Kelli and Anton have joined Allure of the Seas, gone from African shores for the next nine months.

Allure

Allure of the Seas has just been named Best Cruise Ship by Travel Weekly readers for the second year in the row. But this isn’t just a cruise ship. With over 2000 staff, it’s an adventure that sails way ahead of the curve. Explore seven singular neighborhoods, from the winding paths of Central Park to the ultimate rush of the Pool and Sports Zone. Surfing. Ziplining. Ice-skating. 3D movies…..a huge range of entertainment, dining and wellness.

Gorgeous deck views….

Sailing out of Port Everglades, The Allure is a mixture between a swimming city and an amusement park with its “Central Park” where more than 12000 real plants grow, the “Royal Promenade” which is designed like an English seaside resort and the many restaurants, cafés.

Oh My GOODNESS!…..There are Broadway-style shows, a comedy club, ice revues, acrobatic shows in the Aqua Theatre or you can gamble at the Casino Royale. You can dance the night away at “Blaze” or “Jazz on 4”. At the elegant “Dazzles” you can get dance classes during the day and enjoy theme parties and dancing contests.

Deck 15 offers….swimming pools and Jacuzzis, the H2O-Zone for children, a solarium, playing fields for basketball and volleyball, a climbing wall, miniature golf, two surfing simulators, a jogging track and a zip-line where you can swing on a line over the ship.

Of course Kelli and Anton will hardly get to do all that….!!

….they will be far too busy working extremely hard (as far as I can gather!) on Deck 5 and 6, the Spa and Fitness centre…

This huge fitness area is matched by one of the largest spas on a cruise liner. Yum, it can cater for doubles massages….bliss….

A world apart from normal life, Kelli and Anton will have a testing year of hard work and challenge, mixed up with a whole lot of FUN!

Kelli’s ship last year was the MS Statendam- a pretty little ship, seen here sitting next to Kelli’s glitzy new posting, big sister Allure!!!!

I am entranced…Romero Britto Art is displayed on board the Allure…

here is his painting of the ship…

His iconic style of joyous pop art is very seductive…I am in love!

simple economy of line and color…POW!

An exciting year ahead for kelli and Anton, sailing through western and eastern caribbean ports…
