Summary
Perhaps no cruise ship other than Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of the Seas has garnered as much attention this year, and this week, I have returned from my 2-night adventure on Anthem of the Seas to share with you my entire experience.
It was a terrific experience and it changed the way I look at the Quantum class ships. Let’s talk about the many experiences, dining, entertainment and everything else inbetween on this week’s episode.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Royal Crime Blog podcast, a weekly look into the world of Royal Caribbean cruising. |
| 0:21.3 | I'm your house Matt Hodgeburg, and this is episode number 191. |
| 0:25.1 | Few things seem to go by as quickly as Royal Caribbean cruises, including my recent cruise aboard Anthem of the Seas. |
| 0:30.3 | We had a fantastic time on Anthem of the Seas, and this week I'll be reviewing my recent seven-night Bahamas sailing on Anthem and talk about my stateroom, |
| 0:38.1 | the sweet experience, the specialty dining, entertainment on board, and the places we visited. |
| 0:43.0 | Here we go. |
| 0:47.4 | What's interesting to me is I've gone on many railcoming cruises over the years, and just when I think I've really got it down, I really know everything and I've got a pattern, so to speak, I go on a cruise and I totally change everything that I do. |

| 1:36.6 | day on our cruise day, usually as many of you know, I get to the cruise port ridiculously early. |
