Jewel of the Seas- Scandinavian/ Russia Cruise

I have conquered land, air and finally the sea!!cruising was a whole different experience for me. It is incomparable to any other vacation i have ever been on. Its very relaxing and a slow holiday. You dont have to worry about your luggage. After loading the luggage on to the bus, the next time you will see it is in your cabin. You dont have to worry about plans and food. Its basically a slow and easy going, hassle free way of travelling. Cruising offers something for everyone. There are cruises meant for elderly people, cruises for families and cruises for younger people. The jewel of the Seas caters for people from different groups of age.The important thing about cruising is it is all about exploring the world.


Jewel of the Seas is one of the new cruise ships belonging to Royal Caribbean. Royal Caribbean international has over 22 cruise ships and jewel of the seas belongs to the Radiance Family group.Here are a few ship facts about the jewel of the seas :

Seems like a city by itself. I knew these ships are huge but never saw the pics of it from the inside. The cabin looks a little small however, alright for a couple but not a family . As for the rock climbing, hmm....told you, lots more exercise and work outs to go..
