Excellent Walkaround Peter!

I really enjoyed seeing it (again!), but as a Naval Model Contest Jury, I have to make a couple of remarks on "your" Independence of the Seas:
- The portholes below the bridge are way out of scale!
- Do not attempt to replicate the spin of the Portuguese Tug on BFM tugs! I know that they can spin on a dime, but that is just showing off!

Nice shot of the group (I am not drinking any beer, btw)
Cheers, Mate
Thanks for publishing it, Mark

Well i thought it was one of Peter's models at first, but well, i enjoyed that photo report nonetheless

Looks excellent. What a monster of a ship.

Thanks for sharing

It's quite stunning when you compare it with "The Golden Hind", "Mayflower", "Cutty Sark", "HMS Victory" etc.

Looks like you had a great time Peter!

I hope maps are provided. I could get lost on a ship that large.

There are maps on the landings of the staircases, and touch screens to help. The only time we had a problem was when we were trying to find the cinema to watch Shrek 3 but that was our own fault for not reading the map properly - it was so eay to get around wwe expected to find it straight away.
