A classic. She can't carry as many passengers as the Oasis of the Seas, but she's got a lot more class.

Thanks for the pic... she looks fast even when being guided by tugs.

She is tied to a pier on the Philadelphia water front, you can see her funnels and upper structure from the IKEA parkinglot.

My FIL (RIP), was on the Newport News design team for this and other ships. He was a naval architect with some pretty good stories after 40 years of shipyard work. For some reason he would talk to me about it, must’ve been my USN career choice.
