Food of course is a major attraction on a cruise and Ovation does not let you down. Our evening dining room, Chic was gorgeous and our waiters, Jan and
Muligan saw to every need and made our dining times very special. We were spoilt with choices and service. The Windjammer main Buffet was full of every type of
food you would like. Fresh vegetables and meats all looked like they had been professionally prepared (as they had) and set out beautifully for us to choose our
dishes. The man from the ceiling spoke to us in the mornings and made us smile with a funny joke which did lend a bit of humour to the day. Staff were so
efficient one did not even need to get a coffee, one look and it was there! There are speciality restaurants on board, Jamies Italian, Wonderland, Izumi, Chops
Grill, Chefs Table and others so everyones taste is catered for. The Amber and Oak is a pub that sells food and drink and of course one could order any special drink
from the Bionic Bar and watch automation in action.

A walk around this huge ship showed the many activities and services it had to offer. Many people commented on the walking track that completely
encircled the ship. Great as each morning we were invited to walk a mile with the crew and many did that. Ripcord, Wave Rider, Rock climbing wall and so many other
outside venues were easy to find. Pools abound and the children area was always well used. Outside movie screen was easy to see and the evening shows were another option.
The main street or Promenade was very easy to negotiate and shops were easy to find.

One of the special events was to celebrate Easter and Windjammers made sure there were enough Easter eggs for all! The cake that was specially
prepared fed many hungry kids and adults as well and made the occasion very special. Apparently the Chefs spent all night creating this huge cake and it was very well received.

Different views of some of the other areas available like the Adults only Solarium and the inside pools with the spas that were well used. Lots of deck chairs
and of course cafes everywhere for food.

More pictures of some of the areas to explore and a special touch was the towel animals that appeared on our bed every night. Sometimes they made it
to hang off our curtain so it was always a surprise. They did look good wearing our glasses and our lovely cabin attendant, I. Gede did a great job.
