Settled in on Voyager

Now that it's been more than a week since I arrived, I am back into the normal routine of Studio B.  Sure it may be a different show than on Explorer, but everything else is largely the same.  The production team here has been great so far, and hopefully I will be able to continue working towards the light tech position.  An interesting part of working on Voyager of the Seas is that it has some weird quirks about it.  Since it was the first of its kind and as such contained many new innovations in cruising, there were of course some lessons that were learned after building Voyager which were used to improve on future builds.  This means that there are some aspects to Voyager of the Seas which do not match any other Voyager-class ship.  Those differences are among the very few things I've had to learn since I signed-on.

My family and some friends are cruising with me next week.  That should be a lot of fun and the first time such an occasion has happened for me while working at sea.

  2. Hi Simon,

    I have seen Shane while changing the banners on the promenade in the evening. He is a really great entertainer.
