Our Celebrity Infinity cruise had 6 sea days, so we had time to experience many of the Infinity's onboard activities. Since we had gorgeous sunny weather, many Infinity passengers spent their days lounging outside by the pool, enjoying a book, listening to music, playing basketball or paddle tennis, or napping in the sun or shade. Others gathered around the indoor thallassotherapy pool, had a spa treatment, or worked out in the fitness center. Of course, the casino was open while we were at sea, but only a few dedicated gamblers seemed to hang out there during the daylight hours.

The Infinity had a good variety of educational opportunities for those who felt they should do something "productive".

  • Colonel James W. Reid, adventurer, explorer, author, and an expert on South America, lectured several times during the cruise. His perspective on South America culture, history, people, art, and sites was invaluable in improving our understanding of this fascinating continent.
  • Naturalist Kate Spencer gave some interesting presentations on South American wildlife and ecology.
  • Aspiring chefs or those who love to cook all showed up for the Celebrity Infinity's executive chef and his staff's presentations on cooking and cuisine.
  • The computer room staff taught several software courses, and I heard great things about the Photoshop Elements class.
  • The golf pro gave golf clinics or was available for lessons.

For those who like organized games, the Infinity had several trivia, bingo, card, or audience participation games each day.

Movies in the cinema and book discussions in the library were also in the daily schedule. Finally, if none of the schedule appealed to the passengers, they could always find something to eat, browse the numerous shops, or take a long nap in their cabin to get ready for the evening's activities.
