deck to go by referring to the Cruise Compass. It may be different every day.

Viking Crown Lounge at Deck 11. The place where most of the Karaoke happens at night. :)

Interesting towel decoration on my sofa after I came back from an activity

The Rock n Roll party on the last day of the cruise. A MUST go. :)
