Deck 05DECK PLANA main focus of deck five is the outdoor promenade, Lanai. A rarity now-a-days, it entirely encircles the ship.View from the front of the promenade, looking forward.Cherry on Top on the LanaiBack inside, the front of the deck is the second floor of the Liquid Lounge.Liquid Lounge Second LevelBehind that is the top floor of the main atrium and around it are the ships main shops. They are always closed when in port.The Fun ShopsSecond Deck of Vista Atrium Tucked in the corner as you exit is the Cherry on Top candy store.

I say ‘atrium-like’ since you can see the center is glassed off. This is so that the smoking from the Casino doesn’t emanate to other parts of the ship. Really clever design.Aft Atrium.
