We Boarded the World’s Newest & Largest Cruise Ship… It Was NOT What We Expected!
Welcome aboard Royal Caribbean’s brand-new Legend of the Seas for her official inaugural sailing! Join our family as we step on board for Day 1 and explore every inch of this incredible ship from top to bottom. We kick off our cruise journey with a classic embarkation routine: heading straight to the famous Windjammer Buffet for a massive lunch, before setting off to explore the ship's most anticipated neighbourhoods and attractions. Our afternoon is packed with endless family activities across the vibrant Surfside area, where the kids enjoy face painting, custom balloon animals, and a fun ride on the Duckie Go-Round. We also make a pitstop at the onboard shops to hunt for exclusive Royal Caribbean merchandise and gear up for the week ahead. From there, we wander over to the breathtaking AquaDome, taking in the futuristic design and refueling with delicious, freshly made sweet crepes at the AquaDome Marketplace. In the midst of the embarkation day excitement, we also take you on a complete cabin tour to show off our incredible stateroom! For this inaugural sailing, we are staying in the highly anticipated Infinite Balcony with a Central Park view, giving you a close-up look at how the innovative floor-to-ceiling retractable window transforms the living space. To help you choose the perfect room for your next Royal Caribbean vacation, we do a side-by-side comparison of our room against a standard Central Park view balcony. We break down the differences in square footage, fresh air flow, and overall atmosphere so you can decide which cabin category is the best fit for your family. As day turns to night, we get ready for our first official dinner service in the Main Dining Room to sample the boarding day evening menu. To top off an unforgettable embarkation day, we grab our seats inside the AquaDome to watch Shockwave, a high-energy AquaShow packed with jaw-dropping high-diving and aerial acrobatics.
