It is one of 5 legs along the entire Pacific Circle Tour,\u00a0 \u00a0The ship is a full cruise at 2000 passengers.\u00a0 That makes for a hungry group of people, which can choose about 12 locations to find food. There are 16 decks in all.\u00a0 Decks 15-7 host a variety of lounges\/ bars and entertainment venues.\u00a0 There are specialized areas for quiet relaxation such as the Sanctuary, the Lotus spa, a stocked library and writing room.
