Penny,

 

Thanks. The rest of the lobby deck was "racked and stacked" yesterday, but by 1:00AM, after a long work week, I was too tired to upload any more.

 

Decks 2 and 1 will be completed in very short order, but I didn't want to promise both of them tonight.

 

This week coming up WILL see the conclusion.

[Max and Ruby]

My family and I are going on the DREAM in June and your photos have me pysched for the trip. Loved how some of the shots gave me ideas as where to sit when my 7 and 4 year old are playing in the slide area.

 

Thanks for posting!

[crewsweeper]

Nice rayjack!:)

 

You need to blog the ship layout and put all the ship pictures, deck by deck then post the blog link in your signature or tag it where a google/bing search will pick it up so others can look the ship up before before sailing. Sorta like zydecocruiser does.

You have me confused...Isn't THIS a blog and haven't I been doing just that for over 40 days?

You're kidding, right?
