The Norwegian Gem has a beautifully decorated bow and sleek white exterior. The deck areas are nice, with two pools, deck chairs, and hot tubs. The small children have their own kid's pool. We sailed on the Norwegian Gem on a short preview cruise out of Boston on a wintry December day. As you can see by this photo, the pool deck looks a whole lot different than you would expect on a "regular" cruise!

In summary, the Norwegian Gem is a terrific new addition to the NCL fleet and to the cruise industry. Those who love "Freestyle Cruising" should certainly try this ship!
