Voyager of the Seas

Truth be told, I was disappointed with the cruise. I had expected it to be a lot more exciting but found it fairly similar to the Star Virgo. I have decided to give it another chance and waited for the Day 2 activities. The ship will dock at Port Klang but we would stay onboard, hoping for lesser crowd and more fun.

I am seriously worried about having to roll home. I had been struggling with my weight the recent months and I blame it on the lower metabolism. Haiz, signs of aging. To compensate for the food galore, I went for a morning jog on the open deck. It was really tiring. I am a treadmill runner and not used to weather conditions. Lol. But I saw sunrise! I felt so much better; at least healthier than the ones were still sleeping in the dark room when I returned. Bcos there was no window, they can probably sleep forever.
I headed back to the deck for more pictures since the rest were still dead asleep. It was wonderful me time with my music.


We had a nice bfast and played some basketball. We also tried swimming, which was very popular with the Indians only to realised that it was sea water!


The kids refused to swim and I can't help wondering how the Indians can soak in that salty pool to no ends.

We also tried ice skating. Each session was only for 30 mins and it was a tiny rink. The kids had fun though. We attempted to go back for a second session in the late afternoon to meet impossible q. Daddy Lim Q for an hour but people (many Indians) started rushing and pushing when the door opened. It was extremely fustrating. Luckily we still managed to get tickets for 3 slots later. The 2nd session wasn't that interesting bcos Zaky had a blister from the earlier session and was whiney. He had to get out of the rink earlier and refused to let me skate. Daddy Lim tied Lil Shauna's skate too tightly and her feet hurt. She also found the 2nd session more boring without us to skate with her.


The kids tried rock climbing too but it was tough for the kids. There was a long q and they were only allowed 2 attempts, which ended in like less than 3 mins. It was totally not worth the Q. T.T




The kids didn't want to try the surf rider; it looked seriously difficult and there was a huge spectator crowd; it wouldnt be nice to fall in front of the crowd. We caught a musical in the evening only to find it boring and we left midway.

The highlight of the day for me must be the dancing under the stars in the late night at 10.45pm. Fionne and Zaky didn't like it though, unlike the Indians who were grooving and copying the crew leading the dance. At the very end, only Lil Shauna and Felicia survived.


They got bored when the band started playing music from decades ago and started waddling in the pool.

We left soon after bcos I was bored too and found it disturbing that the 2 Indian men in the pool were ogling at the girls. Arrgghhhh! See, it wasnt bcos I was simply racist.

It was another late night. Yawn.
