Nola; Keep up the great work. The only downside to all these great shots is the fact that I'll know the Splendor better when I board Sunday than any other ship I've never sailed prior to sail-a-way! DaveM

Lookin good Nola!

I like the new exterior decks layout waaaaaaay better than that of the Conquest class ships. They really fixed the all the complaints I had:

-The overly complicated stepped design of the main lido area is gone.

-The rear pool has no walls around it, so that bathers can enjoy the near-360 degree ocean views, just like on the Fantasy class.

-The whirlpools at the main pool are not next to it, that should hopefully reduce the number of kids constantly playing in them. Plus the way they put them next to the windows in that new enclosed area above the main pool is really nice!

Also, that spa looks really nice. What do they charge for and whats free?

The gym is free, but downsized, as I understand it. One of these days I may actually sneak a peek. Some of the other facilities you can buy a day pass or a pass for the duration of the cruise.

Pics of supper club were posted, I believe. I know I took some.

If you meant food pics, I've never done one of the pay per view restaurants.

My favorites (not counting all the views you have uploaded of "my" 9A balcony) are the shots of Amsterdam where the streets and people are featured. OMG! Those are so detailed and interesting. You did not upload too many pics. As a picture taking person myself (I just took 45 of a cloud before a storm), I so appreciate yours. Thanks.
