Oasis of the Seas Arrives at Ft. Lauderdale

Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas - at 225,282 grt, now the largest cruise ship in the world - arrived at her new homeport of Port Everglades at Ft. Lauderdale this morning (November 13, 2009) after a 14-day crossing from the STX Europe shipyard at Turku (Finland). The trip was lengthened by two days due to hurricane force winds and 49-foot seas. (In case you are wondering, the streamer being pulled behind the plane in this photo says, "Coco Cola welcomes Oasis of the Seas.")
The aft view shows the unique open interior structure and the aft AquaTheater for diving shows.
