The
Boardwalk is yet another innovation that has been introduced for the
first time on the Oasis of the Seas and then rolled out subsequently to
the Allure of the Seas. As guests enter the Boardwalk from the Aft
Lobby on deck six, they are welcomed with a view of the beautiful
carousel. As guests approach the carousel, they pass a series of
sculptures showing the carving process from block of wood to the
finished carousel horse.
Design of the
carousel mostly followed traditional methods save for some critical
differences such as each piece being hollowed out in order for the set
up to be as light as possible. The carousel also was treated to
additional coats of sealant in order for it to be further protected from
the elements. It was also needed to put the mechanics of the
carousel to the test to ensure that it would continue rotating even if
tilting at an angle with choppy seas.
Along the
Boardwalk is a whimsical line up of dining venues all themed with the
spirit of the seaside such as fresh donuts at the Boardwalk Donut Shop,
hamburgers at Johnny Rockets, sweet treats at Candy Beach, and fresh
crab at the Seafood Shack. The Ice Cream Parlor offers generous
helpings with a large variety of flavours and toppings. All ice
cream is made daily by a team of talented pasty chefs.
Guests can use their imagination to
bring their very own pet to life at Pets at Sea. At Smile, guests
can partake in a boardwalk tradition of staging a photo with over one
hundred costumes of their choosing. |
