It was a lovely sea day on the Celebrity Equinox and most passengers are on deck to enjoy the sun while cruising through the Straight of Messina. The last time we were here there stood a strong wind between Calabria and Sicily. Now, the Mediterranean Sea is as flat as a mirror.
At the bow you have a clear view. On the upper deck, people are sun bathing or having a drink on one of the terraces. The swimming pool area is very popular, here you have a cocktail bar, hot tubs and live music. Relaxing on the lawn is possible on floor 14, some people play Jeu de boules or just lay there on a towel. In the background you see the mountains of Sicily.
Het was een prachtige dag wanneer de Celebrity Equinox door de Straat van Messina voer. Op onze laatste doorsteek stond hier extreem veel wind tussen Calabrië en Sicilië. Nu is de Middellandse Zee rimpelloos en het water lijkt wel een spiegel.
Aan de boeg heb je vrij zicht en een blauwe hemel. Op de bovenste dekken zijn de passagiers aan het zonnebaden of iets aan het drinken op een terras. Het zwembad bereik is heel populair omwille van de warme bubbelbaden, cocktailbar en live muziek. Ontspanning op het grasveld is mogelijk op dek 14. Sommigen spelen hier Jeu de Boules of liggen te slapen op een handdoek. In de achtergrond zie je de bergen van Sicilië voorbij glijden.
