Serenade of the seas

Ever wondered what it takes to build a cruise ship? On May 24th, 2003 I was introduced to the mind-boggling world of modern shipbuilding when I visited Royal Caribbean International's new Serenade of the Seas at her  birthplace: Papenburg, Germany. With a history that dates back to 1795, the family-operated Meyer Werft must be one of the oldest shipyards still operational in the western hemisphere. They sure have come a long way since they delivered their first ship 218 years ago!
