Very different from former cruises. Alighted somewhere at the carpark to drop off the luggage. Then we were directed over to main building for security check followed by immigration. There was a separate line for suites and Elite guests. A breeze through check-in to collect the medallion with a 10 mins wait.
Passports were collected and the use of Medallion for check in was fast.
Hubby was hungry and we went to Horizon court for the buffet first. Spread seemed small but some of the dishes are very nice such as the chicken, vegetable and soup.
We went to the back of Horizon court and saw Genting Dream approaching the pier.
Watched the guitarist and vocal, Ian Frost, at the Grand plaza.
At Sant Fe which is the reserve dining for suite guests. Service was great. Hubby loves his tenderloin a lot. The French fries was awesome. The patty a bit dry but the bacon was good for my burger. A lot of people recommended the orange souffle but I felt its a bit too sweet. Paradise punch cocktail was very good. Hubby took Pinoit Noir red wine.
Ample space on the dressing table. I am able to use two travel adaptors to charge my devices.
The hair dryer is attached to the wall
2 TVs. One facing the bedroom and the other facing the living area. Quite a lot of movies available as well as ESPN. Hubby watched the premier league.
Large table at the balcony if we want to dine at the balcony.
There is a USB charging on the lamp by the side of the beds.
The safe box is the biggest I have seen in a cruise ship.
There are water jets on the bath tub.
Love that the bath tub is separated from the standing shower.

My stateroom steward is Garry. He brought in a bottle of wine and gave us his contact. Room service brought in the fruit basket and canapes. There is a complementary mini bar set up with 2mini vodka, 2 mini ginger, 2 mini scotch, 2 mini cognac, 2 mineral water bottle, 2 sparkling mineral worse, 2 yokohama beer, 2 asahi beer, 2 sprites and 2 coke.
Watched the sail away from the room.
At Sabatini for dinner. Its a speciality dining which is included under premier package. The bread garlic cheese and focaccia were good Appetiser Tuscan soup Ribollita and Insalita Mista salad were equally good though I felt the soup was a bit salty.
The Arancini Al Tartufa which is Italian fried rice with cheese was very good, better than the one we had at Anthem of the Sea.
I had fried prawn and calamari which I find too salty. Hubby like his tradition Italian seafood stew of mussel and prawn.
Hubbylso ordered Futteucine al Tartufo e Pamigiano and the pan seared sea bass was awesome. Very crispy at the edge and fresh.
Went to the theatre for the 7.15pm show on the Bloom, a performance by the Seventh Wonder on Fleetwood Mac songs. The cruise director said there are 2737 guests onboard and more than half are Americans followed by Australian. There are only 51 Singaporeans onboard.
Awesome performance by the Seventh wonder on Fleetwood Mac songs.
At Wheelhouse bar enjoying the music. Ordered coffee, hot chocolate and fruits. Let's see how fast the drinks and fruits will arrive. Oceannow delivery make use of the medallion to locate us. It took less than 10 mins!
Love the music by guitarist and vocal Ian Frost. What touched me are those who are on the dance floor. I am pretty sure each couple has a story to tell, with many years treasuring each other's company.
Ordered room service as hubby needed warm milk and they gave him one cup. I was shocked as i told them to give me 2 pack of milk and they delivered such a big pack. The cheese cake is awesome. However the chicken noodle soup is too salty.
