I came across this cruise ship quite unexpectedly when I was in Antwerp last week. It was due to sail off to Rotterdam only a few hours later. When I saw people boarding the ship I enquired if it was open for visitors. Unfortunately, the answer was negative.
Too bad, but never mind, at least I tried! I had fun anyway.
I hope the pictures give you some idea how tall that cruiser really was.

I'd love to sail off on that ship right now and see a different place. Great shots.
Those cruise ships are amazingly huge!! Great perspectives.
Such a grand lady of the seas! All those little windows look like beehives piled one on top of the other! Great photos!
I think that cruise line should hire you to take their publicity shots.
Cruise ships are so big, it makes me wonder if I could be cooped up with that many people for a week or two. :-) But great photos!
Wow, huge is right! I LOVE the shot with the little boy on the hammock. How sweet is that! I admire your guts asking if it was open for visitors. Always good to try.
That is massive, it makes you wonder how is possible to float? I think I might be a little panicky, I am terrified of being in a boat of any size!!! Your photos are so impressive, they really let you feel the scale of the ship!!! Beautiful!

I love your pictures, but I too have no desire to be on a ship with 5,000 people. I once worked on a Norwegian freighter out of New Orleans in 1964, and it was a much much smaller ship. I might like a small ship for a cruise around the Baltic someday. : )
nice pictures ! these are real swimming hotels or even villages. Our cruise ship had 4000 people on board ! staff and passengers included. There was everything on board. I dream again of a cruise !
I can imagine spending a long while there! Wouldn't it be great!?
Great photos..but that cruise ship is TINY compared to the Carnival Cruise ship we took a few years ago. LOL
What a cool looking ship. It's so big too. I never see anything like it around here.
That would be quite a sight to see, especially when you aren't expecting it. I noticed the little boy sitting on a hammock in one of the balconies. My first thought was "What fun!", my second thought was "Is that safe?!" :) I'm sure he was quite safe.
Great shots as always!
